Abstract

The Azuer archaeological site is the most representative site of a typology of peculiar settlements of the Bronze Age in La Mancha (2200-1300 BC) called “motillas”, unique within the Universal Recent Prehistory. It is the only excavated “motilla” and its study has provided abundant information about this circular plan fortification, which includes a town and its necro- polis, and about the way of life of the people who settled in this territory (Nájera, 1984; Peña et al., 2009; Fernández, 2010, Nájera et al. 2012; Torres, 2015). The “motillas” developed during a period of wet climate (Santisteban et al. 2016) and are equidistant about 4 to 5 kilometers, along the floodplain of the Azuer River and the Guadiana River. In the Guadiana, and in the surroundings of the National Park of Las Tablas de Daimiel, there are the Motilla de las Cañas, the Motilla de la Parrilla and the Motilla de Calatrava la Vieja. The geological and geophysical studies carried out in this environment, as well as the sedimentological and chronological analysis of three mechanical cores drilled in their proximity indicate that, during the Bronze Age, the landscape was formed by sandy rivers with poorly defined vegetated margins, where organic matter accumu- lated, and flooded areas, like those that presently characterize the wetland, were very scarce.
