La mezquita del fortín emiral del Tossal de la Vila (Castellón). Secuencia estratigráfica y diseño arquitectónico de un edificio religioso rural en los albores del islam andalusí

Abstract: Este trabajo presenta los recientes resultados procedentes de la excavación en extensión del sector 14 del yacimiento arqueológico del Tossal de la Vila (Serra d’en Galceran, Castellón), durante la cual se ha recuperado un edificio que identificamos como la mezquita comunitaria adscrita a este recinto fortificado de época emiral. Se trata de un oratorio rural situado dentro de una fortificación que no cuenta con un área de poblamiento estable anexa a ella, y que presenta una secuencia de ocupación que abarca, … Show more

“…Owing to recent survey work and the revision of museum collections, but also to systematic archaeological excavations, we now have a considerably extended list of sites, which presents a panorama that is clearly richer in detail. To Bazzana's first group of sites in which living spaces and greater complexity in poliorcetic techniques were identified, we have added the paradigmatic and extensively excavated case of Tossal de la Vila (Negre et al 2020a(Negre et al , 2020b(Negre et al , 2021(Negre et al , 2022Pérez-Polo et al 2023a, 2023b, as well as other cases that have similar characteristics, which are still under study, i.e., El Castellar and La Mola de Genessies. As regards the second group of sites, we could add other examples of large enclosures that have no internal structure, including El Gaidó, El Morico, El Puig de la Mola and El Puig de Gallicant (Bazzana and Guichard 1979;Miret 2011, pp.…”

“…Two structures are the only free-standing buildings documented at the site. One is a rectangular living space, identical to the simple structures attached to the wall but built using clearly better construction methods, and the other is a large building with a surface area of 60 m 2 that has been identified as a mosque (Negre et al 2022). This place of worship is, to date, one of the earliest Islamic rural temples documented in the Iberian Peninsula.…”

“…The entire central space of the settlement is free of buildings, with the exception of two free-standing structures, one described as a 'privileged' residence and the other as a mosque for communal use [5]. With regard to the different areas excavated protected by the wall, up to three different forms of modulation were identified.…”

“…In this study, we present the most important archaeobiological results from recent research performed at the Tossal de la Vila archaeological site, with the aim of highlighting the economic strategies developed at the settlement during its two phases and the occupants' relationship with the surrounding biotic resources. We used a comparative approach between its only two moments of occupation: first, as a hamlet from the late Bronze Age to the early Iron Age (8th-7th centuries cal BCE), and second, as a hillfort from the early Andalusi period (8th-10th centuries CE) (Tables 1 and 2) [1][2][3][4][5].…”

“…Es desde el ámbito rural que, una vez más, podría surgir algo de luz. Se ha considerado que asentamientos fortificados edificados con piedra seca, como el Tossal de la Vila (Castellón), fechados en época emiral y que incluyen una mezquita en el tejido construido, podrían haber albergado una población de carácter militar durante periodos discontinuos más o menos largos (Negre et al, 2020;Negre et al, 2022) . ¿Intento de controlar la zona por parte del emirato omeya cordobés?…”
