    Tiscamanita in der Inselmitte von Fuerteventura : Sunny Fuerte

    Was gibt es zu sehen und entdecken?

    Der recht ausgestorbene Ort Tiscamanita mit 478 (2018) Einwohnern, liegt auf einer kleinen Anhöhe von 250 m Seehöhe. Wird über die FV-20 aus Süden angereist, wird Tiscamanita über weite Ebenen erreicht, die allesamt als Ackerflächen genutzt wurden. Angebaut wurde Gerste, Mais, Hirse, Kichererbse und ähnliches, welches in der Molino von Tiscamanita gemahlen wurde. Das erklärt auch die Lage des Ortes, der sich um die Windmühle aufbaut. Dort auf der Anhöhe konnten die Flügel der Mühle den Wind besser einfangen. Die Mühle wurde nach kastilischen Plänen errichtet und ist die am ältesten erhaltene Molino auf Fuerteventura. Sie stammt aus dem 17. Jhd. Ob es wirklich die erste Windmühle war, ist nicht bekannt. Zuvor wurde zwar fast ausschliesslich mit grossen Ochsenmühlen gemahlen, es gibt aber auch Vermutungen, dass die ersten Windmühlen schon im 15. Jhd. auf Fuerteventura betrieben wurden. Logisch erscheint das beim stetig wehenden Passatwind. Auch die Technologie der kastilischen Molino war bereits seit Jahrhunderten, eben in Kastilien, im Einsatz. So zitiert Jannis C. Notebart in seiner Arbeit “Windmühlen: Der Stand der Forschung über das Vorkommen und den Ursprung. ” Chroniken von Juan II. von Kastilien, die untermauern, dass bereits um 1330 die ersten Windmühlen in Kastilien betrieben wurden. Ein Museum in Tiscamanita widmet sich dem Thema Getreidemühlen auf Fuerteventura.

    Am schönsten ist die Anreise nach Tiscamanita über die FV-20 aus dem Norden. Dann wird das interessante “Agua de Bueyes”, “Ochsenwasser”, passiert. Ein Ort unterhalb des Vulkanes Caldera de Gairía (461 m), der geologisch sehr interessant ist. Agua de Bueyes ist ein sogenanntes “hydrografisches Becken”, im Volksmund “ein Wasserloch”. Die Böden rund um Agua de Bueyes sind wahrscheinlich die fruchtbarsten der Sonneninsel. Die besonderen Gegebenheiten ermöglichen Landwirtschaft, die kaum anderen Ortes auf der Insel möglich ist. Einst durchzogen dort Obstgärten die Landschaft. Wasser war immer ausreichend vorhanden. Es musste nur an die Oberfläche gefördert werden. Daher ist der Ort auch mit den “Chicagos”, den alten Windrädern, übersät, die Anfang der 1900derter aus den USA auf die Insel gebracht wurden. Einige drehen sich noch quietschend im Wind, andere sind einfach umgefallen. Wer Agua de Bueyes durchwandert, findet sich in der Szenerie eines mexikanischen Westerns. Tolle Fotomotive und Kulissen in einer einsamen Gegend.

    Um den Caldera de Gairía (461 m), der als Hausberg nordöstlich vor Tiscamanita liegt, findet der Offroad oder Mountainbike Freak ein herrliches Revier. Wanderer sollte die Gegend um Agua de Bueyes und die Barrancos erforschen. Das in Sichtweite gelegene Aerodrom el Jarde lockt mit fantastischen Rundflügen in Ultralights und wer es tatsächlich spannend findet der Aloe Vera beim Wachsen zuzusehen, der kann sich auf der nahegelegenen “La Finca de Aloevera” mit Jeeps durch die Pflanzungen karren lassen und sich dabei die Märchen über die heilende Wirkung der angeblichen Wunderpflanze erzählen lassen.

    Geschichte – Kultur – Wirtschaft.

    Geschichtliche Schätze beherbergt Tiscamanita nicht. Auch die Ermita de San Marcos de Evangalista aus dem Jahre 1699, die nur zu den Messen geöffnet wird, hat im Inneren keinerlei bedeutende Dinge zu präsentieren. Sie ist ein schlichtes Gotteshaus. Nichts lenkt den Gläubigen ab und da sie auch keine imposante hochragende Erscheinung ist, fühlt sich der Gottesgläubige in ihr nicht klein und unbedeutend. So gesehen ist die Ermita gut gelungen.

    Trotzdem hat Tiscamanita etwas historisches und sehr Bedeutendes zu bieten, das ganz im Versteckten liegt, nicht zu besichtigen ist. Der Ort ist die Geburtsstädte einer Persönlichkeit, welche die Geschichte des kanarischen Archipels massgeblich mit beeinflusst hat. Von diesen Persönlichkeiten hat Fuerteventura einige. Im Verhältnis zu den paar Tausend Einwohnern, die es im letzten Jahrhundert hatte, sogar überproportional viele. Wohl auch daher, da Fuerteventura eine harte Insel war, eine erbarmungslose Schule auf ihr zu absolvieren war. Wer auf der Sonneinsel überleben wollte, der musste Disziplin, Härte, Ausdauer und arbeiten lernen, sowie die Einsicht, dass der Mensch ein soziales Wesen und alleine kaum überlebensfähig ist. Wer mit all dem nich klar kam, der ging unter. So brachte La Ampuyenta den weltberühmten Tropenmediziner Doctor Tomás Mesa y Mena hervor, selbst in der medizinischen Gesellschaft in New York gefeiert wurde, in Tetir erblickte Juan Rodríguez González das Licht der Welt, Initiator und Mitbegründer der ersten Bank des kanarischen Archipels und das unscheinbare Tiscamanita brachte Manuel Velázquez Cabrera (* 1863, Tuineje – † 1916, Madrid) hervor. Velázquez ist jener Mann, der entscheidend dafür mitkämpfte, dass jede kanarische Insel ihr Cabildo bekam, ihren Inselrat, der auch Abgeordnete nach Madrid entsenden kann. Weniger bekannt, Velázquez war auch ab 1904 Teilhaber und ab 1905 Alleineigentümer der Saline Salinas del Carmen, ehemals Salinas de la Hondurillas, im Ort Salinas del Carmen. Manuel Velázquez Cabrera gab der Saline den Namen “Carmen”, in Dankbarkeit an seine Gattin, die ihm nicht weniger als 8 Kinder schenkte! Einem seiner Söhne vererbte er die Saline, als er viel zu früh mit 53 Jahren an einer Lungenentzündung kurz vor Weihnachten 1916 in einem Hotel in Madrid verstarb.

    El lucha de Manuel Velázquez Cabrera.

    Bis 1873 war Fuerteventura ein Lehn, was recht eigen klingen mag. Verwaltungstechnisch und rechtmässig wurde dort noch im Mittelalter gelebt. Erst als am 11. Februar 1873 die erste Verfassung Spaniens in Cádiz proklamiert wurde, änderte sich alles. Die Verfassung war so modern und richtungsweisend, dass sie schon nach 23 Monaten am 29. Dezember 1874, unter kräftigem zu Tun der Krone, Kirche und Grossgrundbesitzer, wieder ausser Kraft gesetzt wurde. Die Verfassung war kein literarisches Werk unter der Fiktion “Freiheit, Gleichheit, Brüderlichkeit”, sondern schaffte handfeste Tatsachen und stellte sogar Fuerteventura, eine ferne Insel, auf den Kopf, regelte auch dort alles neu. Ab diesem Zeitpunkt war Fuerteventura kein Lehn mehr, wurde Bestandteil der Provinz Las Palmas und selbst die Gemeindestruktur wurde neu, mit den noch heute existenten sechs Gemeinden, geschaffen. 1873 ist vielleicht das bedeutenste Jahr für das kanarische Archipel nach der Conquista. Ab nun sollte in wesentlichen Teile das Archipel selber über sich bestimmen und nicht mehr unter dem Diktat des fernen kastilischen Madrid stehen. Was wusste man denn in Madrid, wie es auf den Kanaren gerade aussah oder vor allem auf Fuerteventura? Fuerteventura hatte selbst in den 1940igern noch nicht einmal ein Telegraphenkabel. Passte das Wetter, legte einmal wöchentlich das Postschiff an. Das war die einzige regelmässige Verbindung zum Rest der Welt.

    So hing die Idee im Raum, eigene Inselräte zu schaffen, die Cabildos, die Abgeordnete nach Madrid entsenden dürften, um die Interessen des Archipels und der Insel, auf der sie gewählt waren, zu vertreten. Manuel Velázquez Cabrera, geboren in Tiscamanita, war glühender Verfechter der Idee und er hatte wie kein anderer im Leben kennen gelernt was es heisst, für etwas kämpfen zu müssen. Mit drei Jahren starb seine Mutter, wenig später musste sein Vater mangels Möglichkeiten in Tiscamanita Geld zu verdienen nach Uruguay auswandern. Sein Vater starb dort nach wenigen Jahren in Montevideo. Seinen Sohn sah er nie wieder. Er liess Manuel nicht einfach zurück, sondern gab ihn zur Betreuung und stellte sicher, dass Velázquez die Schule in Tuineje besuchen konnte. Bei einem Anteil von gut 90% Analphabeten in der Bevölkerung von Fuerteventura, war ein Schulbesuch bereits enormer Luxus. Velázquez ging auch tatsächlich in Tuineje zur Schule, studierte danach in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria und an der renommierten und ehrwürdigen Augustiner Universität in San Cristóbal de La Laguna auf Teneriffa (Gründung 1701 zum Vergleich Göttingen 1734) und beendete seine Studien der Rechtswissenschaften schliesslich in Madrid. In der Folge arbeitete er als Anwalt. Manuel Velázquez Cabrera kam aus dem Elend und legte dennoch eine herausragender Karriere hin. Zweifellos muss Velázquez mit Fleiss, Energie und der nötigen Intelligenz ausgestattet gewesen sein.

    Es war dem Anwalt aus Madrid, Manuel Velázquez Cabrera, nicht zu minder, für die Idee der Inselräte in den Kampf zu ziehen. Er machte sich aus Madrid nach Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Gomera und El Hierro auf und sammelte höchst persönlich 3. 388 Unterschriften für das Vorhaben. Für die damalige Zeit höchst unüblich, denn die Tätigkeit lag weit unter der Würde seines gesellschaftlichen Ranges. Velázquez war eben ein Macher. In Zeiten von Velázquez gab es noch keine online Petitionen für Smartphone Fantasten, die glauben von der gemütlichen Couch aus die Welt zu ändern.

    Mit seinen Unterschriften trat Velázquez in Madrid, zusammen mit seinen Mitstreitern der anderen Insel, eine Gruppe einflussreicher und gebildeter Persönlichkeiten, an, Spanien zu verändern. Die glühenden Verfechter der kanarischen Autonomie, machten im zentralistischen Spanien etwas wahr, was für undenkbar gehalten wurde: Am 17. März 1913 konstituierte sich das erste Cabildo, der erste Inselrat der Kanaren, in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Ein Traum wurde war und wieder einmal zeigte sich Las Palmas de Gran Canaria als Brutstätte der Moderne. War es einst mit der Freimaurerloge im Gabinete Literario in Las Palmas die Wiege der spanischen Aufklärung, fand nun unweit dieses die konstituierende Sitzung des ersten Cabildos der Kanaren statt. Der Kampf des Manuel Velázquez Cabrera, “El lucha de Manuel Velázquez Cabrera”, war gewonnen. Nur drei Jahre nach diesem historischen Ereignis, starb Velázquez im Alter von 53 Jahren viel zu früh. Eine Lungenentzündung beendet kurz vor Weihnachten 1906 in einem Hotel in Madrid sein Leben.

    In Tiscamita würdigt der Ort die Persönlichkeit Manuel Velázquez Cabrera mit einem Denkmal unter einem Dach lauschiger Bäume. Die Cabildos bedeuteten für jede der kanarischen Insel die lang ersehnte Selbstverwaltung und Mitsprache in Spanien. Eine Strasse im Ort Tiscamanita wurde ebenfalls nach Velázquez benannt. Die Calle Manuel Velázquez Cabrera zweigt gegenüber vom Mühlenmuseum von der FV-20 nach Südosten ab. Das Eckhaus dort, in dem heute eine kleine Bäckerei arbeitet, ist das Geburtshaus von Manuel Velázquez Cabrera, das mit einer Gedenktafel versehen war. Nachdem die Fassade 2018 neu geweisst wurde, war plötzlich die Gedenktafel verschwunden. Es muss sich um aussergewöhlich ignorante Personen gehandelt haben, welche die Tafel entfernten.

    Besser meint es die Inselhauptstadt Puerto del Rosario mit Manuel Velázquez Cabrera. Spät aber doch erinnerte sich der Inselrat von Fuerteventura an Manuel Velázquez Cabrera und liess eine “escultura” von ihm schaffen, die am 8. November 2001 vor dem Gebäude des Cabildos enthüllt wurde. Die Bronze Statue stammt vom Künstler Emiliano G. Hernández, der auch die beiden monumentalen Bronzestatuen am Morro Velosa geschaffen hat. Sie zeigen die letzten beiden Stammesführer der Majoreros Guise und Ayose, oder besser so, wie sich das der Künstler vorgestellt hat. Jeder, der Puerto del Rosario besichtigt, kommt an der Bronzeskulptur von Velázquez Cabrera vorbei. Sie steht in der Calle de Primero de Mayo, zwischen dem Gebäude des Cabildos und der Iglesia Nuestra Señora del Rosario und vor dem Miguel Unamuno Museum. Hier schliesst sich der Kreis für den Spanien Interessierten. Miguel de Unamuno y Jugo jener Mann, der am 14. April 1931 in Salamanca dazu auserkoren wurde, die 2. Republik zu proklamieren. Jener Miguel de Unamuno, den General Primo de Rivera nach Fuerteventura verbannt hatte. Unamuno und Velázquez Brüder im Geiste eines republikanischen Spaniens mit starken autonomen Provinzen. Für Miguel de Unamuno wurde am Montaña Quemada, unweit von Tindaya und dem Montaña Tindaya, ein Denkmal errichtet.

    Für wen lohnt der Besuch?

    Tiscamanita ist touristisch sehr unergiebig. Sightseer, die nicht vor haben das Mühlenmuseum zu besuchen, werden nichts finden, das lohnt besucht zu werden. Attraktiver ist das landschaftliche Umfeld von Tiscamanita. In Agua de Bueyes können einsame Wanderungen in bizarrer Landschaft unternommen werden. Quietschende oder umgefallene historische Windräder, “Chicagos”, zwischen Palmen und verfallenen Obstgärten werden entdeckt. Perfekte Szenerie für einen mexikanischen Western.

    Der Vulkan Caldera de Gairía hält schöne und leichte Offroad Touren bereit, die sich auch ganz erstklassig mit dem Mountainbike erkunden lassen. Einzigartige Inselrundflüge, die ganz neue Blicke auf Fuerteventura eröffnen, starten vom nahegelegenen Aerodrom el Jarde. Wer Erlebnis sucht, nicht besonders ängstlich ist und noch etwas Luft in der Urlaubskasse hat, der sollte sich das Erlebnis gönnen.

    Caldera de Gairía – eindrucksvoll schön.

    Der Caldera de Gairía (461 m) ist ein Vulkankessel nahe Tiscamanita. Die Schönheit seiner Form beeindruckt und Wanderer, die den Kraterrand besteigen und sich dann auch noch die Mühe machen in ihn abzusteigen, werden die Reste einer kleinen Ureinwohner Siedlung finden. Besonders schön ist der Caldera de Gairía in der Regenzeit. Dann wachsen an seinen Flanken die buschigen “Retamar Codesar” und versehen den gesamten Vulkan mit grünen Tupfen.

    Mit einem Geländewagen kann der Vulkan auf einer Piste umrundet werden. Für Mountainbiker oder Trailrunner ist die Runde eine hervorragende Trainingsstrecke und kann nach Lust und Laune, z.B. hinüber nach Vega de Río Palmas und weiter über die Palmenoase Madre del Agua nach Ajuy, ausgebaut werden. Unterwegs wird immer wieder auf freilaufende Kamele gestossen. Tragen sie keine Touristen durch die Gegend, treten sie auch in Hollywood Blockbustern wie “Exodus” von Ridley Scott als Komparsen auf.

    Insider Tipp

    Mit dem Ultralight im Tiefflug über Fuerteventura – das Flugfeld Aerodromo el Jarde.

    Unweit von Tiscamanita liegt das Aerodromo el Jarde, ein privates Flugfeld des Aeroclubs Fuerteventura, von dem aus in Ultralight Maschinen zu Inselrundflügen gestartet werden kann. Die Maschinen fliegen langsam und tief, was die Ausblicke besonders faszinierend macht. Besonders eindrucksvoll ist das Überfliegen von Vulkankratern oder der türkisfarbenen Lagunen. Es muss in Tiscamanita nicht immer nur die gegenüber dem Flugfeld liegende Aloe Vera Finca besucht werden. Reisende, die einzigartige Urlaubsbilder nach Hause bringen wollen, sollten in die Luft gehen.

    Los Ranchos de Tiscamanita y Tetir reviven la costumbre ancestral de cantar por las casas

    Navidad con panderos, espadas, timples y farolillos

    Foto: Carlos de Saá.

    En la isla de Fuerteventura su tradición navideña va ligada a los ranchos, como en las tres islas de la provincia de Las Palmas, y su actividad es muy similar a la de los ranchos de ánimas de Gran Canaria y Lanzarote. En la isla majorera existían ranchos prácticamente en todos los municipios, pero en los años cincuenta del pasado siglo desaparecieron la mayoría.

    Actualmente sólo tienen actividad el de Tetir, que se rescató en 1987, y el de Tiscamanita, este último tras sufrir un letargo de 10 años, entre 1987 y 1997. Curiosamente el rancho de Tiscamanita es mixto y tiene ligada su actividad a la festividad de la Inmaculada Concepción, de ahí que se conozca también como “Rancho de la Purísima”. El 7 de diciembre se repitió la salida de la cofradía de Tiscamanita por el Lugar de Abajo con los vecinos portando los farolillos. Al día siguiente, misa y procesión en honor a la Inmaculada Concepción, patrona de la localidad.

