Klappentext zu „Munyat ar-Rummaniya “
Felix Arnold, Alberto Canto García and Antonio Vallejo Triano, Munyat ar-Rummaniya. The gardensIslamic garden culture played a decisive role in the genesis of the garden of the European Renaissance. All the more surprising is how little research has so far been done on Islamic gardens of the Middle Ages. Our knowledge of the Islamic horticultural tradition is based almost exclusively on literary sources and historical illustrations. Only recently have archaeological projects been devoted to the study of Islamic gardens. The country estate ar-Rummaniya outside the city of Córdoba (Spain) offers the opportunity to explore a garden from the heyday of Islamic culture. Through the repeated deposition of debris from adjacent buildings, the original garden surface has remained undisturbed at the site over a considerably large area. From 2013 to 2014, the garden was the subject of a research project sponsored by the Gerda Henkel Foundation and carried out jointly by the German Archaeological Institute, the Conjunto Arqueológico de Madinat al-Zahra and the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. For the first time, insights into the design of a garden of the 10th century could be gained. The system of garden irrigation was clarified, from a large basin, which served as a water reservoir, to irrigation canals and drainages for the terrace walls. Botanical analyses were central to the investigation of the garden, including pollen analyses. Sediments in the irrigation channel in particular provide information about the richness of species that originally existed in the garden and its surroundings. The hypothesis of a monoculture - such as an olive plantation - can thus be clearly refuted. The combination of different analytical methods makes it possible to identify a number of plant species that had been cultivated in the garden, including olive, almond and pomegranate trees, vines, myrtle, lavender, as well as flowers and herbs such as thyme, lilies and marigolds. In addition, the

earliest evidence to date of white mulberry trees on the Iberian Peninsula was found, a prerequisite for the development of an indigenous silk production. The small finds made during the excavation, including a decorated thimble for leather work and a yellow glazed bowl from Egyptian production, convey an impression of the luxury of life on the estate. The repairs on another bowl indicate both the appreciation for high-quality ceramics and the slow decline at the turn of the 11th century, which made it difficult to replace such goods. In this volume, the results of the project are comprehensively presented and placed within a cultural-historical framework.
