Desde una perspectiva antropológica, esta comunicación pretende mostrar la fecundidad del análisis histórico y actual de las religiosidades, y las advocaciones marianas, desde las dos orillas, mediante una concepción global de carácter atlántico, tanto insular como continental. Prestará especial atención a tres cuestiones, una relacionada con la utilidad simbólica de las advocaciones marianas en las relaciones atlánticas, otra con los procesos de reinvención local, comarcal y nacional de algunas advocaciones, mostrando fenómenos de sincretismo y asociaciones simbólicas múltiples en contextos multiétnicos y, por último, su estrecha vinculación con fenómenos de migración, de ida y de retorno.

Este trabajo consiste en un itinerario cultural y natural que recorre el Barranco del Draguillo. Este "monumento natural" que sirve de frontera entre los municipios de Telde e Ingenio, alberga una buena cantidad de especies endémicas, tanto animales como vegetales. Además, el barranco contiene una población aborigen de dimensiones considerables. Este trabajo persigue unificar el patrimonio cultural con el natural, demostrando así la conexión intrínseca que existe entre estos dos elementos. Se apuesta también por un modelo de explotación y gestión de los bienes que no resulte lesivo para el medio ambiente y que busca la comprensión del Patrimonio Histórico dentro de su contexto.

Characterizing the degree of disturbance in archaeological deposits is critically important for archaeologists assessing foraging strategies, environmental conditions, or behavior patterns of ancient human groups. Qualitative techniques (e.g. micromorphology analysis) have previously been applied to assess the degree of disturbance (age-mixing) in archaeological sites; however, quantitative dating of material in the sites provides a more robust assessment of potential age-mixing. Unfortunately, because of budget constraints, archaeologists are frequently forced to rely on few quantitative age dates for an assemblage, thus obfuscating the signal of age-mixing of the deposit. The development of an affordable and rapid carbonate-target accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) radiocarbon (C-14) dating method provides a cost-effective way to retrieve more quantitative dates from carbonate material in archaeological assemblages to assess the degree of age-mixing in the deposit. This study tests this new technique and dates numerous harvested marine limpet shells from archaeological sites in the Canarias to determine whether there is multidecadal to multicentennial age-mixing. A total of 58 shells retrieved from six sites and three islands yielded uncalibrated radiocarbon ages ranging from 2265 +/- 40 to 765 +/- 35 BP, coinciding with the time of prehistoric human occupation in these islands. While most shells from the same stratum showed statistically equivalent ages, in some cases we detected age ranges that exceeded the imprecisions from analytical errors. This investigation is one of the first to quantitatively illustrate that shells retrieved from depth intervals without evident stratigraphic disturbance do not always contain contemporaneous remains and, therefore, dating each specimen is valuable for developing further paleoclimatic and paleoanthropological inferences. This study presents the first report of carbonate-target C-14 ages from archaeological shell middens, and suggests that this novel radiocarbon methodology can be applied to these sites, thus allowing the generation of a more comprehensive chronology.

El presente artículo pretende ser un primer análisis y comparativa de los diferentes sitios de enterramientos indígenas de Fuerteventura y La Palma, sus formas, material utilizado, unidad geográfica de acogida y ubicación. A través testimonios de las fuentes historiográfica (crónicas y estudios históricos sobre las Islas), fuentes arqueológicas (cartas arqueologías y excavaciones con metodología estratigráfica) y prestando especialmente atención a la tradición oral ante la carencia de estudios específicos sobre el mundo funerario ya sean de carácter arqueológico o bioantropológico para Fuerteventura. Por el contrario, La Palma dispone de más evidencias funerarias y de un elevado repertorio de piezas óseas fundamentalmente resultante del acto expoliador, por lo que la información con la que contamos resulta limitada, a pesar de tener contabilizadas más de 230 cuevas sepulcrales. Con estos condicionantes abordamos el análisis del mundo funerario de ambas islas, con el objeto de observar semejanzas y diferencias.

In the last years, diachronic studies on the Spanish spoken in the Canarias have fortunately taken root and contributed with relevant findings on the functioning and uses of the language in the previous periods, mainly throughout the 18th and 19th centuries.These studies complete in a significant way the scarce material traditionally available on the early stages of the Spanish language in the Canary group, which is exclusively devoted to the vocabulary and scattered in literary, ethnographic, historical and scientific works.Besides, the progressive availability of the manuscript sources, particularly the nineteenth-century ones, has made visible a wide amount of information, extremely relevant for the analysis.A good example of the advantages granted by this kind of documents can be seen in a text from La Palma, written in 1815, and analyzed in this paper.

This work aims to analyse the attitude towards circular economy (CE) and the environmental behaviour and circular practices among tourists of a well-known mature sun and beach destination. The study was conducted on a sample of tourists who visited Gran Canaria and stayed at a hotel establishment. Findings show that: (a) Older tourists have a higher pro-environmental or circular attitude in hotel establishments than younger ones; (b) most tourists are willing to pay more for environmentally friendly or green hotels and this is related to socio-demographic variables; (c) the majority of tourists believe that it is important for the hotel to have an energy-saving policy; (d) tourists' attitude towards circular practices varies according to socio-economic profile; (e) the most common sustainable hotel practices carried out by tourists are the use of recycling bins and reusable towel and linen schemes; (f) women report a higher circular behaviour than men; and (g) 86.5% of tourists carry out the same CE practices on holidays as in their place of residence. Study findings could be useful to design the transition from a linear model to a circular model in the hotel industry of a destination as it identifies the areas that the industry must promote to reach this transition.

En la calurosa mañana del 6 junio de 2014, rastreando la información de los grupos de mujeres en los fondos de la Fundación Salvador Seguí de Madrid me topé con un nombre cuyo apellido reconocí inmediatamente como cercano, fue un golpe de salitre en el rostro: Teresa González de Chávez. Desde ese día comencé a seguir los pasos de una canaria que había transitado desde la década de los 70 el movimiento anarcofeminista en Madrid. Recorrí papeles, escritos, artículos de periódicos, actas de reuniones… De manera casual el destino me fue presentando a compañeros y amigos que la conocían quienes me fueron ayudando a desentrañar las luchas en las que Teresa fue tejiendo lazos y resistencias partiendo desde las brumas de nuestra Orotava hasta abrazar la revolución zapatista en las lejanas regiones de Chiapas. Tiempo después, en febrero de 2017 el primer día del I congreso “Las otras protagonistas de la Transición”, la suerte me premió, en Madrid de nuevo, cuando una mujer tomó la palabra para hacerme un par de puntualizaciones sobre mi intervención: por su acento y modo de hablar reconocí que se trataba de ella. Gracias a este encuentro, y desde entonces, he podido compartir conversaciones, entrevistas, recuerdos, reflexiones, risas y cariños con una compañera y amiga a la que desde estas páginas quiero también rendir mi sentido homenaje al tiempo que reivindico la relevancia de su testimonio militante en la configuración de una memoria de las luchas feministas en la historia reciente del estado español. Considero que es una figura tan interesante porque a través de su recorrido vital podemos realizar aportaciones que esclarecen dos puntos que unen mis líneas de investigación, dos nódulos de intersección de lucha feminista: los inicios de la emancipación de las mujeres canarias a finales del franquismo y la reactivación del feminismo libertario en el estado español desde el año 1975.

Guanche mummies from Tenerife have been a permanent focus of attraction for scholars from many countries, especially Europeans, and for the population of the island since the moment of the conquest (1496) when they were known by the Spaniards. Chroniclers of the conquest and ulterior historians of the Canaries wrote on these valuable specimens, on the mummification methods used by the Guanches and what the mummies represented for that society. However, until very recently the research lacked of direct observation and analyses using modern scientific methods and techniques. We will discuss in this chapter the history of these mummies, the analysis of the problems of human colonization of islands, and the comparative study between the mummified population (the elite of Guanche society) and the skeletal population represented by a larger number of individuals, in order to check differences and similarities from the demographic, dietary, nutritional, and pathological perspectives.

