“…Firstly, exploring why religious ideas and practices have moved, scholars have gained insights into the intersections between religion and significant social, cultural, and political processes. This has included insights into religion's relationships with empire building (DeRogatis, 2003; Lehr & Katz, 1995; Neal Leavelle, 2004; Porter, 2004; Quesada‐Garcia, 2022; Wainwright, 2009); war and conflict (Banerjee, 2018; Burlacioiu, 2018; Cunningham, 2013; Gregory et al., 2013; Stump, 2005); migration (Burlacioiu, 2018; Kark, 1983); and trade (Michaelopoulos et al., 2018; Smith, 2018). In particular, explorations of the geographical spread of Christianity since the seventeenth century have critically reflected on its contributions to colonial expansion, cultural imperialism, and race‐based violence (Taithe, 2009; Vallgårda, 2016).…”

“…-se comenzarían a poblar por una incipiente población árabe y beréber, centrada también en procesos de producción basados en la agricultura. Estos pobladores, al ocupar los territorios más accesibles, controlarían también las vías de comunicación y los cauces de los ríos (Quesada-García, 2022). Todos esos recursos económicos y productivos, necesariamente relacionados geográficamente entre sí, provocarían tensiones entre los diferentes grupos étnicos establecidos en una misma comarca, además de revueltas de la sociedad rural andalusí contra las diferentes administraciones islámicas, almorávides o almohades.…”

The heritage of military architecture brings together many fields; it’s been called an “inexhaustible source of research and perspectives” for architects, engineers, archaeologists, historians, and operators in the field of cultural heritage. The subject of knowledge and valorization of fortification works presupposes a multidisciplinary approach aimed at recognizing the different values found in the constructions. Only recently has there been an awareness of the importance of this heritage, which is in constant danger; such attention has helped in defining a series of international strategies “for the protection, conservation, interpretation and preservation of fortifications and military heritage” (ICOMOS Guidelines on fortifications and military heritage, 2021). FORTMED 2023 moves within this rich cultural context in the belief that the dissemination of data is the essential tool for sharing knowledge. The international conference Fortifications of the Mediterranean Coast, FORTMED 2023, opens its sixth edition in Pisa. The conference, organized by the Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell’Energia, dei Sistemi, del Territorio e delle Costruzioni (DESTeC) of the University of Pisa, in collaboration and with the contribution of the Municipality of San Giuliano Terme, will be held on March 23, 24, and 25, 2023, at the Centro Congressi Le Benedettine.

“…Landscape, cartography, and toponymy are intertwined because of their links to territories and human activity. All three involve ways of understanding and describing the organization of the space where humans carry out their activities [1][2][3]. On the one hand, a geographical name has the primary function of naming a place and acting, at the same time, as a semantic and locating function [4,5].…”

Toponymy, a transversal discipline for geography, linguistics, and history, finds one of its main supports in cartography. Due to exhaustiveness on the territory, cadastral cartography and its toponymy have the ideal characteristics to develop systematic geographical analyses. Moreover, cadastre and geographical names are part of the geographic reference data according to Annex 1 of the INSPIRE directive. This work presents the design, implementation, and application of a methodology based on Geographic Information Systems and Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) tools for detecting coincidences between the cadastral geoinformation and the official gazetteer corresponding to the province of Gipuzkoa, Spain. Methodologically, this study proposes a solution to the issues raised by bilingualism in the study area. This problem is approached a priori, in the previous data treatment, and a posteriori, applying semantic criteria. The results show a match between the datasets of close to 40%. In this way, the uniqueness and richness of the analyzed source and its outstanding contribution to the potential integration of the official toponymic corpus are evidenced.
