Abstract


A research is undertaken about the salt supply to the harbours of Corunna and Betanzos (NW of Spain) during the second half of the sixteenth century, in which the periods of scarcity (1574-75/1598-99) and their results are particularly stressed. A thorough analysis of everything connected with the management of the salt warehouses in both cities, through the documentation of the public notaries as well as the accountancy books of these warehouses, is equally included. From these records it has also been possible to establish the maritime salt trading routes between these two harbours and those of Portugal and Andalusia (South of Spain).