Two of the several rock script panels found at Mt. Tenezara volcano slope, Lanzarote Is. (Canarias) have been analyzed. Both of them contain a linear writing which corresponds to the ancient Iberian semi-sillabary discovered by Gomez-Moreno in 1949 AD, thus to Iberian-Guanche inscriptions which previously were referred as Latin. Ancient Iberian scripts have been found in France, Portugal, Spain and other Mediterranean places during the 1st millennium BC and the following four centuries AD; it may be possible that Iberian signs could have been taken or used at the same time at Africa. Even one of the semi-vertical panels considered as Lybic is in fact written in Iberian-Guanche characters. Also, Mt Tenezara shows Cart-ruts pointing to Equinoxes Sunrise. Findings are put in the context of a Sahara relatively rapid desiccation and a massive people migration to establish several classic and pre-classic civilizations, like Sumer, Egypt, Hittite, Hellenistic, Iberians, Lybic and Canarias Guanches, and possibly other Old Atlantic Celtic ones. Saharan Hypothesis is based on Geology, Columbia Shuttle (1981) infrared photographs that show prehistoric desert fertility, Prehistory, Anthropology and Linguistics. A fertile and heavily populated Sahara existed before 6,000 years BC.

In the early 2000s, the Parliament of the Canarias passed a series of tourism moratoria to restrict the growth in tourism supply. Even though the effects of moratoria have been covered in the literature, there is little quantitative evidence about their economic impact on the destinations, particularly in relation to the goal of increasing the quality of the accommodation supply. In order to fill this gap, this paper employs both regression and computable general equilibrium (CGE) methods to estimate the economic impact of the increased 5-star capacity acquired by the Canarias during the three moratoria periods between 2003 and 2017. The regression results show that the successive moratoria had a significant impact on the 5-star hotel supply in the Islands, while the CGE model translates the extra capacity into a positive impact on social welfare, with output increases in the sectors that complement tourism activity.

The aim of this paper is to analyze empirically the effect that several kinds of risks, associated with hypothetical oil drillings in the Canarias, could have on the behavioral intentions of tourists. A panel survey collected from 639 nonresident tourists about destination image, risk perception, and intention to visit or recommend the islands. The risks associated with the possible oil extractions significantly harming perceived image and behavioral intention by around 43%, with the intention to recommend being more affected than the intention to revisit. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to develop a theoretical model following a recent trend integrating the destination image and risk literatures. Results highlight the key role of perceived risk in creating destination image and provides evidence of the mediating role of image between risk and behavioral intention. The affective image component has a greater impact on behavioral intention than the cognitive one. The outcomes of this study point out the importance, for destination marketers and policymakers, of mitigating the effects of the risk derived from oil drilling. Emphasis is placed on the importance of information and promotion campaigns in which the safety of the destination is remarked.

The Social Economy entities of have been highlighted by the scientific literature for their potentiality to propitiate the generation of a social value in the territories that are located, which would allow the strengthening of cohesion, employment and economic growth, respecting ecological limits (Bono , 2012; Chaves and Monzon, 2012). From an institutional perspective, they are considered a key piece in the global action plan aimed at achieving sustainability (United Nations General Assembly, 2015: 12; Opinion 2009/C318/05 of the European Social and Economic Committee: 26), thus, urging to evaluate the contribution that, in its different dimensions, they make to the local environment (European Commission, 2011a, b; GECES, 2012; SEC, 2011).The fishermen's guilds, conceived as unions of fishermen who, gathered around an entity or organization, try to achieve specific objectives of the activity they carry out (Cervera, 2006), have received less attention in the field of Social Economy, despite its explicit recognition as a key piece in comprehensive sustainability (FAO, 2016: 138).This work aims to fill this relative deficiency. Its main objective is to make visible the integral contribution that these entities make to the local community, as a previous step to integrate the generation of social value for sustainability in the management of these regional organizations. The geographical context of the study is the Canarias, an outermost region of the European Union, where inshore and artisanal fishing have a long historical tradition (Galvan, 1982; Santamaria et al., 2014). Of the fishermen's guilds that remain active in this island complex, one of them has been taken as a case study, using the Social Accounting system as a metric of social value (Retolaza et al., 2016).The Social Accounting system is an information system that complements and expands the scope of traditional accounting in a double dimension, both in terms of the nature of the value considered and the interest groups contemplated. It is characterized by allowing to objectify in a single monetary measure the economic and social value attributable to management, the integrated social value or blended value (Emerson and Bonini, 2003), and to satisfy the information demands of its stakeholders (Freeman, 1984: 24).In this article, the five-stage methodological process established by Retolaza et al., (2016:4043) has been followed. In the first phase, according to action research methodology, the work team is formed and it determines the problem to be solved and establishes the project schedule. In a second stage, following the theory of the stakeholders, the organization's interest groups are identified and represented on a map. Third, according to the phenomenological perspective, the representatives of the different groups are interviewed to determine their interests and, after grouping them into the variables of perceived social value, they are oriented to indicators, obtaining the matrix of interests of the stakeholders.In the fourth stage, the instruments of fuzzy logic allow to identify the organization's outputs linked to the value variables, to select proxies, and to generate algorithms to quantify in monetary terms the two ecosystems of social value, the market and the specific. The proxies of the direct socio-economic value are standardized (Retolaza et al., 2016: 44-46) and those of the indirect one are obtained by carrying out an economic-financial analysis of the entity's portfolio of suppliers (Retolaza et al., 2015: 40). In the fifth and final stage of the methodological process, the non-market social value is consolidated with the social market value, complemented by feedback of the results to facilitate the improvement processes in the organization.To apply the described methodology, a team of five members was formed (three researchers from the University of the province, the senior employer and the administrative officer of the brotherhood), which identified up to six types of stakeholders. Interviews were conducted with six interlocutors, representatives of shipowners' providers (100% of the total of this group), providers (20% of the total), workers (50%), Canarias Oceanographic Institute (one researcher), and shipowners (10%). With the results obtained in these interviews, up to seven different value variables are obtained, including issues such as the service provided by the brotherhood, support for scientific research and the brand strength of the entity for its partners.Once the value variables were obtained, instruments of the fuzzy logic were used to express in monetary terms the social value of the Brotherhood. First, regarding the specific social value 117 or non-market value, the organization's outputs linked to the value variables are identified through an intersubjective reflection process, co-participated by the group of research team agents, agreeing upon decisions on transformation of variables.Subsequently, proxies, or external items that allow an approximation to the monetary value that the outputs could have, were selected, taking into account the similarity or consideration of the social and temporal context in which the outputs are generated. Since, in the polyhedral model of social value analysis, the choice of proxies is made applying the reasonable value (Retolaza and San Jose, 2018: 109), using as an approximation the market price of an identical or similar output, taking into account the specific nature of the output.The direct socio-economic value of the brotherhood amounts to (sic) 36,611.07, while its indirect socio-economic value amounts to (sic) 604.93, with impact rates of 21.9% in personnel costs and 25.4% of added value. The consolidation of these data to achieve Integrated Social Value yields a result of (sic) 103,133.32, which is notable coming from a negative operating result of (sic) 8,069.19. In the distribution of the External and Internal Integrated Social Value, disaggregated by typologies of social value, to the entity's interest groups, it is observed that the groups that receive the greatest social return are the Public Administration and the shipowners. Furthermore, the entity's contribution to the generation and distribution of value to local suppliers and research organizations is relevant.The shortage in number of entities in the sample is one of the major limitations of this study. Regarding the possibility of extrapolating the value variables that have been identified by adopting an external approach to other brotherhoods, it must be taken into account that the approach to social value from the ontological approach of stakeholder theory is distinguished by its differential nature. Each brotherhood is considered, therefore, as a differentiated unit, capable of having to respond to a peculiar and specific set of interests, which may, in addition, vary over time.Likewise, the choice of proxies poses certain limitations when extrapolating the case study to other brotherhoods in Spanish territory. In particular, although the specific financial items presented here could be taken as a reference, they would have to be referred to the geographic and temporal spaces in which the outputs are generated. In any case, and in coherence with the phenomenological approach, more cases of entities similar to the one in question would be required that, taken together, would also allow progress in standardization, both of proxies and values.The main contribution of this study is probably to have revealed certain aspects that, once corroborated after an analysis similar to an aggregate set of entities of the same nature, would allow public and private decision-making to be oriented towards increasing effectiveness of the Brotherhoods for sustainable performance. Specifically, it is worth highlighting three value variables associated with the entity's mission, implying a recognition in the 21st century of the contribution to society of an entity of medieval origin: the service provided to its members, the ecological knowledge of the fishermen, and the prestige for the organizations of the 21st century that they use their products. In any case, the proxies proposed for the monetization of the outputs, linked to such value variables, should take into account the spatio-temporal realities in which they were generated.This work follows the recent empirical research line started by authors like Bassi and Vincenti (2015); Etxezarreta et al. (2018); Monzon et al. (2013); and Retolaza et al. (2015). This research quantifies the socio-economic impact of Social Economy organizations with the purpose of increasing efficiency and effectiveness in their management, taking into account their peculiarities.

