| Sumario: | The objective of this article is to reveal the practices of human consumption in the interior of Castile during a war and convulsive period as the War of Spanish Succession. In order to carry it out, we have worked on various local documents from the Archivo Municipal de Cuenca, Notary Public Documents filed in the Archivo Histórico Provincial de Cuenca and documentation from the Archivo Histórico Nacional. All this documentation has allowed a systematic download and comparison of information related to practices of human consumption, population supply, prices, shortages, etc. Regarding Notary Public Documentation, we have worked on wills and goods stocks to obtain information on human consumption practices of elites. We have been able to confirm that lack of supply of some products, especially wheat, was an important factor of instability and social unrest. In the same way and in parallel, local elites carried out human consumption practices well differentiated economically and symbolically from the rest of the population. |