    La incorporación de jóvenes al Rancho de Tiscamanita aporta ilusión para continuar con el viejo ritual. La juventud se une con el deseo de investigar la historia de su pueblo, aprender y que esta formación tenga una larga vida. En la actualidad son unos 20 componentes y han confeccionado una vestimenta propia para la salida. Uno fiel desde su aparición es el mayordomo Ramón Rodríguez. ¿En esta casa se canta o se reza? Esta pregunta la formulará varias veces el mayordomo, antes de entrar a las viviendas de la zona escogida por la citada cofradía para realizar su tradicional salida musical por el pueblo. Recorren las calles, San Antonio, San Marcos, La Plaza, La Inmaculada, Manuel Velázquez y Justo Évora. El próximo año será por el Lugar de Arriba.

    La incorporación de jóvenes al Rancho de Tiscamanita aporta ilusión para continuar con el viejo ritual. La juventud se une con el deseo de investigar la historia de su pueblo

    Los componentes tocan guitarras, timples, laúdes, panderos y espadas, manteniendo intacto el ritual de antaño. Los músicos y acompañantes portarán los farolillos y sonarán las canciones que han sido transmitidas de generación en generación, aunque algunas se han retocado. Desde la Deshecha, que procede de una palabra castellana antigua que significa abrir , con la que este Rancho abre siempre sus actuaciones; la Copla, que incluye una alusión a los difuntos, con letras antiquísimas; el Corrido, que canta la aparición de la Virgen de la Peña hasta algún villancico tradicional, seguido de varias canciones a San Marcos, patrón de la localidad de Tiscamanita y a la Inmaculada Concepción.

    “Cada dos años celebramos el Encuentro de Ranchos en la iglesia y la actuación del día de la función religiosa, día de nuestra patrona. Aunque la salida nocturna por las casas es uno de los momentos más emotivos”, recuerda uno de los miembros más veteranos, Felipe Bermúdez. Antiguamente se realizaba para pedir dinero para la fiesta patronal pero en la actualidad es una visita festiva que representa una tradición popular muy arraigada que se remonta al siglo XV y XVI. Luego, el Rancho se recogerá y volverá en San Marcos.

    Tetir felicita la Navidad

    El Rancho de Tetir está más vinculado a la Navidad y reaparece al finalizar la Fiesta de San Andrés. La Agrupación Folclórica de Tetir se transforma en el Rancho de Pascua de Tetir con el timplista majorero, Domingo Rodríguez El Colorao, quien investigó y rescató la cofradía en 1987. “Desaparecieron cuando la iglesia los prohibió al considerarlos un elemento festivo y se han rescatado a lo largo del siglo XX, fueron mayordomos mi abuelo Benigno Rodríguez y hasta mi bisabuelo Antoñito. Ahora este título de mayordomo es de ‘Tinín’ el de la Vega y la cofradía reúne a unos 25 componentes. “En la actualidad ha desaparecido el repertorio musical antiguo, ni siquiera el viejo Navarro que venía invitado a participar con el Rancho recordaba las letras antiguas porque era muy pequeño cuando salía el grupo” reseña Domingo El Colorao. Ahora se canta algún tema antiguo pero el resto son villancicos navideños típicos de Fuerteventura y Canarias.

    Este año su primera actuación musical tendrá lugar el próximo 11 de diciembre en el Mercadillo de las tradiciones de Tetir. Juambi Cabrera destaca la participación de niños, familias, junto a vecinos del pueblo y pagos cercanos que se implican y colaboran en la conservación del Rancho de Tetir. Según la historia,  los instrumentos que se utilizaban eran cuatro o cinco panderetas, cuatro espadas, dos triángulos, seis sonajas, un timple, dos requintos y tres guitarras. Aunque en la actualidad se suman algunos más.

    En Tetir se canta para felicitar las pascuas. De este modo la Navidad se vive entre los vecinos del campo de forma más humana, solidaria y con una mayor cercanía recordando el valor de compartir y recordar a seres queridos. Las familias reciben al Rancho con un pizco de vino o ron y con productos de siempre como el turrón de gofio, uvas, castañas asadas, rosquetes o queso.

    “Cada año inauguramos el Belén de Puerto del Rosario y cuando podemos participamos en el Encuentro Insular de Villancicos de Antigua o de los pueblos como La Oliva o Tuineje” recuerdan. El 24 de diciembre la salida es obligada para esta agrupación que antes visitaba a los vecinos después de la misa del gallo aunque en la actualidad se adelanta.

    Los Ranchos en Canarias forman parte del patrimonio cultural, religioso y etnográfico y las 12 formaciones que permanecen en activo recibieron la Medalla de Oro del Premio Canarias a la Cultura popular del año 2006. Un premio que ha estrechado lazos entre los Ranchos de Pascua de Canarias y se celebran encuentros e intercambios entre todos ellos. Así se escribe la historia navideña de Canarias más ligada a cantares y rituales ancestrales que a regalos y luces.

Bereberes – Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre

Los bereberes[10]​ o amaziges[11][12][13][14][15]​ (en lengua amazig: «amazigh» en singular (ⵎⵣⵗ en tifinag / ⴰⵎⴰⵣⵉⵖ en neotifinag), «imazighen» en plural (ⵎⵣⵗⵏ / ⵉⵎⴰⵣⵉⵖⴻⵏ) son las personas pertenecientes a un conjunto de etnias autóctonas de África del Norte, denominado Tamazgha. A menudo se prefiere utilizar la denominación amazig, pues bereber viene de la adaptación al árabe del vocablo griego βάρβαρος, que quiere decir bárbaro.[16]

Se distribuyen desde la costa atlántica del oeste de África, en Marruecos, hasta la mediterránea, en el oasis de Siwa, en Egipto, como extremos occidental y oriental, respectivamente, y desde la costa del mar Mediterráneo, al norte, hasta el Sahel, como extremos norte y sur.

Las tribus más conocidas son las de los rifeños (región del Rif), en Marruecos, y los cabilios (región de Cabilia), en Argelia.

Los aborígenes canarios, más conocidos como guanches, también formaban parte de este grupo étnico. Los actuales pobladores canarios tienen parte genética heredada de estos pobladores, actualmente extintos étnicamente.[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]

El conjunto de las lenguas bereberes, lenguas amaziges o la lengua «tamazight» (femenino de «amazigh») es una rama de las lenguas afroasiáticas. Se estima que en el norte de África existen entre 30 y 60 millones de bereberófonos, concentrándose especialmente en Marruecos y en Argelia, y unos cuatro millones en los países de Europa. Los bereberes son característicamente caucásicos,[25]​ el Haplogrupo E ADN-Y es el que más abunda en ellos. Aunque el color de la piel es claro, se cree que en realidad es una etnia mixta de caucásicos como los rifeños o cabilios y en poca frecuencia pueblos del África subsahariana, como por ejemplo los Tuareg, que son un grupo bereber mixto.

«Bereber» procede de la adaptación árabe («barbr») del término griego βάρβαρος (bárbaros), aunque la autodenominación que usan muchos bereberes es «imazighen» (en singular «amazigh») y términos relacionados, que significa ‘hombres libres’. [28][29]​ Esta denominación es común en Marruecos y en Argelia, y desde mediados del siglo XX se tiende a emplear el término amazig, la apelación original, en vez de bereber, un término importado, para reagrupar a todas las etnias bereberes (cabilios, chleuh, rifeños,[30]​ etc.).[16]​ En la Antigüedad, los griegos conocían a los bereberes como libios,[31]​ los egipcios los nombraban mashauash, del nombre de una tribu bereber cercana a sus tierras, y los romanos los llamaban numidios o mauritanos. Los europeos medievales los incluyeron en los moros o mauros, nombre que aplicaban a todos los musulmanes del África del Norte.

Edad Antigua[editar]

Se desconoce cuál es su origen étnico, aunque los yacimientos arqueológicos hallados en el Sáhara, como las pinturas rupestres de Tassili n’Ajjer, datan la presencia del ser humano en esta parte de África desde por lo menos 6000 años a. C.,[32]​lo que abona la hipótesis de una etnogénesis local. [33]

Mapa de las áreas de extensión de las culturas norteafricanas en el Neolítico hacia 6000 a. C.

La cultura bereber es de tradición esencialmente oral,[34]​ por lo que su historia se basa en los relatos de historiadores griegos y romanos, así como algunas inscripciones del Antiguo Egipto. Se sabe que la dinastía XXII de Egipto, que gobernó alrededor del año 935 a. C., estaba formada por miembros de una tribu libia (los llamados mashauash). Dado que Sheshonq I es el fundador de dicha dinastía, el actual calendario amazig escogió su advenimiento como comienzo de su era.[35]

Durante la época prerromana se establecieron varios estados independientes antes de que el rey Masinisa fundara Numidia y unificara la región.

Cabe destacar la influencia ejercida por otras civilizaciones en los pueblos amaziges. En la mitología amazig hay, por ejemplo, similitud entre las deidades fenicias como Baal o Astarté, y las deidades egipcias Amón, Isis, etc.

Mapa de Numidia h. 220 a. C., que muestra los reinos de Sifax y Gaia (padre de Masinissa).

Tumba de Masinisa en El-Khroub, Argelia, 148 a. C.

Los fenicios, grandes navegantes, establecieron enclaves comerciales en la región que llegaron a ser importantes ciudades: Lixus (Larache), Tingis (Tánger), Utica, Thapsos, Leptis y Cartago, creadora de un gran imperio comercial y militar en el Mediterráneo Occidental. En dichas ciudades la población nativa, bereber, tuvo gran importancia.

Durante la primera parte de la segunda guerra púnica, los masilios orientales, bajo su rey Gaia, se aliaron con Cartago, mientras que los masesilos del oeste bajo el rey Sifax se aliaron con Roma. Sin embargo, en el año 206 a. C., el nuevo rey de la región oriental de los masilios, Masinisa, se alió con Roma, y los masesilos de Sifax cambiaron su lealtad hacia el lado cartaginés. Al final de la guerra, los romanos victoriosos cedieron toda la región a Masinisa. En el momento de su muerte en 148 a. C., el territorio se extendía desde Mauritania hasta la frontera con el territorio cartaginés, y también al sureste, hasta la Cirenaica, de modo que Numidia rodeaba en su totalidad a Cartago (Apiano, Púnica, 106), excepto hacia el mar.

Época romana[editar]

Edad Media[editar]

A diferencia de las conquistas de las religiones y las culturas anteriores, la llegada del islam, que fue difundida por los árabes y sirios, iba a tener a largo plazo efectos duraderos sobre el omnipresente Magreb.

La nueva fe, en sus diversas formas, penetraría en casi todos los segmentos de la sociedad, trayendo consigo los ejércitos, sabios, místicos y fervientes, y en gran parte infiltraría las prácticas tribales complicando y fragmentándolas por lealtades a las nuevas normas sociales y expresiones políticas. No obstante, la islamización y la arabización de la región eran complicadas y siguió un largo proceso con revueltas de carácter social tan profundamente enraizado y radicalmente opuesto a los nuevos órdenes como las que representaba el matriarcado previo bajo la líder Kahina. Los árabes tardaron casi 30 años en conquistar la región y pasaron otros 300 años arabizando el Magreb.

Las primeras expediciones militares árabes en el Magreb, entre 642 y 669 d. C., dieron lugar a la propagación del Islam. Estas primeras incursiones desde una base en Egipto se produjeron bajo la iniciativa local. Pero, cuando la sede del califato se trasladó de Medina a Damasco, los Omeyas reconocieron la necesidad estratégica de dominar el Mediterráneo con especial esfuerzo en los países de África del Norte. En 670, un ejército árabe liderado por Uqba ibn Nafi ocupó la ciudad de Kairuán, a unos 160 km al sur de la actual Túnez, y la usó como base para otras operaciones.

Abu al-Muhajir Dinar, sucesor de Uqba, siguió hacia el oeste de Argelia y, finalmente, elaboró un modus vivendi con Kusaila, la gobernante de una amplia confederación de bereberes cristianos. Kusaila, que tenía su base en Tilimsan (Tremecén), se convirtió al islam y trasladó su sede a Takirwan, cerca de Kairuán.

Pero esta armonía no duró mucho. Las fuerzas árabes y bereberes pugnaron por dominar la región hasta 667. En 711, las fuerzas omeyas ayudadas por bereberes conversos al islam habían conquistado todo el norte de África, pero la propagación del Islam entre los bereberes no significó su apoyo al califato dominado por los árabes, debido a su actitud discriminatoria. Los gobernadores designados por los califas omeyas gobernaron desde Kairuán, capital del vilayato (provincia) de Ifriqiya, que cubría Tripolitania (la parte occidental de la actual Libia), Túnez y el este de Argelia.

Las tensiones entre los árabes y los bereberes se fueron agravando, en parte a causa de que los primeros trataban a los segundos como musulmanes de segunda clase, y también por el hecho de que el poder estaba en manos de una minoría que, en el peor de los casos, llegaba a esclavizarlos. Las tensiones fueron en aumento hasta que estalló una revuelta, en los años 739-740, bajo el liderato de los jariyíes. Estos habían estado luchando contra los Omeyas en Oriente y muchos se sintieron atraídos por su ideología igualitaria. Después de la revuelta, los jariyitas establecieron una serie de reinos tribales teocráticos, la mayoría de los cuales tenían historias cortas y problemas. Pero otros, como Siyilmasa y Tilimsan, que eran atravesados por las principales rutas comerciales, tuvieron una historia más próspera y larga.

En 750, los abasíes, que sucedieron a los omeyas como califas musulmanes, trasladaron la capital a Bagdad y restablecieron la autoridad califal en Ifriqiya, nombrando a Ibrahim I ibn Aglab como gobernador en Kairuán. Aunque formalmente prestaban sus servicios al califa con gusto, Al Aglab y sus sucesores, los aglabíes, gobernaron de forma independiente hasta 909, y presidían un tribunal que se convirtió en un centro para el aprendizaje y la cultura.

Varias dinastías bereberes dominaron durante la Edad Media en el Magreb, Sudán, Italia, Malí, Níger, Senegal, Egipto e Hispania.

El Libro de la evidencia, de Ibn Jaldún, contiene una tabla que resume las dinastías del Magreb:

  • Barghawatas
  • Almorávides
  • Almohades
  • Benimerines
  • Háfsidas
  • Ziríes
  • Miknasas
  • Wattasíes
  • Benimerines, etc.

Según los historiadores, en la Edad Media los bereberes estaban divididos en dos ramas (Botr y Barnes), que descendían de Mazigh.[cita requerida] Cada región del Magreb estaba compuesta de varias tribus, como los Sanhaya, Hawwara, Zenata, Masmuda, Kutama, Awarba o Barghawata, las cuales tenían autonomía territorial y política.

Al-Ándalus[editar]

Artículo principal: Bereberes en al-Ándalus

Los musulmanes que entraron en Hispania en el año 711 no fueron solamente árabes, una parte de ellos fueron bereberes al mando de un bereber, Táriq ibn Ziyad, aunque bajo la soberanía del califa árabe Abd al-Malik y su virrey del norte de África, Musa ibn Nusair.

Según Ibn Jaldún, bereberes pertenecientes a las cuatro grandes confederaciones de los matgara,[36]​ miknasa, madyuna[37]​ y hawwara, todos miembros de la división Butr, emigraron a la península ibérica.[38]​ La otra gran división bereber es la Baranis,[38]​ subdividida en Kutama Zanata, Masmuda, Malila y Sanhaya. A título individual menciona también la presencia de familias pertenecientes a otras tribus, como los Sumata, rama de los Nafza, de la que procedía el visir Mundhir bin Sa’īd al-Ballūṭī.

Ibn Jaldún indica que los al-Baranis[39]​ eran sedentarios y que los Madghis al-Abtar, al-Botr o al-Butr eran nómadas.[40]

Ahora el hecho real, el hecho que prescinde de toda hipótesis, es este: los bereberes son los hijos de Canaan, el hijo de Cam, hijo de Noé. De esta línea descendió Berr que tenía dos hijos, Baranis y Madghis al-Abtar. Todas las tribus descienden de uno de estos dos hermanos y fueron clasificadas, por tanto, en Baranes o Botr. [41][42]

Según Al-Istajri, la mayoría de los bereberes en Al-Ándalus pertenecían a los Butr, con nafzíes y miknaníes entre Galicia y Córdoba y madyuníes y hawwaríes en Santaver. La mayoría de estos bereberes debieron llegar con Tariq o inmediatamente después.

Los bereberes ayudaron supuestamente a Abderramán I en al-Ándalus tras la masacre de su familia, cuya madre era bereber.

La Yamhara de Ibn Hazm menciona a finales del califato de Córdoba a los siguientes grupos: Wuzdaya, Malzuza, Magila, Miknasa, Zanata, Madyuna, Saddina, Nafza, Hawwara, Masmuda, Awraba, Zuwawa, Kutama y Sinhaya.

Durante la época de las taifas, algunas dinastías eran bereberes (como por ejemplo, los ziríes, reyes de Granada). El periodo de taifas terminó cuando la dinastía bereber de los almorávides se hizo cargo de al-Ándalus, hasta que fueron sucedidos por los almohades, otra dinastía bereber de Marruecos.

En la jerarquía de poder, los bereberes se encontraban entre la aristocracia árabe y los muladíes. La rivalidad étnica fue uno de los factores más importantes que impulsaron la política andalusí. Los bereberes componían hasta un 20 % de la población del territorio musulmán. Después de la caída del califato, los gobernantes de los reinos de taifas de Toledo, Badajoz, Málaga y Granada eran bereberes.

Edad contemporánea[editar]

Una antigua sala bereber en Marruecos.

Buena parte de la población del norte de África es bereber y se puede afirmar que la gran mayoría de sus poblaciones son descendientes de bereberes arabizados. Por eso del 35 al 40 % de la población marroquí y entre el 20 y 25 % de los argelinos[43]​ pueden hoy día identificarse como bereberes por hablar un idioma bereber. Si bien la cultura actual de algunos grupos étnicos bereberes, en particular en las zonas urbanas, se ha fundido con la de sus vecinos magrebíes de habla árabe, y sólo el lenguaje los diferencia, la mayoría mantiene hábitos culturales (vestimenta, fiestas, hábitat, gastronomía, música) propios de las diversas culturas bereberes.

