The western end of al-Andalus is characterized by a striking distance from the main power centers and by a certain archaism of material culture. Pottery reflects rather well the evolution of these relations of power and exchange with other regions of al-Andalus, as well as the levels of interconnectivity of the different territories with the commercial networks of the western Mediterranean. The pottery "green and brown" was, since the Caliphate (tenth century) a privileged marker for these relations, highlighting the symbolism of its expansion on the tenth century and the commercial networks showing its dispersal over the eleventh and twelfth centuries. This paper includes a synthesis of the findings of this type of pottery in the Garb al-Andalus, defining homogeneous groups of ornamental and technical point of view and outlining the geography of production and commerce.
