Resumen:Las sacas constituyen el ejemplo más claro de la dimensión mortífera que alcanzaron las prácticas represivas cometidas en la retaguardia franquista a comienzos de la Guerra Civil. Siguiendo el rastro de las mismas dejado en diversas fosas excavadas en la provincia de Burgos, nos planteamos aproximarnos, por un lado, al modus operandi y, por otro, a los paisajes que acogieron estas ejecuciones masivas tan escasamente estudiados desde la perspectiva arqueológica. Palabras clave:Arqueología del Conflicto; Fosa común; Paisaje de terror; Violencia; Saca. Abstract:Removal of prisioners (sacas in Spanish) is the clearest example of the repressive acts committed on the Francoist rearguard at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. Precisely, the main aim of this paper is, on the one hand, to analyse the modus operandi followed by the rebel forces for removing and killing hundreds of prisoners considered Republican sympathizers, and on the other hand to examine the terror landscapes where this kind of mass executions took place. For this, we will focus on results of different mass graves excavated in the Castilian province of Burgos. Key words: Conflict Archaeology; Mass Grave; Terror Landscape; Violence; Removal.
