This book, titled 'Trapping and other traditional hunting arts in the Iberian Peninsula', is the result of more than twelve years of exhaustive research by the author. With a rigorous ethnographic approach, it details more than 150 traditional hunting methods rooted in the Iberian Peninsula. The book is aimed at those interested in knowing the devices that our ancestors developed to satisfy their most basic need: food.
The author deeply analyzes the hunting structures used by our ancestors to defend themselves from the wolf, an animal that has always inspired deep fear. In its capture, the most colossal traps built by man were used, exclusive to the Iberian Peninsula, such as the callejos and other minor trap structures. All this is documented with photographs and historical documents that allow us to understand the socio-cultural importance of this animal in the lives of our ancestors.
