In this text we analyze a remarkable Islamic dam located in Sierra de Segura, dated from the 12th century. The size of the dam, 11 m high and 9 m thick, its location in a mostly flat area, the technique used to build it, the reservoir that it created, etc. makes dams a very singular element among the irrigation architecture in Al-Andalus. In addition to describing the dam, we also intend to discuss to which point the purpose of this structure was truly different from what was usually done at that time, and, therefore, if it means both a technological and social change, or if its configuration hid other objectives. | En este texto analizamos una notable presa islámica localizada en la Sierra de Segura, fechada en el siglo XII.