En el presente artículo analizamos cómo se ha abordado el estudio del poblamiento humano de Canarias, prestando especial atención a las aportaciones recientes y, por ende, al estado de conocimiento actual sobre este tema a partir básicamente de la historiografía, la arqueología, la epigrafía, la lingüística y la genética. Asimismo, reflejamos cómo los estudios sobre el poblamiento han estado condicionados por los contextos políticos, económicos, sociales y culturales que han influenciado los paradigmas científicos e ideológicos. A partir de esta premisa analizaremos cómo se ha enfocado el estudio del poblamiento en la etapa del Estado de las Autonomías y cómo ha incidido el marco político en la visión y difusión del pasado indígena, así como en el encubrimiento de la realidad amazigh canaria hasta principios del siglo XXI.

This paper presents the results of a novel study of Vino de Tea (pine heartwood wine) from the island of La Palma (Canarias, Spain). The aim is to investigate its differential characteristics and contribute to typifying it within the Denomination of Origin ‘Wines of La Palma’. The analysis is based on a mixed approach combining a qualitative ethnographic approach (22 interviews) and quantitative physic-chemical methods in a sample of 16 wines. The ethnographical study revealed the tradition and techniques of elaboration behind Vino de Tea. In turn, the physicchemical analysis revealed by chromatography a significant presence of α-terpineol due to elaboration in pine barrels or casks. These samples were compared with a Greek Retsina wine, revealing the differences between these two traditional wines. These data suggest that Vino de Tea is a unique product with distinctive characteristics and potential health benefits, owing to its significant content of α-terpineol resulting from its fermentation in Canary pine casks.

This paper focuses on an unusual Pre-Hispanic burial, 11-12th century cal AD, from Fuerteventura Island. The pattern of injuries of the skeletal remains, together with the grave's features suggest exceptional circumstances of death and funerary treatment differing from those commonly observed elsewhere among the indigenous population of the Canary Archipelago. The study first uses forensic anthropology techniques to characterise the individual's injuries before turning to archaeological and ethno-historical records of the indigenous populations to identify the potential scenarios explaining the fatal injuries. The nature of the peri-mortem lesions, especially those to the head, is consistent with an intention to kill. This case provides an opportunity to analyze the mechanisms of violence in a society with strong environmental limitations and conditions of isolation, as well as to deepen the concept of justice in ancient times.

A lo largo del tiempo, la devoción a las vírgenes ha quedado vinculada a la costumbre de los exvotos, siendo de una gran variedad, tanto en estética como en tipología. En Canarias, las devociones marianas suponen un espacio privilegiado desde donde vislumbrar este universo simbólico donde lo artístico, lo ritual y lo religioso unifican la expresión material. Una costumbre en aparente desaparición que ha introducido nuevos elementos en su manifestación. Estas novedades son capaces de dotarlos de una singular pluralidad morfológica que implica en muchos casos una relectura de las fórmulas ligadas al espacio de la sanación y religiosidad popular más actuales. La Virgen del Carmen, la Virgen del Pino, La Candelaria y otras forman parte de esta costumbre que presenta singularidades nacidas de su estrecha relación con el mundo Atlántico y con el espacio continental de África y América.

La oralidad es una fuente de conocimiento clave de las comunidades humanas. En el caso de La Gomera, se expresa especialmente en el campo de la poesía popular, con el romancero y la décima como sus mejores expresiones. En este trabajo, trataremos de descubrir las cualidades educativas que, desde la transversalidad, el aprendizaje significativo o competencial, existes en su uso didáctico, y de qué forma esto puede repercutir en la propia vitalidad y conservación del patrimonio oral. Orality is an important element in the personality of human societies. In La Gomera, this reality is especially relevant in popular poetry, especially two stranzas: romance and the tenth stanza. This work tries to discover what are the educational qualities of orality: transversality, meaningful or competencial learning. It also tries to point out how education can contribute to conserving oral heritage.

The tourist image has been the topic of studies from different perspectives and places. This occurs due to the necessity of destinations to build competently persuasive images, placed in different means of communication. The image induced by available videos on social networks has been a relatively unexplored subject. Seen in these terms, the purpose of this research focused on studying the promotional videos provided from 2010 to 2014 by the Andalusian tourism official channel, regarding the promotion of cultural property. 25 videos were analyzed - out of 400 which besides being chronological cut off they were also filtered by self production and insertion of cultural elements - with an eye on variables such as: segmentation flexibility, worked cultural elements, practical information and triggered psychological code, all of them inserted in normative statement prepared for collection. These analyzes were carried out by theoretical framework on image and cultural heritage and its relationship with tourism. Some outcomes may be indicated: the image is built without dissociation by the city; all videos have cultural elements, being the material ones more triggered; there is flexibility of the touristic segmentation when the videos are not exclusively dedicated to cultural tourism; and the key noticed codes were: fun, inclusion, diversity and curiosity. It can be concluded that Andalusia presents a consistent promotion with its material cultural heritage, but it failures in immaterial ones, and the campaigns have persuasive massages and images, considered successful by the commitment that they create.

The gender division in the labour market in rural areas has repercussions on rural tourism. Women participate to a lesser extent than men in the labour market and, when they do, they occupy a greater proportion of temporary or part-time jobs, oriented to the service sector. These characteristics are related to the discontinuity and flexibility of tourist demand, as well as the type of tasks required by the accommodation offer of rural tourism. Through a quantitative study of the owners of rural houses on La Palma (Canarias, Spain), it can be observed that women receive a significantly higher percentage of income from rural tourism than men. However, this revenue is not enough to ensure a full income that allows their economic autonomy through rural tourism. The results of this study support gender segregation in the rural labour market. The evidence obtained strengthens the fact that there is a significantly higher presence of women than men exercising rural tourism as their main occupation. Although rural tourism does not substantially alter the prevailing performance model, drawing from experiences acquired by women in the domestic sphere and without reporting a full income, this represents a certain level of progress in their degree of autonomy. These aspects should constitute the basis for public action that promotes the potential for rural tourism development with a higher degree of gender equity.

