PelancongEstas ovejas forman parte de la historia de España: las merindades
PelancongNo encuentro información que conecte las merindades con las ovejas, a menos que quieras decir que “merino” (la oveja) viene de una merindad en España…..?
PelancongSí, las ovejas merinas fueron una potente industria en España desde finales de la Edad Media hasta el S XVIII. La merina fue un monopolio español y su exportación se castigó incluso con la muerte. La trashumancia, el traslado de las ovejas en busca de pastos, estuvo protegida por una institución llamada la Mesta. Las ovejas recorrían España de norte a sur y de sur a norte a través de los caminos reales.
