Abstract

Some areas in the South-East of the Iberian Peninsula lack surface sources of water. As a result of this, aquifers near the surface have been exploited by means of percolating galleries ("quanat-s"), also called "galleries with embrasures" and "galleries with skylights" in the North-East of the Region of Murcia. These have fulfilled the needs of agriculture, stockbreeding and the population in the area. Several galleries have been found in the municipality of Jumilla (Murcia): Montesinos, La Pedrera, Las Puntillas, La Alquería, Los Manaores, Fuente del Pino, Los Estanquicos, Los Álamos, Los Inques... All of them are local systems that exploit their own water resources in an arid and semi-arid environment.