The aim of this article is to show the different contradictions, tensions, and latent conflicts related to ethnic sports, public policies, and promotion of sports tourism in the Canarias. This article, based on ethnography and qualitative information, shows the development of certain ethnic sports in a tourist context. A case study was carried out in the island of Fuerteventura, where tensions and latent conflicts exist despite public policies actually supporting these sports practices-underlining their identity and cultural basis. Such support is very frequently diffuse in terms of tourism policy, where attention to sport is mainly driven by active tourism. Likewise, those having a role in the tourism field assume different positions regarding the potential presence of these ethnic sports in it, a fact that makes the resulting tensions more evdient.

This article provides the results of the analysis of a sample of the digital contents or teaching materials for Primary Education existing in a website called Eco Escuela 2.0 promoted by the educational administration (Educational Counselling of the Canarias Government), characterized by the free access and use for the teachers. The main purpose is to perform a material analysis oriented towards the end of the Primary Education in different subjects. The methodology used in the study consisted in content analysis. To this end. an instrument-guide for the analysis of the sample has been prepared. The results of the investigation detect activities that aim to favor the resolution of problems, experimentation or simulation. Its design is acceptable, although qualitatively improvable: some are developed by teachers, thus they lack of the visual appeal of commercial materials. Most are closed and non-modifiable, created for specific contents and purposes, although they are adapted to different learning paces. In general, they do not provide final activities and some of them finish with the accomplishment of deliverable group tasks, elaboration of materials, discussion of ideas or task presentation. The cultural or functional diversity of gender is not present in these materials and although the access is good, optimization must be improved for all types of mobile device screens. En este artículo se ofrece los resultados del análisis de una muestra de los contenidos o materiales didácticos digitales para la Educación Primaria existentes en un portal web denominado Eco Escuela 2.0 impulsado por la administración educativa (Consejería de Educación del Gobierno de Canarias), caracterizado por el acceso y uso libre por el profesorado. El propósito principal es realizar un análisis de materiales dirigido al final de la etapa de educación primaria en diferentes materias. La metodología empleada del estudio consistió en el análisis de contenido. Con esta finalidad se ha elaborado un instrumento-guía para el análisis de la muestra. Los resultados de la investigación detectan actividades que pretenden favorecer la resolución de problemas, la experimentación o la simulación. Su diseño es aceptable aunque mejorable en calidad: algunos elaborados por docentes por lo que carecen del atractivo visual de otros materiales más comerciales. La mayoría son cerrados y no modificables, creados para unos contenidos y fines concretos aunque sí adaptados a diferentes ritmos de aprendizaje. En general, no ofrecen actividades finales y en varios, estos terminan con la realización de tareas grupales entregables, elaboración de materiales, discusión de ideas o la exposición del trabajo. La diversidad cultural o funcional de género no está presente en estos materiales y aunque el acceso a estos materiales es bueno, se debe mejorar la optimización para todo tipo de pantallas de dispositivos móviles. Apresenta os resultados de análise de uma amostra dos conteúdos e materiais didáticos digitais para a Escola Primária, disponibilizados em um portal web denominado Eco Escuela 2.0, desenvolvido pela administração educacional do Governo das Ilhas Canárias, caracterizado pelo acesso e uso livre por professores. O objetivo principal é realizar a análise de materiais destinados à etapa final da educação primária em diferentes disciplinas escolares. A metodologia utilizada foi a análise de conteúdo, utilizando-se um instrumento-guia para examinar a amostra. Os resultados mostraram a presença de atividades que pretendem favorecer a resolução de problemas, a experimentação ou a simulação. Os projetos visuais sugerem a necessidade de melhorias. Eles foram desenvolvidos pelos professores e carecem dos atrativos visuais encontrados em materiais editados comercialmente. A maioria dos materiais não permite modificações, foi criada para conteúdos e objetivos concretos, embora adaptados a diferentes ritmos de aprendizagem. Em geral, não apresentam atividades finais e muitos deles concluem com a realização de atividades em grupo a serem entregues, a elaboração de materiais, a discussão de ideias ou com a exposição do trabalho realizado. A diversidade cultural e de gênero não está presente nos materiais analisados; embora o acesso aos recursos seja bom, deve-se melhorar a sua otimização para todo tipo de tela de dispositivos móveis. 36 19 ESCI

El astroturismo también es denominado turismo de estrellas o astronómico. Este término define un tipo de turismo activo, dirigido al aprendizaje de la astronomía. Por ello suele atraer a científicos, fotógrafos o grupos de personas que disfrutan de la astronomía, combinando el ocio con la adquisición de conocimientos. Este tipo de turismo sostenible se ha desarrollado en la isla de La Palma a través de iniciativas como las de la Fundación Starlight, que surgió en el 2007 durante una conferencia con el objetivo de preservar la calidad de los cielos y la observación de las estrellas como patrimonio cultural. Por lo tanto, este trabajo es una revisión bibliográfica que estudia el astroturismo en la Palma, para analizar los medios con los que se cuenta y la influencia que tiene sobre la zona. Tras el análisis del marco teórico y la bibliografía encontrada se concluye que el astroturismo puede ser una actividad turística en sí misma con mucho potencial, y también como una actividad complementaria para otros tipos de turismo. Astrotourism is also called star or astronomical tourism. This term defines a type of active tourism, aimed at the learning of astronomy. For this reason it usually attracts scientists, photographers or groups of people who enjoy astronomy, combining leisure with the acquisition of knowledge. This type of sustainable tourism has been developed on the island of La Palma through initiatives such as the Starlight Foundation, which emerged in 2007 during a conference with the aim of preserving the quality of the skies and observing the stars as cultural heritage. Therefore, this work is a bibliographic review that studies astrotourism in La Palma, to analyze the means with which it is counted and the influence it has on the area. After the analysis of the theoretical framework and the bibliography found, it is concluded that astrotourism can be a tourist activity in itself with great potential, and also as a complementary activity for other types of tourism

La cuestión de la identidad canaria es un tema tan complejo como actual. Por su parte, los artistas canarios han intentado dar respuesta a este interrogante generando múltiples interpretaciones de la canariedad. El presente artículo pretende establecer un acercamiento a este asunto haciendo un recorrido por el arte canario desde el siglo pasado hasta el arte contemporáneo.

Human occupancy of beaches is an important cause of environmental and landscape transformations, some of which are identifiable through vegetation analysis. Commonly, arboreal vegetation has been socially perceived in a positive way, as it contributes to the creation of environments appreciated as beautiful and natural. This type of vegetation has been recreated in urban coastal areas worldwide, including those located in arid environments where it is not always common or endemic to these areas. The typology of plant species, human impacts on beach environments, and the social perception of vegetation contrast were analyzed to understand the landscape influence and human impact on beach environments from arid regions. The study was carried out on 12 beaches with different degrees of human occupation (4 urban, 4 semi-urban and 4 natural) in Gran Canaria island (Spain). The results indicate that the number of exotic and mderal (first to colonize human disturbed environments) species increases with human occupation of the beaches. A greater number of arboreal species were identified on urban beaches, while shrub and herbaceous species were more common on less occupied beaches (semi-urban and natural). However, when surveyed, the users of semi-urban and natural beaches, considered that arboreal vegetation compose a more attractive landscape than other with herbs or shrubs, even though tree species appear occasionally on these types of beaches. This inconsistency identifies a conflict of values between the development and conservation of beaches in arid environments. This study can be used to establish environmental sustainability strategies on beaches. Conservation and environmental information about ecosystem services related with indigenous plant species is and important issue for integrated management on beaches from arid regions, especially those that may be urbanized in the near future.