Por lo tanto, las estimaciones más altas de la población de origen bereber podrían incluir a los grupos étnicos que no hablan una lengua bereber[cita requerida]. También hay pequeñas poblaciones bereberes en Libia, Túnez y Mauritania, aunque no se dispone de estadísticas exactas, y muy pequeños grupos en Mali, Burkina Faso, Egipto y Níger. Mayor número de personas constituyen los grupos bereberes de Argelia, los cabilios, que suman cerca de cuatro millones y que han mantenido, en gran medida, su lengua original y su cultura, y los chleuh del sur de Marruecos, que cuentan alrededor de ocho millones de personas. Hay unos 2,2 millones de inmigrantes bereberes en Europa, especialmente los rifeños y los cabilios, en Francia, Países Bajos, Bélgica y España. La mayoría de los habitantes de las islas Canarias son descendientes de los aborígenes guanches.[44]

Aunque estereotipados en Europa como nómadas, la mayoría de los bereberes fueron, de hecho, agricultores que vivían en las montañas relativamente cerca de la costa mediterránea o atlántica, y habitantes de los oasis. Pero los tuareg y zenaga en el Sáhara eran nómadas. Algunos grupos, como los Chaouis, practicaban la trashumancia.

En enero de 2010, los bereberes de Marruecos obtuvieron su propio canal de televisión.

Fuertes tensiones políticas surgieron entre algunos grupos bereberes (especialmente en Cabilia) y los gobiernos de los países magrebíes durante los últimos decenios, en parte por cuestiones lingüísticas y culturales. En Marruecos, por ejemplo, hasta hace muy poco estaban prohibidos los nombres bereberes.

Idioma[editar]

Mapa de las lenguas bereberes en el norte de África

Artículo principal: Lenguas bereberes

Las lenguas bereberes son un conjunto de idiomas camíticos de la familia de las lenguas afroasiáticas. Tienen unos veinte millones de hablantes,[45]​ de los cuales cerca de ocho millones viven en Marruecos,[46]​ y más de cuatro millones residen en Argelia,[47]​ aunque, como no consta en los censos de estos países, todas estas cifras son aproximativas y hay que revisarlas al alza.

El amazig posee alfabeto propio, el tifinagh, utilizado tradicionalmente por los tuareg y revivido en época reciente por lingüistas, instituciones y movimientos culturales berberistas, como el CMA. Se usa también el alfabeto latino en Argelia (con algunas letras griegas como γ) y el alfabeto árabe en otros lugares, como Marruecos, hasta la adopción oficial del tifinagh para la enseñanza.

No existe consenso total sobre la clasificación interna de las lenguas bereberes. Tradicionalmente[¿quién?][¿cuándo?] se identifican los siguientes grupos y subgrupos:

  1. Lenguas bereberes orientales
    A. Egipto: Siwi.
    B. Libia: Awjilah, Sokna, Nafusi, Ghadamsi.
  2. Lenguas bereberes septentrionales
    A. Lenguas bereberes del Atlas (Tamazight (Marruecos), Tashelhit (Marruecos), Judeo-Bereber (Palestina))
    B. Lenguas zenati (Ghomara, Mzab-Wargla, Shawiya, Tidikelt, Chenoua)
    C. Cabilio (taqbaylit)
  3. Lenguas de los tuareg (Tuareg septentrional (Argelia): Tamahaq, Tahaggart; Tuareg meridional: Tuareg (Malí), Tamajeq, (Tayart) (Níger), Tamajaq, Tawallammat (Níger))
  4. Lenguas zenaga (Mauritania)
  5. Lenguas guanches[cita requerida]

Los últimos dos grupos son unidades filogenéticas universalmente reconocidas por todos los autores, concentrándose en las discrepancias la clasificación de las lenguas bereberes septentrionales y orientales. Para algunos autores la división oriental es un subgrupo del grupo septentrional. Algunos autores consideran que algunas lenguas incluidas en el grupo zenati deben ser asignadas al grupo Atlas (ghomara). Para otros el grupo oriental y el grupo zenati forman una rama del bereber. El proyecto comparativo ASJP (Automated Similarity Judgment Program)[48]​ del Instituto Max Planck, basado en la cercanía léxica medida por la distancia de Levenshtein construye un árbol donde el grupo zenati y oriental aparecen intermezclados.

Religión[editar]

Por su implantación geográfica, los amazig conocieron todos los grandes movimientos religiosos que recorrieron la cuenca mediterránea desde la Antigüedad. Desde 180 d. C., participaron de la extensión del cristianismo, al que dieron tres papas, el más conocido de los cuales es Gelasio I. Cuando la dominación árabe se asienta definitivamente en África del Norte a finales del siglo VII, los amazig se convierten al islam, su religión mayoritaria hasta el siglo XXI. En el siglo XIX, la colonización francesa volvió a introducir parcialmente el cristianismo entre las comunidades amazig argelinas, principalmente a través de las misiones de los Pères Blancs (Padres Blancos), por lo que todavía existe una minoría católica. A partir de 1980, después de los graves acontecimientos de represión contra los movimientos amazig, ocurridos en Cabilia y conocidos como la «primavera bereber», se ha observado un movimiento de conversión al protestantismo.[49]​ Muchos sefardíes, por ejemplo de Puerto Rico, tienen sus raíces entre los bereberes. Estos bereberes siguieron la fe judía.[cita requerida]

En su mayoría, son conversos al islam sunita, si bien siempre ha habido grupos importantes aunque minoritarios de judíos y cristianos entre ellos, y una creciente minoría de no creyentes en el mundo laico moderno desde el siglo XIX. [cita requerida]

Gastronomía[editar]

Artículo principal: Gastronomía bereber

Tayín de verduras.

Se trata de una cocina ancestral que se enmarca dentro de las tradiciones y de los ingredientes comunes a la cocina magrebí (como el uso del cuscús, cuyo origen sería bereber)[50]​ y a la cocina mediterránea en general. No obstante, tiene particularidades dentro de las cocinas del norte de África que permiten reconocer muchos platos como típicamente bereberes. Una de las cocinas bereberes más reputadas es la del pueblo Zayán, en la región de Jenifra (Atlas Medio marroquí), donde abundan los cultivos de cereales. Algunos de sus platos son:

  • Shuá – Plato con carne de cordero
  • Los tayines ( también conocidos en el Riff como mamita) de diferentes carnes
  • Tangia – Especie de chile con carne
  • Cuscús dulce – Se trata de cuscús con mantequilla y un poco de leche y azúcar
  • Thamrikt – Un puré de habas con aceite de oliva
  • Aghrum – Pan casero de forma circular
  • Gofio: harina hecha de maíz tostada
  • Baghrir: parecido a una crepe, hecho de sémola, levadura, harina y sal.

Representación de un antiguo poblado aborigen canario.

Origen norteafricano[editar]

El ADN es uno de los componentes más importantes -quizás el más importante- con que han trabajado los historiadores para resolver dudas genéticas, poblacionales, etc. relacionadas con la demografía y rasgos de una población determinada. Junto a este elemento hay otros que lo completan, tales como las pruebas arqueológicas o las evidencias escritas. Las poblaciones norteafricanas y canarias están vinculadas desde tiempos muy remotos; así lo demuestran tanto los estudios biológicos realizados desde la década del los años 80 del siglo XX, como la historia, que intenta dilucidar cómo se poblaron las islas y la relación que existe entre los canarios -antiguos amazig o bereberes- y los pobladores norteafricanos, principalmente los marroquíes.

La evidencia apunta a que las poblaciones norteafricanas tienen cierta relación con las civilizaciones que se habían establecido en el levante peninsular o cerca de las costas europeas. Se han realizado diversos análisis y entre ellos destaca el de ADN mitocondrial, que intenta buscar solución a la incógnita de cómo llegaron dichas poblaciones al continente africano. Según los estudios, hay una secuencia de genoma entre los yacimientos descubiertos en el Levante y los yacimientos del Norte de África, con una datación del 5000 a. C., que confirma una continuidad genética a largo plazo entre dichas regiones. Por otra parte, aunque estén alejados genéticamente y compartan una ínfima parte, hay correlación entre los cazadores-recolectores norteafricanos asentados en la zona del Magreb y los establecidos en lugares cercanos como las costas europeas.

Además de las pruebas genéticas, que proporcionan datos de vital importancia, como ya se dijo, las pruebas arqueológicas también remiten a un pasado más cercano, y ofrecen como resultado cerámicas de decoración cardial, muy común en las zonas costeras de la península itálica o ibérica. Al unir con la evidencia genética, no quedan dudas de que, aunque fuera esporádicamente, hubo contacto entre estas poblaciones hasta tal punto que pudieron partir de ellas.

La partición también se puede ver desde un punto de vista teórico, donde se muestran diferentes teorías sobre la neolitización. Haciendo un balance de la puesta en común según las diferentes investigaciones dadas, el Neolítico pudo haberse dado, pero no desde un punto de vista material, es decir, a través del difusionismo, sino partiendo de las ideas, hablando así de la teoría denominada «percolativo o capilar». Las evidencias materiales también se muestran en la fauna existente en aquel entonces, como, por ejemplo, el hallazgo de diversos elementos norteafricanos en yacimientos ibéricos, como materiales propios de África o el mismo elefante africano, del que se afirma que «el estudio del ADN obtenido de restos de Paleoloxodon reveló que sus parientes vivos más próximos son los actuales elefantes africanos del bosque (Loxodontacyclotis)». Sin embargo, el contenido del ADN endógeno, el más estudiado para este tema, fue generalmente bajo entre las poblaciones norteafricanas y las poblaciones comprendidas en el levante peninsular o en las costas europeas, y apenas llega a un 2,88% de relación entre uno y otro. No obstante, eso no descarta que las poblaciones pudieran haber entablado algo más que un mero contacto mental.

La frontera de Gibraltar probablemente pudiera haber sido el punto de partida como lo fue mucho más adelante para poblaciones como los fenicios, romanos o vándalos. De lo que sí existe constancia es que las poblaciones bereberes, de las Islas Canarias, por ejemplo, ya estaban mezcladas con los europeos antes de la conquista romana del territorio hispano o magrebí. También es indispensable comentar que a este lugar del continente africano se le denomina la tierra de las caras blancas, en contraposición a la tierra de caras negras que se ubica en el África subsahariana, dándonos como resultado que, aunque vivan en el mismo continente, no pertenecen ni a la misma etnia y ni comparten el mismo ADN al cien por cien. Esto, físicamente, puede explicar también la relación que existe entre los europeos y los africanos pertenecientes al área del Magreb. En definitiva, existen diversas evidencias genéticas, aunque sean relativamente frágiles, que afirman la relación entre las poblaciones de Europa y las pertenecientes al continente africano.

Animación del ADN.

Origen de los amazig canarios[editar]

La colonización prehistórica canaria siempre se ha tratado de un tema bastante estudiado y castigado, no solo por los diversos investigadores que fomentan la historia escribiéndola y transmitiéndola, sino porque, al ser un hecho singular que solamente ocurre en un archipiélago conformado por ocho islas, las teorías que surgen son diversas y muchas de ellas no se comparten entre sí. El ADN se ha tratado, ni más ni menos, que de uno de los elementos más importantes utilizados en la comunidad científica para poder combatir las diferentes teorías que surgen en referencia a los primeros habitantes canarios y de donde proceden. Para ello, se ha llevado a cabo un estudio mitocondrial que conecta al antiguo aborigen del archipiélago con el antepasado más cercano encontrado en África, uniendo así los olvidados linajes aborígenes canarios.

Según las evidencias arqueológicas, los primeros pobladores se remontan al siglo I a. C. (Atoche, 2013), sin embargo, se ha dado mayor apoyo a los bereberes del noroeste africano para conformar los orígenes de los denominados comúnmente «guanches» o bereberes canarios. Los estudios nos hablan de una posible mezcla con los ibéricos, es decir, los pertenecientes a la península ibérica, en cuanto al linaje paterno, mientras que en el materno se conserva aún el linaje bereber. Esto se explica a través de las relaciones que tuvieron los castellanos con las indígenas establecidas en las islas, las cuales proceden sin ninguna duda del Norte de África, pudiendo ser esclavas y luego liberadas tras casarse con los castellanos colonizadores. La constitución del ADN bereber en las poblaciones canarias oscila entre un 42-73% de compatibilidad genética, principalmente con aquellas poblaciones provenientes de Mauritania o Marruecos, derivado del fondo genético materno.

Los estudios realizados sobre los cuerpos humanos pertenecientes a aborígenes canarios revelan que, aparte de compartir carga genética con los norteafricanos, se demuestra que la mitad de carga genética también está compartida con los humanos procedentes del sur ibérico. Esto nos da una revelación de que, aquellas poblaciones bereberes no solo tienen una procedencia norteafricana, sino también externa de dicho continente creándose así una sociedad multiétnica. A su vez, también existen estudios arqueobotánicos que nos demuestran la existencia de relación entre las poblaciones norteafricanas, principalmente en la zona de Marruecos, con aquellas poblaciones prehispánicas del pequeño continente canario. Las plantas, según los diversos estudios, fueron de gran valía para contextualizar los estudios genéticos nombrados anteriormente, hablando así de un proceso evolutivo tanto desde un punto de vista cultural como material, a través de materia prima procedente del continente africano, bereber. Las Islas Canarias fueron colonizadas o en el siglo I a. C., como nombramos anteriormente, o en el primer milenio d. C. procedentes del continente africano. Centrándonos en la segunda hipótesis para así esclarecer aún más la relación existente, el estudio de ADN sobre la cebada, tratándose de un cultivo bastante extenso realizado por los diversos canarios hasta la llegada de los conquistadores canarios, nos refleja una serie de datos que, posiblemente, relacione directamente a los indígenas canarios con las poblaciones del Norte de África. A su vez, no solamente se han basado en estudios carpológicos, sino también en estudios culturales observando cómo, hasta día de hoy, los habitantes de Marruecos siguen consumiendo dicha cebada, siendo uno de los elementos más comunes en su dieta, como lo fue para las poblaciones prehispánicas de Canarias.

Por otra parte, como se nombró con anterioridad, la población del Norte de África también muestra cierta relación genética con los europeos, tal y como estaba establecido para los habitantes canarios, sin embargo ¿Esto nos puede dar un resultado óptimo? Lo que si debemos de tener en cuenta es que, de una manera u otra, relaciona a las poblaciones canarias con un pasado completamente mixto, ya sea norteafricano o no trae consigo una gran relación con el Levante o el continente europeo. Las dataciones obtenidas a través de radiocarbono (AMS) nos muestran la evidencia de cebada muy parecida a la de Norte de África, fruto del intercambio entre los canarios y norteafricanos o de relación genética directa. Nosotros, para seguir analizando este hecho, nos centraremos en la relación genética puesto que los últimos estudios sobre dicho tema demuestran que las Islas Canarias, después de haber sido colonizadas por los primeros pobladores, se encontraba aislada hasta la llegada de los normandos y castellanos. Por lo tanto, se concluye que existe un genotipo de los especímenes canarios y norteafricanos que coinciden entre sí, aunque el canario presenta cierta diversidad genética, esto puede corresponder a que tanto los restos carpológicos como las personas pudieron proceder de diferentes lugares como Argelia, Túnez o Marruecos. Sin embargo, la mayor parte de las evidencias apuntan a que Marruecos, aparte de ser el sitio más cercano en cuanto a geografía, también existen más resultados que asemejan a dicha población con la prehispánica de canarias.

En definitiva, la mitad de los estudios establecidos demuestran que hubo relación directa entre las poblaciones procedentes del Norte de África, los bereberes, y las poblaciones prehispánicas de las Islas Canarias, no solo en evidencias antropológicas y culturales, sino también carpológicas y genéticas, las cuales nos dan más veracidad sobre el poblamiento de las Islas Canarias y, en consecuencia, adentrarnos un poco más en las poblaciones bereberes que cruzaron parte de océano Atlántico para asentarse en dichas tierras fértiles, deshabitadas y con una gran cantidad de materias primas, aparte de las traídas por ellos como la higuera o la cebada. El patrimonio genético es algo fundamental con lo que podemos, a día de hoy, gracias a los diversos estudios y análisis que se realizan, relacionar a la población magrebí con la antigua canaria y, a su vez, con la población europea antigua del Neolítico Tardío, de la cual pudieron proceder las poblaciones norteafricanas.

Líbico-bereber[editar]

Caracteres del alfabeto.

Origen y características del líbico-bereber[editar]

Según Renata A. Springer,[51]​ el líbico-bereber es un sistema escriturario compuesto de numerosos alfabetos, que ha sido empleado en África desde mediados del último milenio a. C. hasta la actualidad.[52]​ Muchos de ellos guardan grandes diferencias entre sí.Los alfabetos se agrupan en 4 modalidades: el líbico oriental (también conocido como numídico), el líbico occidental (conocido, a su vez, como masaesilio), el sahariano o tuareg antiguo, y el sahariano o tuareg reciente (también llamado tifinagh, que es la palabra que emplean los bereberes que usan esta modalidad para referirse a los caracteres de su abecedario). La modalidad tifinagh se le atribuye al pueblo tuareg, uno de los tantos pueblos bereberes que han existido y existen en la actualidad.[53]

Según Renata A. Springer e Irma Mora, las modalidades líbico-oriental y tifinagh son las más estudiadas.[54]​ Además, ambas afirman que la modalidad líbico-oriental es la única que ha podido ser transliterada y transcrita, debido a la presencia de inscripciones púnicas y latinas en los mismos epígrafes. El líbico oriental y el líbico occidental se circunscriben, ambos, a las zonas más septentrionales de África desde la antigüedad. El límite geográfico que separa a ambos líbicos se ha fijado, según Renata A. Springer, en la ciudad de Constantina, en Argelia. Asimismo, es preciso decir que la modalidad de sahariano o tuareg antiguo ya no se usa. En el caso del sahariano, es difícil establecer un límite geográfico entre el antiguo y el reciente. Es importante recordar que cada una de estas cuatro modalidades aglutina múltiples abecedarios. Además, existen textos alfabéticos presentes en las Islas Canarias, el Alto Atlas y el Anti-Atlas de Marruecos, y el Atlas Sahariano de Argelia que no están incluidos en ninguna de estas modalidades.

Incluso hay textos en la zona de Cabilia (Argelia), que comparten zona geográfica con las modalidades líbicas, pero que no se encuadran ellas. A la gran dificultad que supone la delimitación geográfica de las 4 modalidades, hay que añadir todavía existen inmensas zonas sin estudiar en los altiplanos argelinos, zonas del Sáhara, Mauritania y Libia. Por otro lado, debemos tener en cuenta que algunos caracteres se relacionan con una sola modalidad, mientras que otros pueden estar presentes en varias de ellas, en los que pueden conservar su valor o representar un fonema totalmente distinto. Además, en el estudio de los textos encontrados hay que tener en cuenta que hay signos que pueden equivaler, en su transliteración, a un fonema u otro, dependiendo de su orientación y de si siguen una línea vertical u horizontal.

