Este artículo aborda la noción de frontera en las sociedades marítimas de la Baja Andalucía y Canarias en el tránsito del siglo XV al XVI, caracterizándola a partir de tres grandes líneas de relación. La primera gira en torno a su conformación espacial; la segunda en las relaciones económicas que se desarrollan en su seno; la tercera en la configuración de las sociedades que habitaron esos espacios, prestando a su vez atención a las culturas transfronterizas conformadas en esas sociedades. Todo ello con el objetivo de definir semejanzas y diferencias entre ambos contextos, y entre la frontera marítima y la terrestre.
This article deals with the notion of boundary in maritime societies along Atlantic Andalusia and the Canary Islands at the turn of the 16th century, which is defined by three main axes of relationship. The first one focuses on its spatial distribution; the second one, the economic relations developed within it; and the third one, in the shaping of their societies, taking into account cross-border cultures shaped within them. All of this aimed at defining similarities and differences between both contexts, and also between sea and land borders.
