Research has been carried out by Dr. Joan Segui, Service for Ethnographic Research of the Museum of Valencia, on traditional herd
management strategies and penning sites since 1995 on the mountains range located at the north of the Alacant province, Mediterranean Spain. The project was designed on the need of recording oral information
from a generation of old shepherds who spent their lives across these mountain territories and who’s lifetime was simply running away making it a priority to collect their life experience as the last traditional
shepherds of these mediterranean territories.