En lo que al origen de líbico-bereber respecta, hay un cierto consenso dentro de la comunidad científica en la propuesta de un origen sincrético de la escritura líbico-bereber en torno a Cartago. Un indicativo de su origen es el alto porcentaje de estelas líbico-bereberes que esta región posee, pues, según I. Mora Aguiar, no parece verosímil que esta escritura se gestara en regiones donde su presencia fuera minoritaria. No hay nada que se oponga a dicho planteamiento de que esta región númida fuera el germen, pues los núcleos urbanos, normalmente, funcionan como el epicentro de atracción poblacional que concentra el poder político-económico, lo que favorece la difusión cultural. Por tanto, generó distintos alfabetos. Aunque se acepta, comúnmente, que el líbico-bereber proviene de un sustrato iconográfico antiguo que generó una escritura consonántica propia al entrar en contacto con el alfabeto fenicio o fenopúnica, actualmente la idea de un préstamo directo de las escrituras semíticas. Cabe destacar que no se han documentado formas intermedias entre la escritura fenopúnica y la líbico-bereber, pues las evidencias epigráficas hasta entonces siempre han mostrado una coexistencia entre ambos alfabetos desde el origen. No obstante, no se puede obviar la posibilidad de que existieran epígrafes sobre soportes perecederos y que solo pervivieran las evidencias epigráficas del líbico-bereber oriental de sus últimos momentos. Si así fuera, dicha escritura pudiera tener una mayor antigüedad que la que las evidencias arqueológicas indican, pues las inscripciones horizontales de Dugga (siglo II a.C) parece, según I. Mora Aguiar, más el producto de una evolución gráfica.
Aunque el líbico bereber oriental parece tener mayores analogías gráficas con el alfabeto fenicios, resulta necesaria una más profunda investigación epigráfica que preste atención tanto a las similitudes fonológicas como formales ante la ausencia de evidencias arqueológicas previas a los siglos III y II a. C.

Historiografía sobre el estudio del líbico-bereber en relación con Canarias[editar]

Carmen Díaz Alayón y Francisco Javier Castillo en su artículo Sobre la relación del bereber y la lengua prehispánica de Canarias: los estudios de Abercromby, Marcy y Wölfel plantean los distintos estadios por los que ha pasado la investigación de la escritura prehispánica canaria, que son los siguientes:

  • La primera etapa abarca desde comienzos de la segunda mitad del siglo XVI hasta el último tercio del siglo XVIII donde tuvo lugar diferentes afirmaciones y manifestaciones sobre la relación que existe entre el noroeste africano y el archipiélago en época pre – europea. Todo ello sustentado sobre la cercanía geográfica, los usos y costumbres análogas y las coincidencias en lo que al lenguaje se refiere.
  • La segunda etapa tiene comienzo a mediados del siglo XVIII con George Glas y llegas hasta comienzos del siglo XX. Fue aquí donde el paradigma cambió y comenzó a ponerse en relación las similitudes lingüísticas entre la escritura prehispánica canaria y la norteafricana.
  • El tercer estadio va desde 1917 con John Abercromby hasta la investigación más actual de los últimos años. En este momento la investigación se caracteriza por una noción cada vez más completa del dominio bereber y por una rigurosa posición sobre la cercanía de este a la realidad lingüística de los aborígenes.

A finales del siglo XIX y comienzos del XX, numerosos berberológos comienzan a tomar en cuenta los materiales canarios y poner en relación la lengua bereber con la canaria, dándose cuenta que ésta puede ser la clave para la explicación de la escritura prehispánica canaria.
A principios del siglo XX Abercromby fue el primero en establecer una clasificación de las formas canarias tras haberlas puesto en relación con las formas bereberes. Esto tuvo como resultado lo siguiente:

  • Clase I donde casi todas las formas coinciden completamente con las bereberes tanto en forma como en contenido.
  • Clase II donde una serie de palabras las relaciona dudosamente con el bereber, aunque parecen mostrar una adaptación propia de formas gramaticales y verbales.
  • Clase III que contiene una amplia lista de términos donde ninguno tiene relación con el bereber moderno y que, a su parecer, algunos pocos tienen un probable origen árabe.

No obstante, Abercromby no se queda solo con este primer resultado, sino que va un poco más allá y se centra en el estudio morfosintáctico. Así descubrió que hay palabras en todo el archipiélago que contienen el sonido no bereber de la p, el cual se da mayoritariamente en las lenguas hamíticas. Su sonido se encuentra en varias lenguas, pero la que realmente resalta es la libia occidental, pues esto demuestra la posibilidad de que los primeros pobladores, provenientes del norte africano, trajeran consigo en su sistema dicho sonido. Esto le llevó a pensar que la lengua canaria era un estadio primitivo del bereber moderno.
Wölfel llegó a la conclusión de que había una gran parte de material lingüístico que podía tener perfectos paralelos con el bereber, mientras una parte de ella era imposible explicarlo usando como modelo el bereber actual. Por tanto, confirma la clase III de la que Abercromby hablaba en su clasificación. Esto podría explicarse por una adaptación de la lengua bereber tras la llegada a la isla, como se plantea en la clase II de Abercromby. G. Marcy concluyó en sus numerosos trabajos lo mismo que Abercromby, pero añade algo más: Los primeros pobladores poseían elementos afines a los bereberes norteafricanos, sin excluir a la posible participación de otros núcleos no berberófonos en el poblamiento de Canarias. Pero debido a la documentación que disponía y a los estudios lingüísticos que había llevado a cabo creía poder afirmar que esos antiguos ocupantes no dejaron huella lingüística alguna.

Asentamiento natural de los aborígenes canarios.

Escritura líbico-bereber en Canarias[editar]

El caso de Canarias es importante porque en las islas coexisten dos sistemas escriturarios. Además, aparecen otras manifestaciones escriturarias, geométricas, simbólicas y figurativas,[52]​ que son los testimonios epigráficos que nos han llegado de los antiguos pobladores prehispánicos de las islas. Uno de ellos es el líbico-bereber, y el otro, el conocido como líbico-canario. Del líbico-bereber hay vínculos con algunas de las 4 modalidades africanas ya comentadas. Renata A. Springer afirma que de los 21 caracteres verticales del líbico-oriental, 18 aparecen en Canarias. En el caso de los tifinagh, de los 21 a 26 caracteres conocidos de sus alfabetos, solo la mitad aparecen en los epígrafes canarios.[53]

En cambio, «la escritura líbico-canaria no se ha identificado en ningún otro punto geográfico del continente africano, a excepción de Bu Njem en Libia», y solo está presente en las islas de Lanzarote y Fuerteventura, donde su uso se generalizó hasta tal punto, «que el líbico-bereber mantiene un carácter secundario y adjunto, más que auxiliar, del alfabeto líbico-canario».[55]​ Renata A. Springer y María A. Perera aseveran que «la escritura conocida como líbico-canaria no ha permitido hasta la fecha reconocer su adscripción a un sistema alfabético importado desde el exterior, por lo que se desconoce su historia y procedencia desde un lugar en concreto(. ..) aparentemente, la población optó en un momento dado por sustituir la grafía líbico-bereber por la líbico-canaria. Cómo, cuándo y por qué ocurrió este cambio aún se desconoce. Lo único seguro es que ambas perduraron conjuntamente durante cierto tiempo».

Dadas las nuevas inscripciones líbico–bereberes halladas en los últimos veinte años se ha podido constituir un vasto corpus que ha permitido la comparación de los signos usados en las islas para comprobar si hay divergencias entre ellas. No obstante, sigue siendo una gran incógnita el momento en que esta grafía arribó a las islas y cuál es el lugar de procedencia exacto. Esto se debe a que, mediante comparación con las lenguas norteafricanas actuales, se conoce que la escritura líbico – bereber canaria contiene signos compatibles tanto con textos líbicos del norte de Túnez como del noreste de Argelia, como del ámbito sahariano.
Aunque se ignora, en gran parte, si la lengua hablada (de lo poco que pudo rescatarse tras la conquista), como consecuencia de movimientos poblacionales procedentes de varias regiones norteafricanas a lo largo de distintas épocas, pudo ser un significativo reflejo de distinciones cronológicas y diatópicas. Según R. A. Springer, esta posibilidad parece ser avalada por una serie de testimonios, que parecen indicar que en algunas islas los canarios tenían hablas diferentes, aunque procedentes de un sustrato común. El hallazgo de cuantiosos yacimientos donde se han encontrado inscripciones se distribuye, en número, irregularmente en las islas, lo que restringe la aplicación homogénea de conclusiones a todo el archipiélago en un estudio comparativo. El Hierro y Lanzarote son las islas donde mayor concentración de inscripciones se ha hallado, mientras que en el resto de islas es sensiblemente menor. No obstante, las dos primeras islas aportan características de especial interés como la técnica, que son dos: la del picado, mayoritaria en El Hierro; y la de incisión, usada en casi todas las inscripciones lanzaroteñas. También cabe resaltar que en Gran Canaria hay inscripciones donde se ha usado ambas técnicas. Mientras que, en el norte africano y el Sáhara es fácil conocer el marco temporal que envuelve a las inscripciones en función de los motivos que predominan en los distintos períodos rupestres (bóvido, caballo, camello y búbalo), en Canarias esto no es aplicable porque no existe tal periodización rupestre. Los motivos característicos, dada su frecuente aparición, son de tipo geométrico, antropomorfo y podomorfo. Estos son elementos frecuentes en cualquier parte del mundo, lo que dificulta su posición en el tiempo y el espacio, y el desciframiento de su significado. R. A. Springer establece una clasificación de los motivos canarios atendiendo a la naturaleza de éstos distinguiendo lo siguiente: la escritura (grafía líbico-bereber y líbico-canaria), los motivos figurativos, subclasificados de la siguiente manera:

  • Motivos geométricos, que son mayoritarios.
  • Tendencia curvilínea, abundante en La Palma con técnica picada. De aquí también proceden los motivos de gran tamaño fundamentalmente.
  • Tendencia rectilínea, que abunda en el resto de islas.
  • Podomorfos, frecuentes en Lanzarote y Fuerteventura.
  • Antropomorfos, frecuente en Gran Canaria.

Lo cierto es que, el líbico–bereber no fue una escritura institucionalizada y se extendió por todo el norte africano sin pertenecer a una estructura estatal concreta, por lo que aún hoy se desconoce cómo se originó, pues no se conocen epígrafes o vestigios del empleo de esta escritura con fines relacionados con la contabilidad. Es muy posible que la falta de dicha institucionalización que regulase la escritura de esta lengua, fue lo que facilitó la proliferación de alfabetos variados.
Al menos, lo que, comparativamente, se conoce entre las modalidades norteafricanas y saharianas, parece demostrar que el corpus de caracteres empleados en las inscripciones canarias ha sido relativamente homogéneo. Así como las divergencias que se han detectado se han relacionado con la incorporación de un signo en alguna zona de yacimientos o yacimiento concreto y no parecen mostrar una distribución generalizada. Esta hipótesis es defendible, pues parece confirmar la idea de una evolución del alfabeto en Canarias a través del tiempo.[cita requerida]

Lenguas guanches – Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre

Las lenguas guanches (llamadas también bereber canario o tamazight insular) son un conjunto de variedades de las lenguas bereberes actualmente extintas que fueron habladas por los aborígenes canarios (conocidos genéricamente como guanches). [1]​ El idioma se extinguió hacia el siglo XVIII, si bien puede que pequeñas comunidades lo siguieran empleando hasta el siglo XIX.[2]​ Actualmente, la lengua se considera muerta y tampoco existen acciones por parte de las administraciones públicas para recuperarla,[3]​ aunque es usada en los actos religiosos de la Iglesia del Pueblo Guanche.[cita requerida]

La lengua de cada isla era muy similar, y se utilizaban nativos de unas islas como intérpretes en la conquista de las siguientes. Los habitantes de algunas islas vivían relativamente aislados unos de otros, sin contacto cotidiano. Por esa razón la lengua guanche debe ser considerada un complejo dialectal formado por diversas variantes parcialmente inteligibles entre sí. El idioma, aunque ha desaparecido, ha dejado una gran cantidad de guanchismos (palabras de origen guanche) en el español. Existe una obra que recopila las palabras y las oraciones en el idioma registradas por los españoles, el Monumenta Linguae Canariae. [4]

Si bien esta es la denominación más popular, el término guanche no es el más apropiado para hacer referencia a las lenguas habladas por los antiguos pobladores de las islas, como tampoco es correcto para designar a estos pobladores, debido a que, en principio, corresponde únicamente a la isla de Tenerife. El proceso de aculturación que tuvo lugar tras la conquista (siglo XV) llevó a la desaparición de las hablas bereberes del archipiélago en el siglo XVIII quedando algunas palabras relacionadas con la actividad ganadera, la flora, etnónimos y numerosos topónimos.

Otras denominaciones posibles son lenguas prehispánicas canarias, hablas de los antiguos canarios, bereber insular, amazigh insular, amazig insular, ínsuloamaziq.[5][6]​ Hay muy pocos testimonios escritos de estas lenguas recogidos durante el siglo XVI, pero no existe ninguna compilación gramática de ellas. Los términos que actualmente se conservan de dicha habla antigua, así como los recogidos por los cronistas permiten la identificación de dichas lenguas con el bereber.

Clasificación lingüística[editar]

El guanche no ha sido clasificado con certeza. Muchos lingüistas proponen que el guanche era probablemente un idioma bereber, o que al menos estaba relacionado con los idiomas bereberes. Sin embargo, las palabras bereberes reconocibles son principalmente vocabulario agrícola o ganadero, mientras que no se han identificado inflexiones gramaticales bereberes y hay una gran cantidad de vocabulario que no se parece en absoluto al bereber. Por ello, es posible que el guanche en realidad solo tuviera el bereber como sustrato y no perteneciera a su familia lingüística.[7]

Los testimonios conservados del guanche son escasos y se restringen a un conjunto de frases y palabras anotadas por los primeros colonizadores hispano-normandos, la toponimia de las islas y algunos préstamos léxicos que perduran en el español de las islas (el español canario).[4][8]​ Muchos de los topónimos canarios son reconocibles e interpretables en bereber, por ejemplo, la marca de femenino típica en t-…(-t) aparece en numerosos topónimos. Las frases pueden ser comparadas con las lenguas continentales para reconstruir la fonética y estructura original.[9]​ En ocasiones, las fuentes pueden ir acompañadas por una traducción contemporánea al castellano, lo que facilita el análisis.

Tanaga guayoch archimenseu nahaya dir hanido sahet chunga pelut > *Tanaqqa wayyaw wš, (aši)menzu nahağğa dir ɣandaw saɣet, šunga bel-wt. ‘El valeroso padre de la patria murió y dejó los naturales huérfanos’. Expresión popular de lamento emitida durante las exequias de Bencomo, recogida por Antonio de Viana.[10]
Alzanxiquian abcanahac xerax > *Als-ânɣ ikiyan abẓ/q a-nn ahaẓ Ahɣeraɣ. ‘Recomienza para nosotros el origen (del) ayuntamiento (que es) allí donde está el próximo (o el vínculo o el hijo) del Grande’. En este caso, el cronista Fray Alonso de Espinosa, autor de la fuente, aporta la traducción que ha servido para su estudio.[11]

El científico Antonio Arnaiz Villena apoya el hecho de que existen evidencias de influencia íbera y vasca entre los guanches. «Durante la conquista muchos creían que los guanches hablaban vasco, y por eso se eligió al primer obispo».[12]​ Los guanches, de hecho, mencionaron a un grupo de extranjeros que había llegado a las islas antes que los españoles:

Los naturales Guanches viejos dizẽ que tienẽ noticia de inmemorable tiẽpo, que vinieron a eſta Isla ſeſenta perſonas, mas no ſaben de donde, y ſe juntaron y hizieron ſu habitacion junto a Icode que es vn lugar deſta Isla, y el lugar de ſu morada llamauan en ſu lengua. Alzanxiquian abcanahac xerax, que quiere dezir, Lugar del ayuntamiento del hijo del grande.

Espinosa 1594, I, 4: 15v-16r.

Sistema de numeración[editar]

El sistema de numeración muestra un claro parentesco de las lenguas bereberes y las diversas variantes de guanche. Por ejemplo, la siguiente lista reproduce los numerales registrados en Gran Canaria con su correspondencia fonética original (indicado por *-), así como su comparación en la raíz proto-bereber. Nótese que los números tienen género (m. y f.), formándose el femenino con la fórmula final –yat / –at. (*Las variaciones “nait” para el numeral 1 y “liin / lin-” para el 2, inconsistentes con la reconstrucción del protobereber y con las otras formas atestiguadas, son consideradas erratas o copias erróneas de “v” y “s” cursivas en el texto original).

El explorador genovés Recco es conocido por haber proporcionado el primer relato fidedigno del idioma guanche en 1341, con una lista de los números 1-16, posiblemente de la variante de Fuerteventura. [cita requerida] El poeta canario Cairasco escribió los números en guanche en una canción.[13]​ Las formas atestiguadas entre paréntesis triangulares “⟨ ⟩” son préstamos léxicos del árabe, y no está clara la razón de porqué aparecen en la lista de Antonio Cedeño (posible contaminación oral o textual, en especial del 4 y el 5, arbah y khamza respectivamente).[14]​ Con motivo de la inclusión de estos dos vocablos en la lista, los numerales siguientes (“sumus”, “acot”, etc.) no concuerdan con las otras ennumeraciones.

En junio de 1341, dos naves fletadas por el rey Alfonso IV de Portugal y con tripulación florentina, genovesa y castellana, alcanzaron las islas bajo su mando y con la ayuda de su segundo, el florentino Angiolino del Tegghia de Corbizzi. Permanecieron allí durante cinco meses. A su regreso a Lisboa, el literato Giovanni Boccaccio escribió un retrato sobre el pueblo guanche, basándose en los datos que le había dado Recco. Los guanches fueron el grupo más numeroso del archipiélago y fueron los más longevos capaces de resistir la conquista llevada a cabo por castellanos y normandos en el siglo XV. Por eso, en la literatura científica popular, el término “guanches” se utiliza para todos los pueblos y lenguas indígenas de las islas del archipiélago.

A mediados del siglo XIV, en la isla de Gran Canaria, se utilizaron como intérpretes los primeros, en ese momento todavía pacíficas empresas misioneras de sacerdotes y monjes mallorquines, indígenas que habían llegado a Mallorca como esclavos. Se les había enseñado la fe cristiana, se les había bautizado y se les había liberado para hacer obra misional con su pueblo. Continuaron siendo analfabetos y es por eso que no dejaron información escrita.