This article reflects on governance and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) as a competitive strategy. It shows that synergies for achieving sustainable tourism destinations require innovation, inter-business cooperation, and public-private cooperation. The empirical analysis focuses on the island of Fuerteventura, Canarias. The island is an outermost territory of the European Union, where the high number of tourists has an important socio-environmental impact. Fuerteventura has also been designated a Biosphere Reserve due to respect for its cultural, natural and scenic values and the manner in which commitment to renewable energy, responsible water management and responsible fishing have contributed to its sustainable development. This recognition has led to a coordinated decision-making process, which has resulted in the implementation of different plans to modernize this tourist destination. In fact, the island has been divided into three basic zones that differ in the conservation levels pursued and the activities allowed in each of them. In this context, this article aims to analyze the influence of innovation, private-public collaboration and private-private collaboration on tourist accommodation companies regarding their level of integration of CSR in an island designated as a Biosphere Reserve.

Desde 1943 hasta 1981 1a producción de Noticiarios y Documentales Cinematográficos (NO-DO) había modelado el imaginario de los espectadores. La propaganda del régimen franquista se sirvió del Noticiario para transmitir de forma pedagógica y persuasiva su ideario, a la vez que mostraba una imagen estereotipada de las diferentes regiones del país, en las que reinaban el bienestar, la concordia y el progreso. Analizamos en este estudio la imagen de Canarias creada por NO-DO, de la que muchos de sus aspectos parecen seguir teniendo vigencia hoy en día. From 1943 to 1981 the production of NO-DO (Newsreels and Cinematographic Documentaries) had modeled the imaginary of the spectators. The propaganda of the Franco regime used the Noticiario to transmit its ideology in a pedagogical and persuasive way, at the same time that it showed a stereotyped image of the different regions of the country, where welfare, concord and progress reigned. We analyze in this study the image created by NO-DO of the Canarias, of which many of its aspects seem to continue to be valid today.

Los conjuntos históricos de Canarias concentran una parte significativa del patrimonio isleño y algunos por su carácter emblemático son iconos de la identidad canaria, especialmente los rectores del territorio en los sistemas urbanos de cada isla. La valoración de estos núcleos y su conversión en bienes de interés cultural, categoría conjunto histórico, comenzó en 1973 con la declaración del barrio de Vegueta, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, y alcanzó su marca Unesco con la categoría de Patrimonio de la Humanidad a favor de La Laguna en 1999. Este proceso cuenta con tres marcos competenciales diferentes: Gobierno central, comunidad autónoma y cabildos insulares. Las declaraciones se ajustan a la legislación del momento y en paralelo se suman otros factores, donde se aprecian planteamientos diferentes entre provincias e islas. The historical sites of the Canarias concentrate a significant part of the island’s heritage and some of them, because of their emblematic carachter, are icons of the Canarian identity, especially those that play a large role in shaping the territorial structure of the urban systems of each island. The recognition of these historic centers and their conversion into «Bienes the interés cultural» (goods of cultural interest) within the category of «Conjunto histórico), began in 1973 with the declaration of the «Barrio de Vegueta» (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria), and reached its Unesco standing with the category of World Heritage in favor of La Laguna in 1999. This process has three different competence frameworks: central government, autonomous community government, and island councils. The declarations are adjusted to the legislation of the moment and in parallel other factors are added, if and when different approaches between provinces and islands are appreciated.

The Canarian Wrestling has long been the autochthonous sport par excellence in the Canary Islands. However, today is not receiving the promotion it deserves as a sign of Canarian identity, much less as part of our cultural heritage. It is true that the corresponding entities have been responsible for protecting and maintaining it, since it was declared a Cultural Interest Site (BIC) some time ago. But they have not achieved a methodology or educational practices that include Canarian wrestling in the Primary Education Classrooms in an autonomous way to promote it among the youngest. On the contrary, the Canarian Struggle has been "marginalized" in the educational context to the days before May 30, Canarias Day, or in a timely manner in the subject of Physical Education. From this socio-educational and cultural context in which the Canarias are submerged, the need arises to design an efficient didactic proposal that includes Canarian wrestling in the primary classrooms in an "autonomous" way. From this reality this project is born: Science through Canarian wrestling, a didactic proposal for the subject of Nature Sciences, which will deal with content related to the topic of energy. In this sense it is very important to highlight that the range of possibilities that The Canary Wrestling offers us is immense, and that although in this case we have opted for the subject of Sciences it could have been any other subject such as Mathematics, First Foreign Language, etc. La Lucha Canaria ha sido durante mucho tiempo el deporte autóctono por excelencia en Canarias. No obstante, a día de hoy no está recibiendo la promoción que merece ni como seña de identidad canaria, ni mucho menos como parte de nuestro patrimonio cultural. Es cierto que las entidades correspondientes se han encargado de protegerlo y mantenerlo, pues se declaró Bien de Interés Cultural (BIC) hace ya algún tiempo. Pero las mismas no han conseguido una metodología ni unas prácticas educativas que incluyan a La Lucha Canaria en las Aulas de Educación Primaria de manera autónoma para fomentarla entre los canarios más jóvenes. Todo lo contrario, la Lucha Canaria ha quedado “marginada” en el contexto educativo a los días previos al 30 de mayo, Día de Canarias, o de manera puntual en la asignatura de Educación Física. De este contexto socioeducativo y cultural en el que se encuentra sumergido Canarias, nace la necesidad de diseñar una propuesta didáctica eficiente que incluya a La Lucha Canaria en las aulas de primaria de manera “autónoma”. De esta realidad nace este proyecto: Ciencias a través de La Lucha Canaria, una propuesta didáctica para la asignatura de Ciencias de la Naturaleza, en la que se tratarán contenidos relativos al tema de la energía. En este sentido es muy importante resaltar que el abanico de posibilidades que nos oferta La Lucha Canaria es inmenso, y que a pesar de que en este caso hemos apostado por la asignatura de Ciencias podría haber sido cualquier otra asignatura como matemáticas, Primera Lengua extranjera, etc.

Owing to their characteristics and origins, palaeontological objects should indeed be considered within the scope of natural heritage, since they are natural items not arising from human action. However, in the Canarias, they are dependent on historical heritage legislation. The fossil record of the Canaries is exceptional and important, since it has been preserved in the context of active oceanic volcanic islands. The first fossils found in the archipelago are marine, belonging to the Jurassic period and they extend up to the Holocene. These fossil sites can be considered a non-renewable resource with a high risk of disappearance, which we should know how to conserve and protect. To this effect, the marine palaeontological sites of Anaga were assessed. Each of the sites were therefore rated in terms of scientific, sociocultural and socioeconomic value, as well as the damage risks, as part of the goal of documenting their exact present state. The heritage assessment applied 26 criteria, to maintain objectivity. Results show the high-risk level the palaeontological sites are under, as well as its general importance (they scored more than 1.9 out of 3 points). The fossil site of Tachero has the highest heritage value and stands out in most of the applied parameters. Results also contribute to the idea that palaeobiological conservation is useful to preserve current biodiversity. Aided by this assessment, the value of the palaeontological resources of the Canarias will help diversifying tourism and enhancing the sustainable economic growth of the archipelago. © 2019, The European Association for Conservation of the Geological Heritage.

ABSTRACT The objective of the research article is to reconstruct, under a theoretical - methodological perspective of social history, the Canarian - Venezuelan cultural development from the human, religious, sports, gastronomic and agricultural expression, from interdisciplinarity and interculturality, since the Canarian colony has been one of the most relevant and representative for its similarity of customs and culture; arriving until the conformation of families of several generations between canaries and Venezuelans. The research corresponds to a descriptive study and applies historical method and techniques from historical science, through the use of primary and secondary sources. Regarding the results, the Canarian emigration process of men, women and family groups is described, as well as the arrival, participation and incidence in society, with values, principles and contributions that were demonstrated in work, agriculture, sports, gastronomy and religiosity. It is concluded that the relationship between canaries and Venezuelans throughout history has been effective, fruitful and timely, generating benefits from the economic to the cultural, for being a colony that was linked to the common Venezuelan and influenced the national development.

