The Visigoth settlement in the Iberian Peninsula and its relationship with the archaeological record of the 5th-6th centuries AD continues to be one of the most controversial issues in Spanish archaeology. The controversy relates to politics as much as it relates to archaeological research with two points remaining particularly controversial: the alleged use of the Visigoth past by the Francoist intelligentsia as an ideological affirmation of the regime and the contribution of archaeologist Julio Martinez Santa-Olalla in supporting and enabling this re-interpretation of Visigothic archaeology. The purely archaeological aspect of the controversy relates to an archaeological interpretation, stemming from the ranks of the so-called New Archeology, of the Castilian necropoleis containing grave goods of Pontic-Danubian type. This interpretation places special emphasis on social and cultural phenomena above the ethnic criteria defended by the Vienna School. This volume approaches the ideological question that underlies these controversies, as well as their repercussions in the direction adopted by later archaeological investigations in relation to the history of Spain. The author attempts to deconstruct the work of Martinez Santa-Olalla and places it in the context of the scientific production of his time. At the same time, it relativizes the role played by the Visigoth period in the Francoist ideological construction. Once the discussion is framed in these terms, the author dedicates his study to a refutation of the cultural interpretation of the phenomenon of the Visigothic necropoleis of the Castilian plateau based on the archaeological data and by comparing this data with literary sources. The study also addresses two other historical problems that could be related to the Gothic settlement in the Castilian plateau: the creation of the bishopric of Segovia and the flourishing of the city of Toledo. | El asentamiento visigodo en la Peninsula Iberica y su relacion con el registro arqueologico de los siglos V-VI d.C. continua siendo en la actualidad una de las cuestiones mas controvertidas de la arqueologia espanola. Gran parte de esa controversia tiene que ver con aspectos que trascienden a la propia investigacion arqueologica y nos situan en el plano de la politica. Asi, a la hora de abordar el problema hay dos puntos que han resultado especialmente polemicos: la presunta utilizacion del pasado visigodo por parte de la intelectualidad franquista como afirmacion ideologica del regimen y la contribucion del arqueologo burgales Julio Martinez Santa-Olalla en la fijacion del esquema de arqueologia visigoda. Por otro lado, el aspecto puramente arqueologico de la controversia tiene que ver con la interpretacion que desde las filas de la denominada New Archaeology se viene realizando de las necropolis castellanas con ajuares de tipo pontico-danubiano. Dicha interpretacion hace especial hincapie en fenomenos sociales y culturales por encima de los criterios etnicos defendidos por la Escuela de Viena. El presente estudio aborda de forma lucida la cuestion ideologica que subyace detras de la polemica, asi como las repercusiones que ha tenido en la posterior direccion adoptada por la investigacion arqueologica en relacion con la propia historia de Espana. En este sentido, el autor realiza un ejercicio de deconstruccion de la figura de Martinez Santa-Olalla y lo situa en el contexto de la produccion cientifica de su epoca. Al mismo tiempo, relativiza el papel desempenado por el periodo visigodo en la construccion ideologica franquista. Una vez situada la discusion en estos terminos, el autor dedica su estudio a una refutacion de la interpretacion en clave cultural del fenomeno de las necropolis visigodas de la meseta castellana desde los propios datos arqueologicos y a partir del cotejo de estos datos con los testimonios que proporcionan las fuentes literarias. Ademas, el presente estudio aborda tambien otros dos problemas historicos que podr