Mientras que para la conversión de la población árabehablante a principios del siglo XVI, el entonces arzobispo de Granada, Hernando de Talavera, promovió un libro de texto de lengua árabe, y en América, especialmente por parte de los jesuitas por motivos de proselitismo, gramáticas y diccionarios de las lenguas de la población indígena, este no parece haber sido el caso en las Islas Canarias. Debido a la rápida integración lingüística y cultural de los viejos canarios en la nueva sociedad creada por los conquistadores cristianos, los misioneros aparentemente no consideraron necesario ocuparse de la lengua o lenguas de los indígenas.

Los mismos “viejos canarios” no dejaron constancia escrita. La información sobre los idiomas se mantiene a través de informes desde el momento del descubrimiento y la conquista. Todo lo que se sabe sobre las lenguas se documentó inicialmente según la reproducción de sonidos del normando, y más tarde del castellano. Con una excepción, los informes no describieron explícitamente el idioma; en cambio, los nombres personales, los nombres de lugares o los términos se dieron en el idioma correspondiente.

Descripción lingüística[editar]

Gramática[editar]

Los sustantivos en guanche mantienen de manera transparente prefijos y sufijos típicos de la morfología bereber, así muchos nombres masculinos empiezan por a- o i- (en proto-bereber un nombre masculino empieza por una de las vocales *a-, *i-, *u) como en el nombre de los menceyatos Abona, Adeje, Anaga, Icode, mientras que los femeninos empiezan siempre por t(a)- y frecuentemente conservan el circunfijo t-. ..(-t) como en Teberbite < *tebărəwwit, Tegueste < *tegăsət.[15]

Artículo principal: Tifinag

Desde el último tercio del siglo XIX se conoce la existencia de inscripciones y grabados en piedra cuyos signos son semejantes al alfabeto tifinagh usado por los bereberes del continente africano. [17]​ Estos textos guanches parecen ser inscripciones líbico-bereberes en las islas occidentales y neo-púnicas en las islas orientales y en algunas zonas de Tenerife y La Palma. Nótese que la dirección de la lectura de los signos pudo ser de arriba abajo o de izquierda a derecha, además de que en tifinagh no se distinguen las vocales.[18]​ Algunas de estas inscripciones han podido ser descifradas usando vocabulario continental y el tifinag como referencia para reconstruir la lengua original, obteniendo textos con un significado verosímil y coherente como resultado.[19]

Texto en La Caleta, El Hierro:

ZYRMNZ > *Izây yur amenzu. Lit. ‘Está a punto de llegar la luna que viene primero’, fig. ‘Ya llega la primera luna’.[20][21]

Texto en Barranco de La Angostura, Gran Canaria:

ZMRW YZMWKR GTW > *Za əmirəw: əyyu zam, awa akkar igət wa. Lit. ‘Por lo que respecta a la obediencia: abandona la reserva de agua, eso es robar la (verdadera) abundancia’. [22][23]

El fundador de la literatura canaria, Bartolomé Cairasco de Figueroa, quien incorporó a sus obras elementos característicos de la cultura canaria tras la conquista de este archipiélago, escribió un buen número de obras literarias, entre ellas Templo Militante y la Comedia del Reçebimiento que se hizo al Reverendísimo Señor don Fernando de Rueda, obispo de Canarias, el día 8 de mayo de 1582 (una pieza teatral breve que pertenece al tipo de teatro “de entradas”),[24]​ que son muy importantes para la investigación de los monumentos de importancia en la lengua canaria.[4]

En la Comedia del Reçebimiento se menciona una “lengua extraña”, que Cairasco incluyó en partes de su obra. Esta es trabajada por los lingüistas junto con el resto del material presentado en la comedia, pues contiene diálogos en guanche.[25]​ Uno de los diálogos de Doramas:

Aguay marana en maraguas ay ha acha aytimadas ayta ast Autindana ast Chanbeneguer ast Bentagayre.

Comedia del Reçebimiento, B. Cairasco, 1582.

Poco después, un personaje llamado “Sabiduría” explica el significado del diálogo anterior:

¿Saben qué dice? Que, si está aquí Autindana, o Chanbeneguer, o Bentagayre, tres canarios valentísimos, porque quiere luchar con ellos.

Comedia del Reçebimiento, B. Cairasco, 1582.

El guanche y otros idiomas[editar]

Existe una gran cantidad de palabras de origen guanche en español, aunque esto se puede notar más en la variante hablada en las Islas Canarias. El 55% de los guanchismos son nombres de lugares, el 23% nombres de personas y el 17% nombres de objetos. Palabras como gofio, tagoror, mencey, baifo, jaira, gambuesa, chajorra, tabaiba, tajinaste, mol, calcosa, cárisco, irama, perenquén, guirre, chuchanga, sarantontón, folelé, etc. provienen del guanche.[26]​ Además, en la actualidad se siguen conservando topónimos guanches, sobre todo en nombres de municipios (Gáldar, Tijarafe, Alajeró, Tacoronte, Telde, Teror, Tuineje o Teguise) o pueblos (Timijiraque, Tigalate, Chipude, Taganana, Tunte, Tetir o Güime) y de personas (Ossinissa, Acerina, Agoney, Adassa, Acoidan, Tibiabin, Mahey), etc. [27][28]

El silbo, una forma silbada del habla guanche utilizada para comunicarse a largas distancias, fue un lenguaje silbado que se usó en La Gomera, El Hierro, Tenerife y Gran Canaria. Se asume que el sistema fonético guanche debe haber sido lo suficientemente simple como para permitir que el silbo fuera eficiente. A medida que la lengua guanche se extinguía, los habitantes de las Islas Canarias lo adaptaron al español creando el silbo gomero, el cual es enseñado y utilizado en la actualidad por habitantes de La Gomera.[29]

Frases de ejemplo[editar]

Lo que deberías saber sobre la historia de los guanches

Pero… ¿De dónde venían los habitantes de las Islas Canarias?

Las investigaciones que se han realizado hasta la fecha indican que los guanches presentan un claro parentesco sociocultural con las antiguas etnias bereberes que vivían y que todavía viven en el norte occidental de África, antes del establecimiento de los árabes.

Los expertos aseguran que la población antigua de Canarias desarrolló su cultura desde el 500 a.C. hasta el siglo XV, finalizando con la conquista del archipiélago.

Aun así, a día de hoy se desconoce las causas de su emigración y si llegaron por sus propios medios con unos objetivos preestablecidos o de lo contrario fue algo ajeno a su voluntad.

El encuentro con los guanches

Cuando llegaron los primeros conquistadores a las islas, estos se encontraron con una población con unas condiciones de vida muy diferentes a ellos en todos los sentidos. Su aspecto físico era robusto, de grandes espaldas, piel morena y bellas facciones.

Tal es así que existen escritos y relatos antiguos de los conquistadores que los definen de tal manera:

«ld por todo el mundo y casi no hallaréis en ninguna parte personas más hermosas ni gente más gallarda que la de estas islas, tanto hombres como mujeres, además de ser de buen entendimiento si hubiese quien los cultivase».

La forma de vivir de los aborígenes

En cuanto a su forma de vida, las condiciones volcánicas de las islas les brindaban a los aborígenes la posibilidad de construir cuevas que utilizaban como vivienda habitual.

Los aborígenes de Canarias, por tanto vivían en cuevas naturales situadas en las laderas de los barrancos o en acantilados costeros.

Las cuevas, hechas con muros de piedra seca, acondicionaba las habitaciones. Las partes más iluminadas y orientadas hacia el exterior se usaban como cocina. Sin embargo, las zonas menos iluminadas y orientadas hacia el interior de la cueva se usaban como dormitorios.

Se dedicaban a la agricultura y a la ganadería y se alimentaban principalmente de gofio (cultivo de la cebada y el trigo, que tostaban y molían), de leche de cabra y de la práctica de la caza de cerdos salvajes, cabras y ovejas.

Su vestimenta se caracterizaba por el uso de pieles curtidas de las cabras u ovejas para tapar sus partes más íntimas, dejando el resto del cuerpo al descubierto.

La cultura guanche tenía una similitud a las tribus bereberes del norte de África, con un desarrollo cultural avanzado. Los guanches se distinguieron por su carácter artístico, pues usaban de adorno collares de cerámica, huesos, vértebras o madera.

Además creaban cuencos de cerámica con dibujos geométricos que usaban como utensilios domésticos o de decoración.

Por otro lado, a modo de defensa o para la práctica de caza, crearon armas muy rudimentarias a base de piedras pulidas con bordes afilados, o envueltas en piel y sujetas con cuerdas, lanzas, etc.

Sorprendente o no, todas ellas muy efectivas a la hora de luchar contra los invasores, quienes necesitaron casi de 1 siglo para ganar la conquista de los pueblos guanche.

Sin embargo, es destacable que, al contrario de las otras culturas antiguas. No se ha encontrado yacimientos arqueológicos o documentos que demuestren que estos aborígenes tuvieran ningún tipo de conocimientos de navegación.

Con respecto a su religión, la mitología guanche tenía dioses diferentes en cada isla y sus creencias religiosas estaban especialmente unidas a las momias guanches.

La momificación o preservación del cuerpo fallecido mediante técnicas de embalsamiento, era una costumbre o rito en las clases sociales más altas y relacionado con la vida eterna.

Los antiguos pobladores de Canarias se comunicaban con un idioma de origen líbico-bereber, denominado también «idioma guanche».

Por desgracia este lenguaje despareció completamente tras la conquista. Estudios demostraron que proviene de dialectos berberiscos por la similitud en las raíces de las palabras.

Hoy en día sólo se han conservado palabras concretas que se mantienen en el actual habla canaria. Estas palabras hacen alusión a objetos, fauna y flora específica de las islas.

Alguno de los ejemplos son:


«Tajinaste»
: planta autóctona situada en el Parque Nacional del Teide.
«Baifo»: para referirse a la cría de la cabra.
«Tabaiba»: planta canaria.
«Perenquén»: tipo de salamandra de las islas.

Guanches en Tenerife

La conquista de las Islas Canarias comenzó en 1402 en Lanzarote y terminó 94 años después, en 1496, en Tenerife, cuando Alonso Fernández de Lugo, perteneciente a la Corona de Castilla, puso fin a la conquista tras las duras batallas contra los habitantes del archipiélago.

En 1494, cuando comenzó la conquista de la isla de Tenerife, ésta se encontraba dividida en nueve reinos o menceyatos. Cada reino tenía un rey llamado Mencey. Éstos eran la máxima autoridad civil, religiosa y militar en la región en la que gobernaban.

Hoy en día muchos de estos reinos o menceyatos se han convertido en municipios y conservan su nombre original, por ejemplo La Orotava, en el norte de la isla de Tenerife, lugar donde más adelante sirvió de alojamiento ocasional para grandes científicos y naturalistas como Alexander Von Humboldt, considerado uno de los fundadores de la geografía moderna, además de explorador y experto en ciencias naturales.

Guanches en Candelaria

En el municipio de Candelaria, junto a la Plaza de la Patrona de Canarias, se encuentran nueve esculturas de bronce que representan a cada uno de estos menceyes.

Acaymo, mencey de Tacoronte: Gobernador en el menceyato de Tacoronte, en el norte de Tenerife, que ocupaba los actuales municipios de Tacoronte, La Matanza de Acentejo y El Sauzal.

Adjona, mencey de Abona: Gobernador del extenso menceyato de Abona, situado al sur de Tenerife. Ocupaba los territorios que hoy son los municipios de Fasnia, Arico, Granadilla de Abona, San Miguel y Vilaflor

Añaterve, mencey de Güímar: Su territorio ocupaba los actuales municipios de El Rosario, Candelaria, Arafo y Güímar, así como parte de Santa Cruz de Tenerife y La Laguna.

Bencomo, mencey de Taoro: Su territorio ocupaba la Villa de La Orotava, La Victoria de Acentejo, Santa Úrsula, Puerto de la Cruz, Los Realejos y San Juan de la Rambla.

Beneharo, mencey de Anaga: Sus tierras ocupaban gran parte del macizo de Anaga.

Pelicar, mencey de Icod: El menceyato de Icod ocupaba los actuales municipios de La Guancha, Icod de los Vinos y el Tanque, además de parte de Garachico.

Pelinor, mencey de Adeje: Su menceyato ocupaba 180 km2 de los actuales municipios de Adeje, Guía de Isora, Santiago del Teide y parte de Arona.

Romen, mencey de Daute: Sus tierras ocupaban los actuales municipios de Buenavista del Norte, Los Silos y parte de Garachico.

Tegueste, mencey de Tegueste: Este mencey ocupaba los actuales municipios de Tegueste y gran parte de San Cristóbal de La Laguna.

¿quiénes fueron y cómo vivían?

Antes de la conquista castellana de Canarias, allá por el siglo XV, en el archipiélago vivía una cultura aborigen: los guanches.

Aunque las excavaciones arqueológicas y los contactos con los europeos han permitido saber un poco sobre esta cultura, su lengua, ritos religiosos y organización social, muchos aspectos guanches siguen siendo un misterio. Viajemos a las islas Canarias para descubrir esta tan interesante cultura.

  • Artículo relacionado: “Las 4 principales ramas de la Antropología: cómo son y qué investigan”

¿Quiénes eran los guanches?

Los guanches son el nombre con los que se conocen a los antiguos aborígenes de las islas Canarias, aunque su origen etimológico hace referencia sobre todo a la cultura que habitaba la isla de Tenerife antes de la conquista castellana de 1496. Han sido relacionados con los pueblos bereberes del norte de África.

La palabra guanche tiene un origen incierto, aunque varios historiadores, filólogos y conquistadores de la época señalan que procede del propio idioma de los guanches, apareciendo la palabra ya en documentos oficiales de la época en la que se procedió a la conquista. La palabra guanche probablemente sea una forma sincopada de “guanchinerfe”, que significaría “hombre de Chinerfe”, siendo Chinerfe el nombre que daban los guanches a la isla de Tenerife.

¿De dónde venían?

Los guanches tuvieron que llegar por mar, pese a que los primeros contactos entre estos pueblos y los europeos vinieron a indicar que habían perdido todo conocimiento de navegación. A diferencia de lo que se suele ver en otras culturas insulares, estos no tenían ningún tipo de embarcación que les permitiera viajar entre islas, pese a que de algún lugar tuvieron que venir. Lo curioso es que este hecho fue el que hizo que los grupos guanches de cada isla fueran diferenciándose con el paso del tiempo de forma muy marcada.

De acuerdo con los yacimientos arqueológicos de Icod de los Vinos (Cueva de los Guanches), los primeros humanos en habitar Tenerife debieron vivir en el siglo VI a. C. Mediante análisis genéticos, se ha visto que estas poblaciones debían estar relacionadas con los antiguos bereberes del norte de África. Cerca del 55% del linaje guanche tiene relación con la genética de las gentes del Magreb.

La colonización de las islas por afroamericanos se produjo, seguramente, por medio de diversas migraciones, motivadas por la desertización del Sáhara y la búsqueda de lugares libres de la invasión fenicia y romana que se asentó en la costa mediterránea africana.

¿Cómo eran físicamente?

De acuerdo con descripciones de los primeros exploradores europeos, como es el caso del fraile Alonso de Espinosa, los guanches propios de la isla de Tenerife tenían dos subrazas: los del sur eran de piel morena, mientras que los de la parte norteña eran más blancos e, incluso, rubios.

Los estudios antropológicos han dividido los restos guanches en dos tipos, dependiendo de su forma craneal. Hay quienes se les ha denominado cromañoides, con la cara ancha y robusto, y de cráneo alargado y estrecho, y los mediterranoides, de caras altas y con cráneos cortos.

Si bien estamos hablando de un grupo humano como cualquier otro, lo que llama la atención es que parece que presentaban un acusado dimorfismo sexual. Los hombres eran más robustos y altos, midiendo entre 160 y 170 centímetros, mientras que las mujeres rara vez superaban los 160 cm. Cabe indicar que estas estaturas variaban en función de la zona. Existió una población que vivió en los macizos montañosos de Anaga y Teno, aislada del resto, en donde los hombres no eran más altos que 160 cm y las mujeres medían menos de 150 cm, teniendo una menor diferenciación sexual.

Su esperanza de vida debía oscilar entre los 30 y 45 años, aunque seguramente los nobles, mejor alimentados y sin tener que realizar grandes esfuerzos físicos, llegaban hasta los 65 años.

Características de la cultura de los nativos de las Islas Canarias

Estasson las principales características culturales de los guanches.

La lengua guanche

La lengua guanche es el conjunto de hablares que hablaban los aborígenes canarios. Este idioma estaba relacionado con las lenguas bereberes, y por esto ha sido denominado también bereber canario o tamazight insular. Se han encontrado inscripciones y grabados de piedra cuyos signos son semejantes al alfabeto tifinagh usado por los bereberes, lo cual es considerado una evidencia de la relación con el tamazight.

Aunque lo más probable es que el idioma se extinguiera hacia el siglo XVIII hay quienes creen que podría haber llegado a sobrevivir hasta el siglo XIX. Hoy en día no se conoce a ningún hablante nativo de esta lengua, además de que se tiene relativa poca información sobre su gramática y léxico.

No obstante, no son pocos los topónimos canarios cuyo origen es guanche, especialmente los nombres de municipios, como Gáldar, Alajeró, Timijiraque y Chipude, además de algunos nombres de persona, como Mahey, Acoidan, Agoney, Ossinissa. También han sobrevivido varias palabras en el dialecto español hablado en Canarias, como baifo (cría de cabra), gofio (grano tostado y molido), gánigo (vasija de barro), beletén (primera leche) o guirre (buitre).

¿De qué se alimentaban?

La principal actividad de subsistencia guanche era la ganadería y el pastoreo de trashumancia, compuesta básicamente por cabras y ovejas. También habían introducido cerdos y perros de raza pequeña, llamados cancha. En algunos yacimientos se han encontrado restos de gatos y erizos y se cree que todos estos animales podrían haber formado parte de la dieta aborigen, más que ser animales de compañía o de producción de tejidos. Del ganado, además de comer su carne, que la tomaban a medio asar y sin acompañamiento, obtenían leche o “ahof”, de la que hacían una mantequilla llamada “oche”.