The results obtained in a study carried out between the end of 2015 and the beginning of 2017 on the state of the heritage of the Canarias digitized and accessible through the Internet are presented, with a view to proposing a future regional digital library in the field of semantic web technologies. The 87 existing projects are analyzed. Most of them are led by public institutions, but with a clear disconnection between them. Many initiatives are being carried out, but this work highlights the shortcomings that exist. These lead to a clear lack of interoperability between the different initiatives, which prevents many of the projects from participating in major collective platforms such as Hispana or Europeana. It is observed that each administration walks, at a general level, in its own direction and with its own objectives and approaches, it seems that the digital dissemination of its heritage should be more a reflection of its own administrative structure than of the very idiosyncrasy of the heritage published on the network. Solutions are proposed to alleviate these deficiencies and to make a regional digital library of the Canarias adapted to other national and international uses a reality.

North African history and populations have exerted a pivotal influence on surrounding geographical regions, although scant genetic studies have addressed this issue. Our aim is to understand human historical migrations in the coastal surroundings of North Africa. We built a refined genome-wide dataset of North African populations to unearth the fine-scale genetic structure of the region, using haplotype information. The results suggest that the gene-flow from North Africa into the European Mediterranean coast (Tuscany and the Iberian Peninsula) arrived mainly from the Mediterranean coast of North Africa. In Tuscany, this North African admixture date estimate suggests the movement of peoples during the fall of the Roman Empire around the fourth century. In the Iberian Peninsula, the North African component probably reflects the impact of the Arab expansion since the seventh century and the subsequent expansion of the Christian Kingdoms. By contrast, the North African component in the Canarias has a source genetically related to present-day people from the Atlantic North African coast. We also find sub-Saharan gene-flow from the Senegambia region in the Canarias. Specifically, we detect a complex signal of admixture involving Atlantic, Senegambian and European sources intermixing around the fifteenth century, soon after the Castilian conquest. Our results highlight the differential genetic influence of North Africa into the surrounding coast and show that specific historical events have not only had a sociocultural impact but additionally modified the gene pool of the populations.

En este trabajo realizamos, inicialmente,una revisión críticade diversos enfoques acerca del patrimonio culturaly de la museología, a partir del caso de estudio del Ecomuseode El Tanque, enclavadoen la isla de Tenerife. A raíz de la experiencia de este caso, abordamos el proceso deimplementación del proyecto museístico, considerado en sí mismocomo una acción cultural en el seno de una política cultural determinada, que aspira a poner en valor los patrimonios culturales de las comunidades relacionadas,con el objetivo de contribuir al desarrollo local del municipio. Nuestro fin es valorar la lógica sociopolítica y socioeconómica del proyecto dado el contexto socioculturalde la población receptora del mismo. Tratando de responder y comprender cómo las identidades y los patrimonios locales, o determinados rasgos de los mismos, son revivificados uobscurecidos en una especie de juego o pugna entre agentes patrimoniales.A lo largo del Trabajo de Fin de Grado(TFG)contrapondremosdistintas corrientes de la Museología: Museología Tradicional, Nuevas Museologías y Museología Crítica;explorandola influencia de cada una de ellas en las praxis museísticas de los museos de carácter etnográfico en la isla de Tenerife. Consideramos que las nociones tradicionalistas que han predominado en la puesta en marcha de proyectos museísticos de la isla, siguen dominando las nuevas iniciativas, aunque tengan –pretendida o ciertamente–un carácter local y participativo, frente a lasposiciones abordadas por lasNuevas Museologías y la Museología Crítica. Asimismo, analizaremoseldiscurso museístico del Ecomuseode El Tanque, con el fin de entender si estese adecúa a la caracterización que desde las Nuevas Museologías se ofrece acerca de dicha categoría museística.Trataremos de deducir qué paradigmas del patrimonio cultural orientan sus praxisdentro del campo patrimonial, estableciendo una comparativa con otros museos de carácter etnográfico en la isla. Y pondremosel foco, especialmente, enaquellas prácticas que atañen a las cotas de participación social que asume la instituciónmuseística.

La formación universitaria de quienes serán en un futuro no muy lejano docentes y, por tanto, nuevos formadores demanda la experimentación y anticipación en escenarios pedagógicos cada vez más “verosímiles”. Metodológicamente la investigación que aquí relatamos reivindica en su base algunos de los principios de la prospectiva educativa, ocupada en elaborar y diseñar escenarios como forma de afrontar o “pensar” mejor el futuro. Sigue asimismo las premisas de la etnografía educativa de corte cualitativo. Promueve la praxis docente en distintos entornos de trabajo al simular el futuro desempeño de los inminentes docentes en un escenario educativo combinado o mixto (blended), con el soporte fundamental de las TIC. Edublog, prospectiva educativa y Enseñanza Superior: un estudio de caso en la formación del profesorado aborda una investigación sobre una experiencia didáctica de continuidad, con grupos de un Posgrado profesionalizador en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación (Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria). El objetivo de esta comunicación es destacar las fortalezas y oportunidades educativas del Edublog. Los resultados obtenidos tras la aplicación de diversos procedimientos empírico-analíticos de recogida de datos revelan cómo el trabajo con el Edublog mejora no solo la cohesión y motivación del grupo-aula sino el avance de los masterandos en su aprendizaje competencial. 176 169

Esta investigación plantea un nuevo modelo teórico para la educación artística en el que se integra el patrimonio inmaterial de las creaciones cerámicas y la diversidad cultural. Se estudia, por un lado, la variedad de patrimonio inmaterial, principalmente canario y su introducción en educación como fuente de conocimiento y por otro lado, la necesidad de tener en cuenta la multiculturalidad en educación artística. A partir de estos aspectos se establecen conexiones entre el patrimonio inmaterial de las técnicas y rituales de las creaciones cerámicas de dos culturas diferentes, la cultura canaria y la marroquí. Se propone un modelo teórico que se implementa a través de un estudio de caso que se pone en práctica en tres grupos reducidos de alumnado de la Escuela de Arte y Superior de Diseño Fernando Estévez, permitiendo, de esta forma, realizar un análisis del conocimiento que posee este sector de alumnado sobre la materia estudiada y validar la eficacia del modelo teórico. This research proposes a new theoretical model for Arts Education that integrates the intangible heritage of ceramic creations and cultural diversity. It studies, on the one hand, the variety of intangible heritage, mainly Canarian, and its introduction into education as a source of knowledge and, on the other hand, the need to take into account multiculturalism in art education. From these aspects, connections are established between the intangible heritage of the techniques and rituals of the ceramic creations of two different cultures, Canarian and Moroccan culture. A theoretical model is proposed that is implemented through a case study that is put into practice in three small groups of students of the School of Art and Superior Design Fernando Estévez, thus allowing an analysis of the knowledge held by this sector of students on the subject studied and validate the effectiveness of the theoretical model.

En 1925, el historiador portugués Fortunato de Almeida publicó, en su Historia de Portugal, tres documentos que testimoniaban las hazañas en las Islas Canarias de un cierto almirante Lansarote da Framqua (Lançarote da Franca), descubridor de dos Islas en el Atlántico, quien muriera años más tarde en lucha con los indígenas al intentar conquistarlas. En este artículo se tratará de demonstrar, también gracias a nuevos documentos que se publican por primera vez, que la existencia del almirante Lançarote da Franca es un falso histórico y que los documentos publicados por Almeida fueron probablemente concebidos a finales del siglo XIX.

