Sierra del Colmenar 1A, a new late Messinian (Late Miocene) locality in the Bajo Segura Basin (SE Spain): biostratigraphic and palaeoenvironmental im…
2017
In this paper, we have studied a new micromammal site from the Sierra del Colmenar section (Elche, SE Spain), named Sierra del Colmenar 1A (SCO-1A), representing the uppermost levels of Messinian age of the Bajo Segura Basin. The sedimentary context of this locality corresponds to a costal lagoon with marine influence. The fossil site has yielded remains of Apodemus aff. gorafensis, Paraethomys meini, Apocricetus alberti, Occitanomys alcalai, Ruscinomys sp., Eliomys cf. truci, Muscardinus sp., Parasorex ibericus, Prolagus michauxi and Soricidae indet. Based on this assemblage, we propose a Late Miocene age (MN13) for the locality SCO-1A, matching the previously inferred age for the stratigr…
The Messinian stromatolites of the Sierra del Colmenar (Western Mediterranean): facies characterization and sedimentological interpretation
2018
A representative outcrop of the Messinian stromatolites belonging to the Terminal Carbonate Complex unit, from the northern sector of the Bajo Segura basin (Caja de Ahorros del Mediterraneo section, Sierra del Colmenar, SE Spain) has been studied. Here, we present a detailed analysis of the architecture, external morphology, and internal morphology in order to reconstruct the environmental and palaeoecological conditions for their growth. The stromatolites macrostructure consists of a continuously doming type morphology (build up and sheets areas).These developed close to the coast and acted as a palaeogeographic barrier, reducing physical stress, channeling the erosive effect of water and …
Agrarian Elites and types of Caciquism. The Rafal/Vía Manuel Family from the Crisis of Absolutism to the Crisis of the Restoration Regime
1998
El trabajo trata de explorar la utilidad de la historia social de la política, analizando los rasgos y estrategias de diversos sectores de la nobleza en el contexto del cambio social a partir de la revolución liberal. Se observan tipos diversos de caciquismo en cuanto a sus rasgos sociales y sus raíces políticas, su relación con el poder económico propio y la injerencia del Estado en las rivalidades políticas. Los sectores populares podían hacer valer sus aspiraciones a partir de estas rivalídades entre diversas oligarquías. This article seeks to explore the usefulness of a social history of politics. The authors study the different heritage and political strategies of several noble familie…