La agricultura se desarrollaba como práctica complementaria, siendo de secano y muy rudimentaria. Cultivaban cebada, trigo y diversas legumbres. Con los cereales, una vez tostados y molidos, hacían gofio o “ahoren”, que era tomado mezclado con agua, leche o manteca. Con ese mismo trigo molido y cocido con leche y manteca hacían una especie de gachas. La actividad agricultora era más intensa en el norte de Tenerife, dado que es ahí donde hay mejores condiciones climáticas. También tomaban bayas salvajes.

¿Cómo eran sus casas?

Los guanches vivían normalmente en cuevas, o en construcciones sencillas hechas a mano con piedra. Preferían vivir en las cuevas situadas en las laderas de barrancos y acantilados costeros. La parte más externa de la cueva, con mayor iluminación, era reservada como cocina, en donde se podían encontrar molinos y vasijas. La parte más oscura de la cueva servía de dormitorio.

No existían poblados en el sentido estricto de la palabra. Las familias y los individuos solos se agrupaban según cómo estuvieran dispuestas las cuevas.

Indumentaria

Los guanches vestían de forma primitiva pero bastante trabajada. Su vestimenta consistía en una capa hecha de piel de cabra u oveja, amarrada con correas al cuello, que se llamaba “tamarco”.

Las mujeres llevaban camisón sin mangas, hecho con dos piezas de piel de gamuza y cosida con correas de cuero. Los genitales eran cubiertos por una especie de taparrabos, llamado “ahico”, y era común en hombres y mujeres. Estas prendas las confeccionaban las mujeres, usando punzones de hueso y espinas de pescado.

Armas

Aunque aislados del resto del mundo, los guanches eran también una sociedad guerrera, aunque los conflictos solían ocurrir entre ellos, sobre todo cuando había habido un robo o alguna invasión territorial.

Las armas eran lanzas, mazas, garrotes y piedras arrojadizas. Usaban sus tamarcos a modo de escudo. Ya desde bien pequeños eran criados en el arte de la guerra, siendo muy hábiles lanzando y esquivando proyectiles.

¿Cómo era su sociedad?

La sociedad guanche estaba fuertemente jerarquizada en forma de pirámide, con un estamento de nobles que poseía los medios de producción, básicamente el ganado y las tierras, y otro estamento, el plebeyo, que aportaba mano de obra.

En la cima de la jerarquía se hallaba el rey guanche, llamado “mencey”, encargado de la redistribución de los medios productivos, del que partían otros tres estratos cercanos a él familiarmente. La alta nobleza estaba conformada por sus familiares más cercanos, los achimencey, que eran sus sucesores. Luego venían los cichiciquitzo, estamento que se correspondería con la nobleza de segunda clase. En la base de la sociedad se encontraba los achicaxna, que eran la plebe.

La diferenciación social venía representada por el aspecto físico, teniendo lo hombres nobles permiso para lucir largas barbas y cabelleras, mientras que la plebe debía ir rasurada.

El mencey era ayudado por un consejo de nobles, quienes administraban la justicia. Entre los castigos empleados se hallaban los azotes públicos dados con la vara del rey o “añepa” y no ejercían la pena de muerte. Aquel quien hubiera cometido un asesinato era condenado al destierro, y debía indemnizar a la familia de la víctima con cabezas de ganado.

Religión y ritos funerarios

La mitología guanche es diversa, dado que era muy distinta de isla en isla. La principal festividad religiosa era el Beñesmer o fiesta de la cosecha. Los guanches creían que su organización social venía representada por la forma en cómo había sido creado el mundo. Una deidad creadora había hecho primero a los nobles, a quienes les había dado ganados y tierras, y después hizo al resto de la población, para que sirvieran a los primeros.

En la isla de Tenerife creían en Achamán, que era el dios representante de lo bueno, de lo supremo, de la suerte y la benevolencia. Como contraparte estaba Guayota, el demonio, quien habitaba en el interior de Echeide o el infierno, palabra guanche del que viene el nombre del Teide. Magec era el dios del sol, siendo una de las deidades principales.

Los guanches rendían culto a sus antepasados y, aquellos que se lo podían permitir, los momificaban. Las técnicas de momificación eran bastante similares a las que usaban los antiguos egipcios, extrayendo algunas de las vísceras del difunto.

Practicaban sacrificios, tanto animales como humanos, aunque es un rasgo muy poco conocido de los guanches. Durante el solsticio de invierno tenían la costumbre de degollar a parte del ganado y arrojarlo a una hoguera hasta que el humo subiera al cielo.

Contacto con los europeos

Los primeros contactos entre guanches y europeos ocurrieron en la segunda mitad del XIV, siendo visitados esporádicamente por navegantes mallorquines. Fue a partir de la llegada de Jean IV de Béthencourt en 1402 cuando Tenerife fue el escenario de frecuentes incursiones en busca de esclavos, mercado el de la esclavitud que acababa de reemerger en Europa.

En 1464 se intentó conquistar la isla por primera vez. Diego García de Herrera, autoproclamado señor de Canarias, pretendió someter a los guanches, pero vio que los castellanos eran inferiores numéricamente a los isleños. Firmó un tratado de paz con los menceyes de la isla, quienes le permitieron construir una torre. El tratado fue roto en 1472 y los europeos fueron expulsados de la isla.

Tras varios intentos por parte de los europeos sin mucho éxito, teniendo una relación ambivalente con uno de los menceyes, Bencomo de Taoro, la conquista de la isla se completó en mayo de 1496, cuando los menceyes deciden rendirse tras haberse ido debilitando progresivamente. El acto de sumisión se oficializó por medio de la Paz de los Realejos.

Mencey o Reyes Guanches

Bencomo fue un caudillo aborigen guanche de la isla de Tenerife −Canarias−, siendo el rey o mencey de Taoro a finales del siglo xv, y protagonista de los acontecimientos de la conquista europea de la isla al dirigir la resistencia isleña.1

Era el mencey más poderoso de la isla, siendo tratado por los europeos con el apelativo de Gran Rey y por los guanches de quebehí, ‘alteza’.

Taoro: Ocupaba los actuales municipios de La Victoria de Acentejo, Santa Úrsula, La Orotava, Puerto de la Cruz, Los Realejos y San Juan de la Rambla.

Antroponimia

Este antropónimo aparece escrito en las fuentes también como Benytomo, Bentomo, Benchomo y Venitomo.

En cuanto a su posible significado, el filólogo Ignacio Reyes propone ‘ambicioso’ desde una forma primaria we-n-ytum, mientras que Juan Álvarez Delgado apunta como forma originaria del nombre Benchomo desde wen-chum, ‘ser mejor’, ‘valer mas’.

El origen del nombre Bencomo se supone en una posible lectura errada que consideró la versión original ‘Benchomo’ como un cultismo latino (ch > k/c, como se usaba en términos latino-helénicos en el castellano medieval).

Nombre cristiano

Algunos historiadores y genealogistas, siguiendo al poeta Antonio de Viana,consideran que Bencomo sobrevivió a los enfrentamientos, rindiéndose en 1496 en el acto de sumisión conocido como Paz de Los Realejos, y que, tras ser bautizado, recibió el nombre de Cristóbal Hernández, al que algunos incluyen el segundo apellido Bencomo o de Taoro.

Familia y descendencia 

Para José de Viera y Clavijo, Bencomo era hijo de Imobach, nieto de Betzenuhya y bisnieto de Tinerfe el Grande. Tenía un hermano, Tinguaro, que luchó a su lado durante la conquista castellana.

Se casó con Caseloria y juntos tuvieron tres hijos: Bentor, Dácil (bautizada luego como Mencía Bencomo) y María Bencomo. Sus nietos fueron Ruymán, Rosalva, y Collarampa (hijos de Bentor), Dácil o Dácila (quien se casó con el conquistador Fernán García Izquierdo y se bautizó como Catalina Izquierdo), Juan, María y Elvira Bencomo (hijos de Dácil Bencomo) y Catalina González (hija de María Bencomo).

Antes de la conquista castellana

Para el historiador Tomás Arias Marín de Cubas, Bencomo tenía al morir «casi o más de setenta años», por lo que su nacimiento se habría producido en torno al año 1425.

En el momento que precede a la conquista, la isla de Tenerife se hallaba en un conflicto entre los distintos menceyatos. Bencomo pretendía constituir un poder hegemónico en toda la isla, lo que produjo un enfrentamiento con los menceyatos del sur, de menor riqueza ecológica. La presencia europea en las islas había ido acelerando un proceso de progresiva complejización en la organización del poder, tendente a una mayor jerarquización.

Durante la conquista 

A la llegada del ejército conquistador al mando de Alonso Fernández de Lugo en mayo de 1494, Bencomo se aprestó a rechazar la invasión desde un primer momento. Poco después del desembarco en Añazo, Lugo se desplazó a la Laguna, donde lo esperaba el mencey de Taoro con numerosos guerreros. Allí se entabló parlamento, ofreciendo Lugo, según algunos historiadores, amistad, conversión al cristianismo y sometimiento a los Reyes Católicos. Bencomo aceptó lo primero, se extrañó de lo segundo y se ofendió por lo tercero, resultando enemigas ambas partes. Benchomo se retiró a su territorio, donde recabó la ayuda de los demás menceyes de la isla, uniéndosele los de Tegueste, Tacoronte, Icod y Daute, formando así los bandos de guerra.

Bencomo dirigiría en persona los enfrentamientos consiguientes, destacándose la conocida como Matanza de Acentejo a finales de ese mes de mayo. El mencey planeó cercar a los castellanos en el barranco de Acentejo, enviando a su hermano Tinguaro con trescientos guerreros por los altos de la zona para partir el ejército conquistador en dos, estando él mismo al frente del grueso de las fuerzas guanches que atacarían la vanguardia. De esta batalla resultaron terriblemente derrotados los conquistadores, teniendo Lugo que retirarse de la isla.

En 1495 regresan los conquistadores, y Bencomo vuelve a reunir sus fuerzas para enfrentarse nuevamente a la invasión. El 14 de noviembre tuvo lugar la conocida como batalla de la Laguna. Según los historiadores, Bencomo, crecido por la anterior victoria, planteó hacer frente a los conquistadores en las llanuras próximas a la Laguna, enviando a su vez a trescientos o cuatrocientos guerreros inadvertidamente hacia Añazo por el barranco de Tahodio para que cortaran la retirada de las tropas castellanas. El mencey ordenó entonces sus fuerzas en tres partes: el centro, dirigido por él mismo, el ala derecha, por Acaimo de Tacoronte, y el ala izquierda por Tinguaro.

Después de horas de refriega, se impusieron los conquistadores, resultando malherido el propio mencey Bencomo, que moriría en el campo de batalla. Sin embargo, su muerte y la de su hermano Tinguaro se superponen en algunos historiadores e igualmente se pone en duda el nombre del soldado responsable de su caída.11 El fraile-historiador Alonso de Espinosa cita al respecto:

Entre otros peleó ese día valentísimamente el rey de Taoro, porque con una alabarda, dicen se defendió de siete hombres de a caballo, y al cabo se escapó dentre ellos y se subió por la cuesta de San Roque. Mas aunque destos se escapó, no pudo escaparse de un fulano de Buendía, que sin conocerlo ni saber que era rey (aunque él en su lengua se lo decía ser el Mencey, que es rey), como no lo entendiese, no le valió su reinado, que le pasó con la lanza en un barranquillo estrecho, do quedó…

Tras la muerte de Benchomo, los supervivientes eligieron a su hijo Bentor como mencey de Taoro y líder de la resistencia.

El apellido Bencomo

Bencomo es uno de los apellidos de origen guanche que perduran en la población canaria −según el INE, en 2015 había 1 377 personas con este apellido, principalmente en la provincia de Santa Cruz de Tenerife−, junto a otros como Tacoronte, Baute o Guanche.

Aunque la mayoría de los genealogistas los hacen descender del propio mencey de Taoro, según el investigador Leopoldo de la Rosa este apellido aparece por primera vez a mediados del siglo xviii, y fue tomado por algunos descendientes de los antiguos menceyes de la isla tras la popularización de la figura de Bencomo en las obras de Fray Alonso de Espinosa y Antonio de Viana.

Quizás el personaje histórico canario más famoso que llevó este apellido fue Cristóbal Bencomo y Rodríguez, presbítero lagunero, confesor del Rey Fernando VII de España y arzobispo titular de Heraclea.

Su papel en la conquista

Era el mencey más poderoso de la isla, siendo considerado un “Primus inter pares”. Fue el caudillo de los bandos de guerra guanches. Murió en combate en Noviembre de 1495.

Santa Cruz de Tenerife

La historia de los guanches, de los primeros pobladores de Canarias, está llena de incógnitas que no siempre son conocidas. Las primeras monedas y transacciones en el Archipiélago tuvieron lugar en las islas durante el siglo XVI después de la conquista de los castellanos. Sin embargo, a pesar de que la construcción del mito en torno a los guanches sugiere que eran personas desplazadas hacia la montaña y dedicadas a la ganadería y la agricultura, lo cierto es que los documentos archivados en el Vaticano demuestran que los primeros pobladores de las islas estuvieron mucho más integrados en los compases de la historia castellana del Archipiélago de lo que se piensa.

  • El papel de Canarias en la rehabilitación médica
  • “El Correíllo La Palma; valiente en la mar”

Así se confirma en Testamentos Guanches, una investigación disponible en formato abierto que ha desarrollado Lorenzo Santana, graduado en Historia del Arte por la Universidad a Distancia en el año 2017 y que publicado por el Instituto de Estudios Canarios.

“Tenemos la idea preconcebida de que los guanches quedaron marginados y no se integraron, pero además de alfabetizarse, entendieron las leyes, la propiedad privada y el dinero“, sostiene Santana, quien añade que “además, hubo interés por el contexto histórico europeo”. Hubo un guanche llamado Juan de Anaga quien “advirtió de que su hijo estaba en la Guerra de Pavía” en su testamento y dejó constancia de su preocupación por su situación.

“¿Hacían testamento los guanches? Pues sí y resulta que en la isla de Tenerife se han conservado documentos”

“Cada vez que me encuentro con un joven investigador les invito a profundizar en los testamentos” ha reconocido Santana en Crónicas Canarias de Hoy Por Hoy Tenerife. “Los documentos de testamento de ahora son muy sosos”. En cambio, los testamentos del siglo XVI son, por lo general, historias de vida: “Los testamentos de entonces enumeran sus devociones, a los que debe y le deben, idas y venida de sus hijos, sus padres y se pasan ratos muy divrtidos leyendo testamentos de la época”.

Uno de los guanches que más repercusión tuvo en la historia del Archipiélago fue Diego Benítez. “Fue interesantísimo”, sugiere Santana. De hecho, fue de las primeras personas que reconoció que el mundo conocido hasta entonces había cambiado. Tanto fue así, que Benítez creó la figura del microcrédito: “prestaba dinero a otros para pagar a obreros y despegregar o poner viñas en funcionamiento“. Sin embargo, no se ha podido comprobar de dónde sacó Benítez la partida inicial de dinero para impulsar el primigenio sistema capitalista.

Otro de los personajes guanches investigados fue Francisco López de Villera, que fue capaz de escribir y redactar el testamento de su esposa. “Era el dueño de una enorme extensión de tierra en la zona de El Tablero -que recibe su nombre desde entonces-, el popular barrio de Santa Cruz de Tenerife. “Era un guanche portentado que llegó a vivir de las rentas que cobraba a la gente que había venido a conquistar las islas”, asegura el investigador de la UNED.

History

00 9000 9000

of the oldest settlements on the island, according to the surviving legends of the descendants of the Guanches and collected by the religious brotherhood of Alonso de Espinosa, Icod is the first settlement in Tenerife founded by the Guanches. According to the surviving legend, the settlement was founded by 60 Guanches who arrived in Tenerife from nowhere. In their own language, they called their settlement “ Alzanxiquian abcanahac xerac “.

Archaeological research has proven that the territory of modern Icod de Los Vinos has been inhabited since the 6th century BC. It is also proved that the founders of the city were engaged in agriculture, they grew wheat, barley and beans. The king ruled over the lands, the last Mensei was called Pelikar.

After the conquest of Tenerife by the Spaniards, a city was founded on the site of the old settlement, it grew rapidly. This was facilitated by a good location, in this area there was enough fresh water and fertile land. The Spaniards gave the name to the city of Icod, over time and thanks to the development of winemaking, de los Vinos was added to it.

In ancient times, grapes and sugar cane were grown in Icod de los Vinos, and surplus products were exported through the port of Garachico.

Also in Icod de los Vinos, the island’s first sugar factory was built. But, gradually, sugar cane was no longer grown in the area, it turned out that the grapes grown on local volcanic soils have a unique taste, the wine from it had a rich bouquet.

On May 2, 1798, a serious fire broke out in Icod de los Vinos, starting in a monastic cell. In 2.5 hours, about 20 buildings completely burned down in the city. The spread of fire was miraculously avoided. The city granary, town hall, prison, shops suffered from the fire.

In 1803 the city was rebuilt according to the design of Antonio Guillermo Rodríguez and Luis Madero.

Now the old part of the city has been declared a cultural heritage site and is protected by the state.

Shopping in Los Cristianos

Beaches

Beaches in Los Cristianos

Wide sandy beaches lined with relaxed eateries and casual bars are what’s in store when you book Los Cristianos last minute holidays.

  • Playa de los Cristianos is the resort’s flagship beach and a beautiful spot for R&R. Lay your towel directly on the sand or hire sunbeds. There’s also volleyball nets if you’re feeling energetic.
  • Located just around the corner from Playa de los Cristianos, Playa de las Vistas is another popular pick. As well as soft sand, its main feature is a space-age fountain which sits on a tiny island halfway down the beach.
  • Known for its beach clubs and bustling promenade, Playa de las Américas is perfect for those after complete convenience. The beach itself is also very attractive thanks to its swathe of golden sand.
  • Palm-fringed Playa del Camison is within walking distance of Los Cristianos. It’s a particularly calm bay, making it ideal for a refreshing dip.
  • For water sports and cafes within throwing distance, make your way to Playa de Troya. The beach is spread across two wide bays between Costa Adeje and Playa de las Américas.

Quiet beaches in Los Cristianos

Those after sunbed-free beaches are in luck. Los Cristianos is located near some of the most peaceful coves in Tenerife.