El geoturismo urbano es una nueva forma de turismo que se fundamenta en el aprovechamiento turístico del patrimonio natural y cultural asociado a la gea en las ciudades y sus entornos. El objetivo de este trabajo es crear un itinerario de geoturismo urbano en Tegueste. La metodología empleada consistió en identificar, inventariar y caracterizar lugares que tuviesen interés para el geoturismo en el casco urbano y las proximidades Tegueste. Los datos se recogieron en una ficha de campo y se llevó a cabo la valoración del patrimonio geomorfológico para los lugares específicos. Se han seleccionado un total de 18 enclaves representativos del patrimonio natural (3), cultural (13) y mixto (2) del municipio. El itinerario diseñado tiene unos 9,3 km de recorrido, una duración de unas cinco horas, se puede realizar en cualquier época del año y no necesita de equipamiento especializado. El diseño de esta ruta de geoturismo urbano contribuirá a diversificar la oferta turística de la localidad que está principalmente polarizada en el turismo cultural y el senderismo. Urban geotourism is a new form of tourism that is based on the tourist use of the natural and cultural heritage associated with gea in cities and their environments. The objective of this work is to create an urban geotourism itinerary in Tegueste. The methodology used was to identify, inventory and characterize places that were of interest for geotourism in the urban area and in the proximities of Tegueste. The data was collected in a field file and the assessment of the geomorphological heritage for specific places was carried out. A total of 18 enclaves representing the natural heritage (3), cultural (13) and mixed (2) of the municipality have been selected. The designed itinerary has about 9,3 km of journey, a duration of about five hours, can be carried out at any time of the year and does not need specialized equipment. The design of this urban geotourism route will contribute to diversify the tourist offer of the locality that is mainly polarized in cultural tourism and hiking.

El Silbo Gomero es un bien declarado Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial de la Humanidad por la UNESCO desde 2009 y, por lo tanto, un bien cultural de gran interés turístico. El objetivo de este Trabajo de Fin de Grado es, entre otros, investigar si el Silbo Gomero es conocido por los turistas que visitan la isla de La Gomera, su divulgación a nivel insular y, principalmente, su promoción estableciendo un vínculo entre el Silbo y el turismo de la isla. Para alcanzar dichos objetivos, se ha utilizado una metodología basada en encuestas con una muestra aleatoria de 100 turistas que han visitado La Gomera. Después de analizar los datos obtenidos a través de gráficas mediante el método C de Pearson, se llega a una serie de conclusiones que dan lugar a la elaboración de una propuesta para una mejor promoción del Silbo en la propia isla colombina, con el fin de atraer a un mayor número de visitantes. Así pues, se propone una ruta de senderismo cuyo principal objetivo es promover el Silbo Gomero y, mediante la cual, los turistas pueden conocer en primera persona esta tradición cultural Patrimonio de la Humanidad The whistling language ‘’Silbo Gomero’’ is declared intangible cultural heritage of humanity by UNESCO since 2009 and, therefore, a cultural asset of grat tourist interest. The objetive of this Final Degree Project is among others, to investigate if the ‘’Silbo Gomero’’ is known by the tourists that visit the island of La Gomera, its dissemination at the island level and, mainly, its promotion establishing a link between the ‘’Silbo’’ and the tourism of the island. To achieve these objectives, a methodology based on surveys has been used with a random sample of 100 tourists who have visited the island. After analyzing the data obtained through graphs using Pearson's C method, we arrive at a series of conclusions that lead to the elaboration of a proposal for a better promotion of “Silbo” on the Colombian island itself, in order to attract a greater number of visitors. Therefore, a hiking route is proposed whose main objective is to promote the “Silbo Gomero” and, through it, tourists can learn in person this cultural heritage World Heritage.

Se presenta una breve síntesis del uso de las cuevas volcánicas en Tenerife, desde la etapa aborigen hasta la actualidad. Se hace especial mención al aprovechamiento de las mismas por los guanches como vivienda y lugar de enterramiento. El uso de las cuevas prosigue después de la conquista castellana como vivienda marginal, corral o lugar para almacenar enseres y productos. En Las Cañadas del Teide las cuevas se utilizaron como refugio y de ellas se explotaron diversos productos como el salitre o el hielo. Muchas cuevas por sus valores naturales o históricos poseen hoy un alto valor simbólico e identitario, así como científico

In the pre-Hispanic necropolis of Juan Primo, northwest Gran Canaria (Canarias, Spain) a grave was found containing a 20-25 year-old woman with a foetus in her abdominal region, whose age at death was estimated at 33-35 weeks of gestation. The purpose of this study is to discuss the possible cause of death of the woman and foetus. Skeletons of both individuals were well preserved, permitting a good record of the bones found in the burial, which is compatible with a pregnancy at preterm. The age of the foetus and the position of the left upper limb raise the possibility that their death was the result of a difficult birth (dystocia). However, a number of alternative disorders can be put forward to explain this death in the third trimester of pregnancy, such as eclampsia and abruption placentae. In this case, pertinent ethnohistorical and osteoarchaeological information about the ancient canaries allows us to assess some of the stressors that would increase their maternal mortality. The lack of similar evidence in archaeological contexts makes this an important finding, providing a likely case of obstetric problems and their impact on pre-industrial societies.

Las áreas rurales, con un grado de sensibilización y atractivo importante, se encuentran en riesgo. Esto se debe al desarrollo del fenómeno turístico y sus tendencias, siendo el espacio natural uno de los principales escenarios demandados en la actualidad. Será el pueblo de Femés, un valle agrícola localizado al sur de la isla de Lanzarote con un relevante patrimonio, el territorio que va a ser analizado para proponer una serie de acciones que contemplen el equilibrio entre la conservación del patrimonio tangible e intangible con la actividad turística. Con los resultados alcanzados a través de la investigación, se desea estimular el replanteamiento del plan de acción actual o la creación de un nuevo plan para este pueblo rural por parte de la entidad pública y en el que a su vez, pueda participar agentes privados. Rural areas, with a degree of awareness and important attraction, are at risk. This is due to the development of the tourist phenomenon and its tendencies, being the natural space one of the main scenarios demanded at present. It will be the town of Femés, an agricultural valley located south of the island of Lanzarote with a relevant heritage, the territory that will be analyzed to propose a series of actions that contemplate the balance between the conservation of tangible and intangible heritage with the tourism. With the results achieved through the research, we want to stimulate the rethinking of the current action plan or the creation of a new plan for this rural town by the public entity and in which private agents also participate.

El patrimonio industrial que atesora la isla canaria de Fuerteventura sobresale, principalmente, por destacadas manifestaciones vinculadas con la producción de gofio. El relevante número de molinos de gofio diseminados por toda la geografía son el reflejo patente del papel que protagonizó el cultivo del cereal en la economía insular, lo que le dio el merecido título de “granero de Canarias”. Los molinos que han llegado hasta nuestros días constituyen uno de los legados patrimoniales industriales más significativos del pasado económico de Fuerteventura. La desaparición progresiva de la sociedad tradicional agrícola, unido al desuso y a la fragilidad de los materiales empleados, los convierten en unas estructuras especialmente frágiles y vulnerables al paso del tiempo. Dirección General de Patrimonio Cultural del Gobierno de Canarias, consciente de la importancia de este rico patrimonio, ha acometido la catalogación y el estudio detallado de estos bienes, cuyas conclusiones serán expuestas en esta comunicación.

