Abstract

This paper presents the results on the study of commercial networks in the Strait of Gibraltar during the 14th century. In this geographical context, especial attention is given to the presence of Genoese merchants in the city of Algeciras during its conquest in 1344 and its destruction in 1378/79. This work is based on the approach of the social interaction with the environment manifested by the creation of a harbour network, centre of commercial activities.