  • Playa del Palm Mar sits in the next town along from Los Cristianos and is a refreshing alternative to its busier beaches. Unique due to its volcanic pebbles, go there to enjoy sea breezes and brilliant sunsets.
  • Despite its name meaning “the angry beach”, Playa Los Enojadas is an oasis featuring tiny waves and very few people. It’s just before you reach Las Galletas.
  • If you’re heading to Golf del Sur during your holiday, it’s worth popping to Playa de la Tejita for a refreshing swim after your game. The huge black sand beach is off the beaten track in La Tejita and leads on to a nature reserve.
  • While not a brilliant beach to sit on, Playa de los Tarajales’ promenade is a great place to stretch your legs and admire sea views. Find it just beyond Playa de los Cristianos.
  • The first beach you hit after Costa Adeje is Playa de Enramadas. Boasting black volcanic sand the Canary Islands are famous for, it’s a good spot for watching paragliders.

At a glance

Top 5 things to do in Los Cristianos

Family-friendly animal parks and leisurely day trips to far-flung isles are what you can expect on holidays to Los Cristianos.

  • As the departure point for La Gomera ferries, taking a day trip to the second smallest Canary Island is a must. It’s one of the least developed islands and features lush rainforest and pristine beaches.
  • Animal fans will love a visit to Monkey Park! The animal reserve is home to numerous endangered primates which you can get up close to on an interactive tour.
  • Los Cristianos is within minutes of two other major Tenerife resorts. Playa de las Américas is the place to go for nights out, while Costa Adeje is littered with lovely beaches.
  • Siam Park is the area’s best-known attraction. It’s the biggest water park in Europe and packed with exhilarating rides, from Mekong Rapids to the 28 metre Tower of Power slide!
  • If you’re an adrenaline junkie, there’s lots to get your heart pumping on Los Cristianos holidays. Paragliding is a particularly popular activity and will see you leaping off volcanic craters!

Outdoor adventures in Los Cristianos

Not just a destination for sunbathing and swimming, Los Cristianos also boasts numerous attractions for more active travellers.

  • Los Cristianos is a popular place to depart on organised deep sea fishing trips. Things typically caught off the coast include tuna, marlin and snapper.
  • If you’ve always wanted to scuba dive, you couldn’t be better placed in Los Cristianos. The resort has numerous dive centres offering one-off trips and full Padi courses.
  • Holidays to Los Cristianos don’t solely have to be about the sea. Why not drive inland to Teide National Park? The huge reserve is teeming with volcanic craters and hiking trails.
  • For an easier walk a little closer to the resort, head up to the observation deck on Montaña Chayofita. The peak offers up fantastic views all the way to La Gomera.
  • Keen golfer? While Los Cristianos doesn’t have it’s own club, there are several nearby. Get a round in at Golf Las Américas or travel down the coast to Golf del Sur where there’s a choice of clubs.

Food & Drink

Food in Los Cristianos

Tasty traditional cuisine by the sea or fancy food markets? All this, and more, is what you can expect eating out in Los Cristianos.

  • Los Cristianos’ beachfront promenade is the place to be at nightfall. It’s lined with a huge choice of restaurants where you can tuck into fresh seafood, from whole sea bream to tasty paella.
  • If you can’t make your mind up about what to eat, head to Mercado La Pepa. The sleek indoor food market sits next door to Passarela Oasis Shopping Center and is brimming with stalls selling Spanish and international cuisine.
  • The Arona region Los Cristianos sits within is one of several wine-growing areas in Tenerife. Enjoy a tasting at a local bodega (wine cellar) in the countryside or order up a bottle with dinner.
  • Those keen to tuck into typical Canarian cuisine will have ample opportunities. Much-loved Restaurante El Cine has been serving up delicious traditional food for over three decades. Find it right next to Playa de los Cristianos.
  • When it comes to global gastronomy, Los Cristianos doesn’t disappoint. Have a break from tapas and tuck into curries, pasta, barbecue or even a full English breakfast!

Traditional food and drink in Los Cristianos

As a town with such a good choice of local restaurants, you’ll have no reason not to sample traditional Canarian cuisine in Los Cristianos.

  • Not just known for producing wine, Tenerife also has a long history of distilling rum. Ron miel (honey rum) is the best-known variety which you’ll be able to taste at any bar in Los Cristianos.
  • Los Cristianos is a particularly brilliant place to sample local fish dishes. Salted cod is very traditional and often added to stews, while grouper and parrot fish are grilled and served whole.
  • Roast potatoes your guilty pleasure? You’ll love Papas Arrugudas. Made by boiling and roasting potatoes with their skins still on, it’s then served with mojo (bell pepper) sauce.
  • If you make it over to La Gomera, you might get a chance to try Almogrote. It’s a creamy paste made from local cheese, tomatoes, olive oil and paprika that’s typically eaten on toast.
  • A cross between crème caramel and cheesecake, Quesillo is one of the most delicious Canarian desserts. Try it topped with a large spoonful of fresh cream.

Holiday types

Los Cristianos family holidays

Travelling with teens or tots? You’ll find no shortage of things to keep them busy on Los Cristianos breaks.

  • Los Cristianos is well-placed for day trips to aqua parks and nature reserves. Siam Park and Aqualand are ideal for water slides and wave pools. You could also visit Jungle Park – a nature park home to over 500 fascinating creatures!
  • The sea around Tenerife is teeming with marine life. Why not treat the kids to a whale and dolphin watching trip? You’re almost guaranteed to spot bottlenose dolphins.
  • Children of all ages will love riding the cable car up Mount Teide. The peak sits at the heart of Teide National Park and is actually the highest point in Spain!
  • Whether you want somewhere with a huge swimming pool or a great kids’ club, you’ll have a wide choice of amazing family-friendly hotels to pick between on your all-inclusive Los Cristianos holiday.
  • Parasailing, pedalos and paddle boarding are just some of the water sports you can enjoy on family getaways in Los Cristianos.

Couples holidays in Los Cristianos

If you’re holidaying with your other half in Los Cristianos, spend your days snorkelling, soaking up sunsets or indulging in spa treatments.

  • There’s numerous water sports activities perfect for couples in Los Cristianos. Why not go kayaking with dolphins or head to El Puertito to snorkel alongside sea turtles?
  • Few things are more romantic than watching the sunset over the ocean! Los Cristianos’ west facing position makes it a prime place for this. Stroll along the Playa de las Vistas promenade at dusk or enjoy sundowners at a beach club on Playa de Troya.
  • Fancy a couples’ massage? Pairs in need of some pampering will find numerous luxury hotels and independent spas near Los Cristianos. There’s even a spa where you can bathe in beer!
  • Evenings on Los Cristianos holidays can be as laid back or lively as you like. Enjoy a date night in a casual wine bar or head into Playa de las Américas for late night dancing at a mega club.
  • Couples after adventure will want to head for Roque del Conde. The volcanic gorge sits just above Costa Adeje and is a hiker’s dream. Pull on some sturdy shoes and trek past giant cacti to its lofty viewpoint.

Where does this data come from?

Weather data for Santa Cruz de Tenerife was collected from the MERRA-2 project from NASA, which used a climate model combined with historical data from weather stations around the world to estimate what the conditions were like for every point on the Earth.

For all data based on historical data, we’ve averaged the data from the past 11 years (2010-2020). For example, for the hourly temperature at 10am, we’ve looked at the temperature at 10am on every day in April (e.g., April 1, April 2, etc. in 2010, 2011, etc.) and took the arithmetic mean. We did not smooth the data, so for example, our daily temperature line will have some randomness due to the fact that weather is random in the first place.

Sea temperature

April is a great month to visit Tenerife. The temperature is increasing both by day and night and the sea is warm enough to swim in. Wind can sometimes whip up off the Atlantic, so pack a hoodie, just in case. We’ve looked at the most up-to-date weather data for Tenerife, covering the last 12 years up to 2022, plus we’ve asked our team of travel bloggers for their first-hand experiences in order to answer the most frequently asked questions about Tenerife weather in April.

What’s the temperature like in Tenerife during April?

The temperature is extremely stable in April with average highs of 20℃ and lows just 3℃ lower at 18℃. The UV index will be moderate at this time of year, so not something to worry about for the average person. However, if you’re going to be outside for long periods it’s worth wearing a broad spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen and UV-blocking sunglasses. Remember that bright surfaces, such as water and sand increase UV exposure.

Does it rain in Tenerife during April?

April is typically the wettest month in Tenerife. On average, there will be 4 rainy days during the month, amounting to 3.1mm in total. That’s almost nothing at all, therefore rain isn’t something we think you need to consider. You’re not likely to see a thunderstorm during your trip.

How warm is the sea in Tenerife during April?

The water around Tenerife is around 20℃ during April. It will feel a little on the cool when first entering, but you’ll warm up quickly. Most kids will have no problem with this temperature, but those who feel the cold are unlikely to want to swim.

Auf dem Berg selbst ist es zu jeder Jahreszeit um einige Grad kühler als auf den niedrigen Lagen. Im Winter bildet sich hier sogar Schnee. Der Nordosten Teneriffas ist als der grüne Teil der Insel bekannt. Durch den stetigen Niederschlag und die hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit ist die Vegetation verblüffend. Ganzjährig könnt ihr hier die üppige Pflanzenvielfalt betrachten. Der Niederschlag in Nordteneriffa ist zwar stärker als im Süden, jedoch dürft ihr euch keinen Dauerregen vorstellen. In den Sommermonaten fällt in der Regel gar kein Regen. In den Wintermonaten regnet es an fünf bis sieben Tagen pro Monat. Die Temperaturen bleiben dennoch warm. Im kältesten Monat Januar erwarten euch am Tag rund 20 Grad Celsius. Im wärmsten Monat August sind es in Santa Cruz de Tenerife im Nordosten der Insel durchschnittlich 29 Grad Celsius. Die folgende Klimatabelle gibt euch weitere Auskunft zu den Klimawerten, die euch im Teneriffa Urlaub erwarten. Darunter findet ihr Infos zum Wetter auf Teneriffa, im Norden und im Süden.

Klimatabelle Teneriffa (Santa Cruz de Tenerife)

Wie ist das Wetter auf Teneriffa?

 

Das Wetter auf Teneriffa ist ganzjährig mild. Die Höchstwerte im Sommer liegen bei 30 Grad Celsius und im Winter bei über 20 Grad Celsius. Niederschläge sind im Sommer auf der gesamten Insel unwahrscheinlich. Höchstens auf dem Pico del Teide kann es abends und nachts zu Niederschlägen kommen. An den Küsten ist es trocken und warm. Im Frühling und Herbst ist es auf Teneriffa warm und es fällt wenig Niederschlag. Herrschen im Frühling Temperaturen zwischen 22 und 26 Grad Celsius, ist es im Herbst bei Werten zwischen 27 und 28 Grad Celsius noch sommerlich warm. Niederschlag gibt es sowohl im Frühjahr als auch im Herbst an durchschnittlich drei Tagen pro Monat. Im Winter ist das Wetter weiterhin warm bei Tageswerten zwischen 20 und 21 Grad Celsius. Durchschnittlich regnet es an sechs Tagen pro Monat. Ein Unterschied im Wetter auf Teneriffa zeichnet sich zwischen Nord und Süd ab. Deshalb beschreibe ich euch das Teneriffa Wetter im Folgenden je nach Himmelsrichtung.

 

 

Das Wetter in Teneriffa Nord

Das Wetter in Teneriffa Nord ist das ganze Jahr über mild mit wenigen Niederschlägen in der Winterzeit. Im Sommer zwischen Juni und September regnet es in der Regel nicht. Die Sonne scheint bis zu elf Stunden am Tag und beschert Temperaturen jenseits der 25 Grad Celsius. In Teneriffa Nord befinden sich beliebte Urlaubsregionen wie die Hauptstadt Santa Cruz de Tenerife oder das touristische Zentrum der Inselnordküste Puerto de la Cruz. Für einen Badeurlaub ist das Wetter in Teneriffa Nord besonders zwischen April und Oktober gut geeignet. Aktivurlaubern, die die grüne Vegetation des Nordens entdecken möchten, empfehle ich die Frühjahrs- und Herbstmonate, da es in dieser Zeit nicht allzu heiß ist. Besonders im Frühling geht das Herz aller Botaniker auf, wenn die Pflanzenwelt farbenfroh blüht und einen hauchzarten Duft versprüht.

 

Das Wetter in Teneriffa Süd

Das Wetter in Teneriffa Süd ist durchschnittlich trockener als in Teneriffa Nord. Der Pico del Teide im Zentrum Teneriffas bildet eine Schneide zwischen Nord und Süd. Durch seine Höhe schützt er den Süden vor den Passatwinden aus dem Norden. So kommt es im Süden kaum zu Niederschlägen. Das Wetter ist beständig warm und trocken. In den Wintermonaten November bis Februar regnet es in Arona an durchschnittlich nur drei Tagen pro Monat. Zwischen Mai und September ist die Regenwahrscheinlichkeit gleich Null. Somit erwarten euch im Sommer bis zu zehn Sonnenstunden pro Tag mit Temperaturen entlang der 30 Grad Celsius in Teneriffa Süd. Perfekte Bedingungen für einen Badeurlaub. Möchtet ihr Trekking-Touren auf dem Pico del Teide machen oder auf der Insel wandern, eignen sich die Zwischenmonate im Frühling und Herbst besser dafür. Hier ist es nicht allzu heiß wie im Sommer und ihr kommt auf euren Wanderungen nicht ins Schwitzen.

 

 

Mein Fazit zur besten Reisezeit für Teneriffa

Teneriffa ist ein ganzjährig beliebtes Reiseziel. Je nach Vorlieben und Unternehmungen im Urlaub, eignen sich andere Monate als beste Reisezeit für Teneriffa. Insgesamt können als beste Teneriffa Reisezeit die Monate April bis Oktober genannt werden. In der Sommerzeit ist das Wetter trocken und warm und es gibt sowohl in Teneriffa Nord als auch in Teneriffa Süd keine Niederschläge. Für Trekking-Touren und Wanderungen in der Natur sind der Frühling und der Herbst am besten geeignet. Möchtet ihr auf der Skipiste des Pico del Teide Skifahren, solltet ihr in den Wintermonaten Dezember bis Februar nach Teneriffa. Besonders im Dezember und im Januar könnt ihr hier mit Schnneegarantie rechnen. Für einen Badeurlaub sind die Sommermonate Juni, Juli und August die beliebtesten auf Teneriffa. Deshalb gibt es viel Tourismus und die Hotelpreise steigen in die Höhe. Möchtet ihr günstiger reisen, bietet sich vor allem der Herbst sehr gut für einen Badeurlaub auf Teneriffa an. Im September, wenn die Sommerferien in nahezu allen europäischen Ländern zu Ende gehen, sinkt auch der Tourismus auf Teneriffa und somit die Hotelpreise. Das Wetter auf Teneriffa ist im Herbst jedoch weiterhin sommerlich warm bei tollen Badetemperaturen entlang der 30 Grad Celsius. Sonnenanbeter, die Anfang des Jahres bereits genug vom kalten Winter hatten und sich nach Sonne sehnen, sollten im Frühling nach Teneriffa. Im April herrschen dort schon Temperaturen bis zu 26 Grad Celsius. Bei einer Wassertemperatur von 18 Grad Celsius ist sogar das Schwimmen im Atlantik möglich. Somit steht einem Badeurlaub gekoppelt mit einem Wanderurlaub im Frühling steht nichts im Weg.

Tenerife è l’isola più grande delle Isole Canarie e si trova nell’Oceano Atlantico. L’isola vulcanica conta circa 910.000 abitanti, la capitale è Santa Cruz de Tenerife, nel nord-est dell’isola.

La lingua ufficiale è lo spagnolo, la valuta ufficiale è l’Euro. Tenerife ha una superficie di oltre 2.000 chilometri quadrati ed è divisa in tre regioni.

La regione metropolitana intorno alla capitale Santa Cruz è il centro economico dell’isola, con un grande porto e la città vecchia di La Laguna, dichiarata Patrimonio dell’Umanità.

Il sud dell’isola è la regione più importante per il turismo, Los Christanos e Playa de las Américas sono i centri turistici.

Clima a Tenerife

Il clima di Tenerife è molto piacevole tutto l’anno, non a caso si parla dell’”isola dell’eterna primavera”. Tuttavia, vi sono differenze regionali dovute all’influenza dell’aliseo nordorientale. A nord di Tenerife la costa si trova di fronte al vento, mentre il sud è al riparo dal vento.

Non è quindi raro che il sole splende da un lato dell’isola, mentre l’altra metà è coperta di nuvole. Ma in generale Tenerife è considerata molto soleggiata, secca e piacevole con un clima tropicale oceanico.

In estate fa caldo con temperature diurne tra i 26 e i 29 gradi, anche in inverno la soglia dei 20 gradi viene di solito superata durante il giorno. Di notte, le temperature oscillano tra i 16 e i 21 gradi Celsius durante tutto l’anno. L’Oceano Atlantico ha una piacevole temperatura dell’acqua di 20-23 gradi (settembre) ogni anno da inizio giugno a metà dicembre.

Climate change threatens the survival of urban trees around the world

Search

Date:

Share post:

It will come as no surprise to anyone who has walked from a hot pavement to a shady park that trees (and bushes) have a great cooling effect on cities, along with many other benefits. They are more than just umbrellas. The water that they absorb from the soil through their roots and evaporates through their leaves acts as a natural air conditioner.

The United Nations predicts that the world population will reach 8. 51 billion people in 2030, and currently more than half of the planet’s population, some 4.4 billion people, live in urban settings. As climate change further warms cities, trees will become more important than ever.

But how will trees cope with conditions that exceed their natural limits of tolerance?

In a study published today in Nature Climate Changea team of scientists from Australia and France have examined the impacts of projected changes in temperature and precipitation over the coming decades on 3,129 tree species in 164 cities in 78 countries.

If no action is taken, two-thirds of the trees and shrubs in cities around the world will be at risk by 2050, with serious implications for climate action and quality of life in urban settings.

Our results sound bleak, but read on. We’ve also identified steps we can take to help urban trees survive, thrive, and continue to cool the environment.

Jana Dielenberg

The benefits of urban nature

Urban trees play a fundamental role in maintaining the habitability of cities. By cooling their surroundings, they reduce our electricity consumption for air conditioning, while absorbing carbon dioxide, purifying the air, reducing noise and providing a habitat for wildlife. In addition, they support much of the Earth’s biodiversity.

Being around them also improves our mental health and well-being. Trees can help us in times of psychological stress, such as a pandemic.

Because of these wonderful benefits, increasing the number of trees and shrubs in cities, so-called urban forests, is a key climate change adaptation and sustainability strategy used around the world.

