Resumen
Although ancient authorities mainly described Spain as a herdsmen's
country and often praised the number and quality of her livestock,
there are no reliable proofs of transhumance before the Visighotic
period. Nevertheless, indirect evidence suggests that herds were mov-
ing between seasonal grazing areas even during the time of the Roman
conquest. Later on, several legal documents are better explained invok-
ing the interest of cities and individuals in controlling alternative pas-
ture lands, and some migratory patterns seem to conform nicely with
traditional transhumance's areas and with the routes linking them.