Programa de Doctorado en Turismo, Economía y Gestión En una sociedad cambiante, la gobernanza se reconoce como un mecanismo de poder en la gestión económica y social, conjugando el crecimiento económico con el desarrollo sostenible. Los museos han empezado a ejercer principios de gobernanza, pero aún necesitan adaptarse a las demandas de los agentes que los conforman. La búsqueda de relaciones público – privadas, son un aliciente en el diseño conjunto de un producto turístico cultural que diferencie a los destinos en un ámbito de elevada competencia. Esas relaciones pasan por tratar de establecer colaboraciones y formas de negociación en la toma de decisiones por parte de los diferentes stakeholders. Esta investigación analiza cinco casos de estudio (museos), a través de los cuatro modelos de gestión del patrimonio cultural: dependiente, autónomo, no lucrativo, y privado, todos en la isla de Gran Canaria (España), como uno de los principales destinos turísticos de España. Se ha utilizado una metodología mixta para determinar diferencias y en las relaciones de agentes en estas instituciones, destacándose en todos los casos la necesidad de mejorar las relaciones entre los diferentes actores. Los resultados determinan que los visitantes al museo y diversos actores cercanos, de distintos sectores, tienen capacidad para aportar líneas estratégicas de mejora en el producto ofrecido. Es por lo tanto necesario establecer la relación existente entre los usuarios y las acciones de gestión dirigidas a la participación, la interacción y la responsabilidad en estas instituciones. El fortalecimiento de esas relaciones tendría el propósito de buscar un beneficio común para la población local y para el turista.

Los estudios del médico grancanario Gregorio Chil y Naranjo han sido de vital importancia para la historia de Canarias, abarcando campos tan diversos como la medicina, la antropología, la política y, en general, el desarrollo sociocultural de estas islas. Estas páginas se centran en el análisis de la influencia que los postulados evolucionistas ocuparon en su pensamiento, el revulsivo que ello supuso en el marco socio-cultural y científico de las islas, y la aportación de sus estudios al marco internacional del evolucionismo desde una perspectiva local.

The Biobibliographies collect personal, professional and academic data from a person who, due to his professional career, has excelled in some of the areas of knowledge. If there is a relevant protagonist in the history of knowledge in the Canarias, it is the doctor Gregorio Chil y Naranjo, a figure of the 19th century distinguished by his contributions in fields as diverse as history, anthropology, medical and natural sciences, ... and by his projection international. Given its importance, these pages include a bibliographic review of the texts written by and about Dr. Chil, completing in which new data is provided, as is the case of his relationship with the Spanish Society of Natural History for eight years.

En este capítulo analizaremos las estrategias de representación y caracterización de las distintas figuras femeninas que aparecen en un corpus de novela rosa inglesa ambientada en una zona de habla y cultura hispana, las Islas Canarias (España). Nos proponemos también mostrar cómo en estas novelas las cuestiones de género, con su tradicional dicotomía masculino/femenino, se entrecruzan y complementan con el factor cultural, en este caso contraponiendo la cultura española (canaria) con la inglesa. Sin duda, como veremos aquí, este plano cultural, vinculado en gran medida al aspecto educativo, ejerce también su inevitable influencia en la configuración de los personajes, tanto masculinos como femeninos, marcando claramente su pertenencia a una u otra categoría etnográfica, la española o la británica.

Escribir para unos lectores tan escogidos y tan interesados siempre es motivo de satisfacción y más si entre estos lectores se encuentran personas con las cuales he tenido la suerte de compartir experiencia y doctrina, como son los alumnos de Peritia et Doctrina, que ha significado una experiencia gratificante, de la cual me siento más orgulloso de mis acciones como Rector entre los años 1998 y 2007, siendo “el padre y la madre” de Peritia et Doctrina, el primer año de mi elección. A ello se añade la invitación por parte de la anfitriona, Asociación Peritia et Doctrina, que se me ha hecho para participar en estas Jornadas donde han acudido alumnos de las distintas asociaciones universitarias de Mayores creadas en España, y en este Libro de Actas, que quedará para siempre como testimono de un gran y práctico encuentro. En honor a todos ustedes, y en calidad de Historiador, y como profesor en el Programa Peritia -desde que se creó hasta la actualidad- he elaborado esta ponencia para darles a conocer quiénes somos los canarios y de dónde venimos, y cuáles son nuestras señas más destacadas, que conforman nuestra identidad. 144 137

La agregación de Portugal a la Monarquía Hispánica en 1580 y la consolidación de la expansión ibérica en el Atlántico propició un periodo de esplendor para las relaciones circunatlánticas de los territorios ibéricos, en especial de las islas de la Macaronesia en su contexto oceánico. Se presenta en este libro una investigación que, apoyada en estudios de carácter teórico, socioeconómico e institucional, busca comprender la dinámica atlántica durante el periodo denominado de la Unión Ibérica a través de la presencia portuguesa en la isla canaria de Tenerife. Se ha enfocado este trabajo desde múltiples perspectivas (como la económica, social e institucional) y se han relacionado las particularidades de las islas con su entorno oceánico más cercano. Desde un punto de vista metodológico, estamos ante un proyecto trasnacional y transversal que busca definir la articulación del Atlántico a partir de uno de sus núcleos más activos: el elemento insular. Será la isla de Tenerife el objeto de análisis, y la nación portuguesa, en el contexto de la Unión Ibérica, el sujeto de estudio. 240 Q1

This research work addresses the formation of a society in frontier areas during the period of consolidation of Transatlantic relations. The Portuguese community established in the Canarias and their transboundary networks in the Ocean have been analysed from the study of notarial documentation and insular council in order to understand the process of formation of a complex and exogenous island identity within the limits of the Hispanic Monarchy, whose origin is found in a social contract between locals and foreigners. Este trabajo aborda la conformación de una sociedad en áreas de frontera durante el periodo de consolidación de las relaciones atlánticas. A partir del examen de la documentación notarial y concejil insular se ha analizado como objeto de estudio a los portugueses que se establecen en Canarias y sus redes transfronterizas en el Océano con el objetivo de comprender el proceso de formación de una compleja identidad insular de origen exógeno en los límites de la Monarquía Hispánica y cuyo germen, concluimos, se encuentra en un pacto social entre locales y foráneos 154 139 16 ESCI

This article is an extract from the final project in the conservation and restoration of cultural heritage higher degree course and contemplates the implementation of cultural projects on ethnographic heritage of an industrial nature. Moreover, it specifically addresses the case of the creation of a cultural route around the lime kilns which have been preserved on the island of Fuerteventura (Canarias). On the basis of this case study, we reflect on the possible common ground between the political and economic interests, instrinsic to our consumer society, and those of culture and heritage to create synergies between cultural and economic development.

For its realization, several theoretical and practical aspects provided by the bibliography related to heritage and interpretation have been considered. Special attention has been given to the entire process, from the emergence of a simple idea to the completion of the proposal. In short, the planning of an action that promotes the interpretation of local intangible heritage values will be carried out, in order to be enjoyed by the itinerary participants.

La revista El Museo Canario nace en 1880, gracias al esfuerzo de Gregorio Chil y Naranjo y otros socios fundadores de la sociedad científica del mismo nombre. Desde su fundación, la revista aspira a ser el órgano de difusión de los estudios históricos, antropológicos y arqueológicos que se realizan en El Museo Canario. Los referentes científicos de esta revista están en las revistas científicas extranjeras, sobre todo francesas, que divulgan los estudios realizados en las sociedades y academias de Antropología, Historia y Arqueología de aquellos países. Este trabajo estudia la evolución de la revista en sus más de 130 años de historia, los distintos avatares que ha sufrido para llegar hasta nuestros días y su importancia para la difusión de la investigación arqueológica en Canarias. The journal El Museo Canario born in 1880, thanks to the efforts of Gregorio Chil y Naranjo and other founding members of the Scientific Society of the same name. Since its founding, the journal aims to be the disseminator of historical studies, anthropological and archaeological made in the Museo Canario. The scientific references of this journal are in the other foreign scientific journals, especially from France, that report studies from the Societies and Academies of Anthropology, History and Archaeology of these countries. This paper analyses the evolution of this journal in its 130-year history, it different avatars that has suffered to get to today and its importance for the dissemination of archaeological research in the Canarias.
