- Abstract
The article presents the project for the delineation and administrative protection of the megalithic necropolis of the Gor river valley in Granada (Spain). The project constitutes a milestone by transferring to the scope of heritage protection the territorial and landscape dimension inherent to megalithic phenomenon. The paper briefly reviews the history of megalithic protection in Andalusia and analyzes the landscape and archaeological records presents in the Gor river valley. It also argues the fundamental role played by territorial and landscape analysis in proposing an extensive delimitation for the so-called "Gor River Megalithic Landscape". Together with the theoretical criteria, the methodology reinforces the territorial approach through the systematic use of GIS to identify the areas of heritage value to be protected.
