Résumé

This paper deals with the importance of historic cartography and engravings as a useful method for archaeologists, who have not paid enought attention to this sort of documents. In this case, we analyze the cartographic material representing Gibraltar Bay in the Centro Geográfico del Ejército, in Madrid. They are more than one hundred maps from XVIIIth to XXth century that allow us to know about the conditions of both ladscape and remains of the ancient territorium of Carteia.
