Abstract:The introduction focuses on the history of the research and archaeological work done on the site, and chapter 1 summarizes what is known about the layout of the Secano from archival records. Using the case study of the Patio de Comares (Court of the Myrtles), we learn that maintaining the elaborate architecture and decoration of the Alhambra palaces was a constant process requiring a bustling craft industry. What the Royal Workshops of the Alhambra project contributes to the archaeological field is a concerted effort to shed light on urban life at the Alhambra, outside of the usual palace narrative.
