Resumen
En el presente trabajo abordaremos las maneras mediante las cuales las ciudades se abastecían de agua. Centrándonos principalmente en el periodo bajomedieval, aunque haremos un recorrido por los diferentes métodos utilizados en épocas anteriores a modo de introducción. Trataré desde la captación del agua, hasta su distribución en la ciudad, pasando por todos los problemas que genera el reparto y el control del agua en la ciudad, o los métodos de financiación de las obras, personas encargadas de realizarlas y los políticos que tomaban todas estas decisiones, procurando, dentro de lo posible centrarme en la cuenca del Duero, aunque hay que aclarar que ello no siempre ha sido posible por la falta de documentación.
In this final-year dissertation we address the ways in which cities were supplied water by focusing mainly in the late medieval period, though we will briefly review different methods used in earlier periods. The issues discussed here range from the uptake of water to its distribution and supply in the cities, through all the problems generated by its distribution and control in the cities. We will also discuss the methods of funding water engineering works, the people in charge of conducting them, including also the decisions made by policy makers. We will mainly focus on the Duero river as much as possible, although it should be pointed out that this has not been always possible due to the lack of documentation.
