Journal Title: Alquipir - Year 2022, Vol 17, Issue 1
Abstract
Caravaca is a city marked by its medieval past, key to understanding its current configuration. A marked period, where the legend and the truth are mixed. We are talking about the milestone that would mark its historical importance at an international level, such as the Vera Cruz and the Caballos del Vino. It will be from this moment when Caravaca becomes a landmark of Christianity. Based on its tradition and religious legacy, it will evolve, shape itself and build itself as a city. Development which, unfortunately, has been investigated in a way that ignores, or does not go into depth, the role or work that women played in all of this. Many of these women were decisive in understanding what Caravaca is today. Therefore, this research aims to analyse the historical, urban and cultural evolution of Caravaca, focusing mainly on the women who actively participated or indirectly influenced the development of its historical process. Without forgetting, of course, the importance of the Vera Cruz in its history.
