Sumario:It is considered a comparative study of castles within the mountains of Leon and the Távora-Côa watershed from 10th to middle 11th Centuries. Two areas which  had in common their recognition to the authority regnante in Legione from the second decade of 10th Century. A political reality whose uniformity was supported by structuralist historiography, although it only can be appreciated if we consider texts emanated from central power in a literal way. Utilizing writing sources from the period combined with the deficient archaeological register, we try to alight on functions castles in these regions could have. At the same time, typology and identity of powers who were acting from all these centres are questioned.
