Description

This geometric plan of the term of Marata is a technical representation of the rural territory drawn up for fiscal, administrative or property delimitation purposes. It is part of the territorial rationalization process promoted during the 18th and 19th centuries, in which cartography became an essential tool for local governance. The document reflects the application of scientific knowledge to the administration of the territory and the desire to define clear and measurable limits. It is a key source for understanding the construction of the Catalan administrative space and its connection with the European values ​​of precision, order and planning.