Although urban forests are vital to improving the quality of life in cities, until now there has been little information available on whether current climatic conditions exceed what they can withstand, or how these conditions compare with projected changes in temperature and precipitation. (drought, rain and snow) around the world.

Trees in cemeteries like the Père Lachaise in Paris help to cool down the surrounding areas.
Akvile Jureviciute-Lenoir

More than 1,000 endangered tree species

We found that, globally, common species of plum, oak, maple, poplar, elm, pine, lime, wattle, eucalyptus and chestnut are among the more than a thousand species that have been flagged as being at risk from climate change in the most cities.

In fact, about half of the species that form urban forests are already experiencing climatic conditions that exceed their natural tolerance limits to high temperatures or lack of water and could affect their health and performance.

The number of species affected and the scale of the impact will increase markedly by 2050 as temperatures rise. This jeopardizes the health and longevity of urban forests and the benefits they provide to society.

Climatic conditions that exceed the natural tolerance of the species can result in diseased trees with limited growth and, finally, cause their death. This reduces its cooling effect. During drought or heat stress, trees may stop releasing water vapor or shed their leaves to reduce tissue damage. This means that this natural air conditioning system is very likely to stop working when we need it most.

Impacts in Spain

In Spain, reduced rainfall will be the most common stress for urban trees, but rising temperatures will also be an important factor, especially in Valencia.

Species potentially at risk include aspen, elm, pine, northern white cedar, willow, European fir and silver birch.

On average, the proportion of urban tree species that could be at risk from high temperatures in Spanish cities by 2050 is very high: 46% in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, 98% in Valencia and 100% in Barcelona.

However, the adverse effects of climate change can be lessened with access to water and by promoting favorable microclimatic conditions. Additionally, urban trees may exhibit plasticity in traits that determine their survival, growth, and environmental tolerance, which may help them adapt to local environmental conditions.

The authors explain their conclusions and the implications for trees and shrubs planted in cities.

What can we do?

Our study is important globally because it helps the governments of 164 cities to manage and care for their urban forests by identifying species that may be at risk and need to be monitored and species that are climate resilient, useful for future planting.

In addition, people can take a number of simple steps to help urban forests survive and continue to provide their many benefits to citizens:

  1. Help more rain seep into the ground: Reduced rainfall and soil moisture is a big threat to many species, so don’t waste water down the drain. Consider diverting it to a rain garden or a rainwater tank that feeds the garden. This also helps local rivers or streams.

  2. Plant even more trees and shrubs – they help keep city temperatures comfortable for them and for us. You can ask your local council or a horticulturist for advice on suitable weather resistant species for your area.

  3. Leave trees and shrubs in their place: think twice before cutting down existing ones, they bring you more benefits than you think.

    Other hotels in Las Americas

    So what else, besides roasting yourself in the sun and swimming in the ocean, is there anything else to do when you come to relax on the beaches of Tenerife?

    Lovers of outdoor activities can devote time to surfing, in the easternmost part of Las Americas, where the area with cafes and sunbeds ends, and the beach continues, you can learn to ride, and you can do it all year round.

    This is where the waves happen, and you can find a board and an instructor to help you right on the shore. I don’t quote prices for rent and training, they are, of course, not as pleasant as in Bali, but quite adequate. One of our friends even went through a week of training there, the delight was over the edge.

    Also, every morning we ran along the beach. Running barefoot on the dense wet sand is a real pleasure, unlike in India, there are no morning seroons on the beach here 🙂 However, it was nice to run in the Philippines and Thailand.

      The most attractive beach in this resort is a quiet privileged beach with expensive 5 * hotels – El Duque, located at the end of Adeje. Its length is 500 m, and for its beauty, safety and cleanliness, the beach was awarded the Blue Flag sign, the sea here is incredibly turquoise. There are many high-end shops and expensive restaurants.

      For a wedding photo shoot, this is heaven! Near the beach there is a city promenade, with a couple of dozen shops, cafes and bars.

      And in the port of Los Cristianos there is a small beach of the same name – Playa de Los Cristianos with fine sand. Despite the fact that this is a port, tourists also relax and sunbathe here, there are practically no waves here, and all the necessary infrastructure is present, there are water activities, a volleyball court and restaurants serving freshly caught catch!

      Costa del Silencio and Las Galietas

      in the middle of Las Americas and the Southern Airport, which is a quiet “pension” Costa Vel Silensio (COSTA) in translation means – “Coast of Silence”, here is inexpensive housing. Elderly tourists and families with children like to relax on the beaches of the tourist villages Ten Bel and Las Galletas. The ocean here is very clean, with clear water, which contributes to excellent diving. Among other entertainments, there is a stable, karting and golf courses, several bars, clubs and restaurants.

      The pearl of the resort – Costa del Silencio, bay Amarilla Bay (Amarilla Bay) or “Beach at the Yellow Mountain” ( Montana Amarilla ), untouched natural unique landscape and stunning crystal clear water in the ocean. This place can be called a beach with a stretch – there are few stones among the rocks, but the place is very beautiful.

      Also 15 km from Las Americas there is a small resort Las Galletas (Playa de Las Galletas) , located side by side with the fishing town and not far from the Costa del Silencio. The local beach is with gray volcanic sand, its length is about 600 m, there is all the infrastructure. But staying in this area makes sense if diving is the main thing for you, otherwise it will be boring! There are a lot of schools and centers here, you can get a Padi certificate, the conditions for studying here are the most suitable, but the underwater world is unlikely to disappoint. On the other hand, you can always go hang out in the noisy and lively Las Americas in the evening!

The hotel was built luxurious, the public resting in such places claims to have an excellent beach, so the rocky coast was covered with sand, a breakwater was built, now this wonderful lagoon bay is completely closed from the waves.

      La Arena (Playa de La Arena) . Spectacular cliffs and the ocean will not leave indifferent fans of beach photo shoots, well, we could not resist 🙂 This beach, by the way, also has a “Blue Flag”.

      The beach is very pleasant and beautiful, despite the fact that it is quite small, its length is only 120 m, but at the same time there is everything you need – rent of sun loungers, changing rooms, restaurants, rental of catamarans.

      In the sun, the sand gets very hot and becomes burning, barefoot you can only hop around, but the salvation is wet sand, although in this case it will cover with a wave every couple of minutes 🙂

      There are many wild black sand beaches in the east of Las Americas, they are not very crowded, some are completely deserted, but very beautiful. Many are located at the foot of the cliffs, which is why it is not so easy to get to them without personal transport.

      There are 2 more beaches in the vicinity, but they are quite small, less than 100 m long, one in the town of Puerto de Santiago, right in the water area port – Chica beach (Playa Chica), and the second on the outskirts of the city at the foot of the cliffs in Los Gigantes – Los Guyos (Playa de los Guios).

      Puerto de la Cruz – black beaches

      During our trip around the island of Tenerife by car, one of the destinations for us was the black beaches in the north of the island.

      The ocean in these parts is cold, in comparison with the southwestern coast, the fact is that the north is open to all winds, from which the south of the island is protected by a mountain range and a volcano.

      Puerto de la Cruz is the largest resort in the north of the island, in the vicinity of which, and in the city itself, too, there are wonderful black beaches. The beaches are very beautiful, but in winter, unfortunately, they are completely inaccessible, the water is cold, and sometimes the waves are so strong that it becomes dangerous to enter the water. Surfing is common on such beaches, although only pros ride in these conditions.

      Volcanic beaches are said to be good for health, I would like to believe it.

      One of the most picturesque beaches is Playa Jardin beach , it gathers especially many people during the period of raging waves, many people want to capture such a raging natural element in the photo 🙂

      Puerto de la Cruz is a fishing town inhabited by indigenous people, and at the same time, it is a resort, we also stayed there for the night.

      The city is really pleasant, and unlike the areas of Las Americas and Los Cristianos, here you can meet not only vacationers, but also the local population, feel the atmosphere of the life of “canarchans”. In the evenings, live concerts are held here on the central square, our hotel was in the very center, the balcony overlooked just this square, so the evening turned out to be fun. In the morning we walked along the embankment, looked at the market, had breakfast and hit the road.

    Santa Cruz, the capital of Tenerife island

    Las Teresitas and Antequera beaches, Santa Cruz

    Not reaching the capital city of Santa Cruz, at the foot of the Anaga mountain range, near the village of San Andres, we found a very beautiful Las Teresitas beach ( Playa de Las Teresitas) , whose photographs we later saw on postcards and calendars in souvenir shops. As it turned out later, the amazing fine golden sand was specially brought here from the Sahara.

    The infrastructure for tourists is at its best here, so there are always a lot of vacationers on the beach, but it is huge, there is enough space for everyone!

    Another hidden behind a mountain range beach – Antequera (Playa de Antequera) , but this time with black natural sand, there is practically no infrastructure, parking is spontaneous, but there are a lot of vacationers, mostly metropolitan residents.

    Santa Cruz is the capital,

    with all the ensuing consequences, for tourists it is perhaps only attractive for its huge shopping malls and the annual February large-scale and very colorful carnival. One of these annual February carnivals I found once in Barcelona, ​​but in November in the capital of the island you can only walk around the city.

    There is a futuristic theater building (Auditorio de Tenerife Adán Martín), which is called the younger brother of the famous Sydney Opera House.

    And also an unusual breakwater with stones on which portraits of celebrities are painted (it is located right behind the concert hall).

    For the night we stopped at the couchsurfer, it turned out to be honey. my brother, who works at a local hospital, I remember the evening was very informative, it’s a pity that we didn’t take notes then, otherwise we would have told you something interesting from the life of the Canarians.

    Then we went to the east and south coast, in search of wild nudist beaches and found them 🙂

    El Medano, La Tejita, La Pelada beaches very light or light gray sand (due to a mixture of volcanic and light) is actually of artificial origin, the exception is

    beaches in El Medano ( Playa de El Medano) , where the sand was brought by the wind from the Sahara desert, is it really so we don’t know, but the legend is beautiful, however, like the beaches themselves, we were convinced of this personally 🙂 In addition, there is all the necessary infrastructure here – cafes, changing rooms, toilets, sun loungers and umbrellas.

    There are several beaches in El Medano.

    One – in the city, on the western side of the Montana Roja volcano – a rather picturesque place with low red dunes.

    Mostly windsurfers and kitesurfers from all over Europe gather here, thanks to the good wind the gurney is amazing here, there are schools for beginners, equipment rentals.

    On the opposite side of the mountain is the second windy La Tejita beach ( Playa de La Tejita) , quite large (~ 1 km), at its very tip, behind a stone partition there is a 50-meter nudist beach, there is all the infrastructure when we were there, very much a lot of people rested, perhaps due to the fact that this is the most accessible nudist beach located side by side with the usual one.

    Nudist Wild Beach Diego Hernandez

    Small Nudist Wild Playa Diego Hernandez Beach with light gray volcanic sand, closest to Las Americas, is located in a cozy bay near the village of La Caleta (La Caleta).

    For us it was the best beach in Tenerife, it is located under steep cliffs and consists of two small beaches separated by a rocky ledge that can be bypassed along the coast, different paths lead to both beaches from above, once on one, you can completely and not to know about the existence of the other.

    We wandered around a little at first, didn’t find the trail, trying to drive straight off-road over the rocks. The attempt failed, the car stalled, we had to return, but we had plenty of hugs with cacti.

    And then somehow accidentally came to the beginning of the trail, it turns out you need to go then to the golf club (see on the map), it is like a landmark, located directly above the bay, and from there, leaving the car on the side of the road at the entrance to the field for golf, go down to the beach through the mountains and rocks along a narrow path leading to the very shore.

    The beach is far from the road, there is no infrastructure, besides us there were no more than 6-8 people on the beach, this is the beauty – the absence of noise, garbage, a complete natural idyll.

    The beach is nudist and insanely beautiful, almost deserted.

    We spent one of the days here, and this is the place where you definitely want to come again. Returning to the car along another path in the middle of the cliff, we noticed a tent on a ledge, a great idea, I even wanted to come back here one day and live like this for a couple of days, away from civilization, in the bosom of nature among the rocks on the ocean.

    This volcano, together with the area around it, is the most visited natural park in Spain and is called the National Park “Las Canadas del Teide” (Las Canadas del Teide), in addition, it is the highest mountain in Spain and thanks to it, Tenerife is considered the highest island in the Atlantic Ocean. Previously, the Teide volcano was much higher, about 5000 m, but after a strong eruption at the beginning of the 18th century, the top of the volcano collapsed to 3718 m. cable car, you will have to pay for the funicular (Teide Cable Car), otherwise you won’t climb to the top – 27 € (works from 9:00 to 16:00).

    Tickets can be bought online (here), this will save time in line, and if you buy in advance, you can buy at any time, because there are peak hours, and the number of people at the top is strictly limited.

    The funicular takes 10 minutes to reach a height of 3555 m, where 163 meters remain to the top of the volcano. By the way, you can spend no more than an hour on the top platform, but believe me, this time is enough 🙂 Before the funicular was built, it took 29 hours to climb to the tophours.

    At the top you can walk along the veil of clouds. We spent the prescribed hour there, a pleasant place not only for its views, but also for its coolness.

    In general, the Teide volcano is formed by several volcanoes, which are continuations of the Teide peak in the east and west. On the western slope is the Pico Viejo volcano (3134 m), on the eastern slope is Montaña Blanca (2750 m). And the peak of Teide itself is in the center of the giant Las Cañadas caldera, a collapsed crater with a diameter of 17 km, and its perimeter is as much as 45 km!

    Free access to the crater is closed, this is explained by the fact that numerous tourists are gradually sorting out the volcano for souvenirs, which threatens to decrease in height (this pebble is not from the top, don’t worry, we didn’t take it home).

    To go up to the vent, you need to get permission in advance for a specific date, everything is done quite simply through a special form on the official website of the park, after which you need to arrive at the park early in the morning on the appointed day, where you will be met by a guide, and you will be together go trekking with him, without permission and a guide, the passage is closed.

    It is better to submit an application in advance (confirmation comes immediately, but the date in the “permit” can be as much as a week later, because there is a limited visit to the peak per day, and very often it is completely closed due to weather conditions, and those who wish are always there is). We did not bother to get a “permit” in advance, as a result, we were content with an exciting ascent on the cable car and a breathtaking view from the upper viewing points.

    And here is the link for obtaining permission: www.reservasparquesnacionales.es

    In addition to the volcano itself, you can visit the observatory in the park and watch the stars.

    Even at the entrance to the park, from numerous viewing platforms, and just from the road,

    on the Las Canadas plateau, where very rare plants are found,

    amazing landscapes open up.

    Landscapes really look like something unearthly – either to the Moon or Mars,

    , by the way, episodes for Star Wars were filmed here.

    Los Roques de Garcia are amazing cliffs of bizarre shape.

    This rock (with a small base and a wide top) is Tenerife’s “signature” landscape, images of which are full of all guidebooks and postcards. She was even depicted on one of the bills when Spain had its own money – for 1000 pesetas.

    In the rocky areas of Tenerife, including the Teide Landscape Park, there are cacti, which, by the way, were brought from Mexico at one time, and subsequently settled down well throughout the island. Agave trees, fig palms and huge rubber trees can also be seen on the island.

    Sometimes, due to bad weather conditions, the volcano and the entire territory of the caldera are blocked, so that you can’t even drive up to the foot, not to mention the possibility of climbing the funicular, but the volcano has not been active for a very long time, so in this regard, you can not worry.

    The easiest way to get to the Teide Park is by renting a car, you need the TF-21 highway.

    If you go by public transport, then from the northern part of the island (departure point: Puerto de La Curuz) you can take bus number 348, and from the south – to number 342 (departure point: Las Americas).

    Entertainment and attractions in Tenerife

    If the first main attraction of Tenerife is the Teide volcano, then you can observe cultural traditions in the towns – there are churches, towers, squares with statues. At least for a couple of hours in Puerto de La Cruz and Santa Cruz, it’s definitely worth visiting!

    And if you can’t imagine a beach holiday on a tropical island without some popular entertainment, then Tenerife has it all, pay attention to the following objects.

    Loro Parrot Parrot

    Loro Parque is Tenerife’s most visited amusement park, it’s the park with the world’s largest collection of parrots, but parrots are far from the most interesting thing in this park. Various shows are held in the park, in one day you can visit a variety of venues and see killer whale shows, parrot and dolphin shows, as well as see a thousand varieties of orchids and watch the life of sea lions and penguins.

    On the territory of Loro Park there is the largest penguinarium on earth – “Penguin Planet”, as well as a glass tunnel with sharks. There is also a botanical garden, a nursery with wild animals and a Thai village – the largest Thai-style building outside of Thailand.

    Diving/Snorkeling/Fishing

    Boat trips to the natural habitat of whales and dolphins, as well as fishing in the ocean are popular in Tenerife.

    You can both snorkel and dive, but the underwater world near the shore is not so rich, we did not dive from a boat, but tourist booklets talk about the indescribable beauties of the ocean floor. Due to the cold Canarian currents, there are practically no coral reefs in the ocean, but at the same time, diving here is attractive due to the underwater volcanic landscape.

    The best dive sites are at the southernmost tip of the island (Las Galletas). Another interesting place is “Octopus Cove” near Los Gigantes, it is a beautiful bay, 12-15 m deep with a reef covered with sponges and corals. Dive centers on the island organize tours and excursions to all these places.

    Banana plantations can be found in different parts of Tenerife,

    The largest are in the north, in the Orotava valley. Canarian bananas are insanely delicious, sweet.

    Canarian cuisine

    Canarian cuisine is quite diverse, gourmets and connoisseurs of both meat delicacies and fresh fish and seafood dishes, as well as all kinds of soups and stews, will like local dishes. The most popular fish are vieja and perch.

    As a side dish they offer an unusual shriveled small potatoes in their skins, called papas arrugadas (papas arrugadas), the trick is that they boil the potatoes in very salty water until the water has completely evaporated so that the salt crystals settle on the peel.

    The Spanish dish paella is also popular here – rice with seafood, meat or chicken, and vegetables, and the portions are very large. After some dinners, I even wanted to lie down.

    Alas, I almost didn’t take pictures of the food, but believe me, it was very tasty, and that’s the main thing!

    Bienmesabe, a traditional dessert, is a yolk cream with almonds and cinnamon, somewhat reminiscent of pudding.

    For us, lovers of tropical fruits, Tenerife turned out to be a paradise, here we ate papaya, anona, mango, guava, carambola, red dragon fruit and even cactus fruits 🙂

    We dined most often on the coast, lunch from €7-9. In the evening we went to restaurants with a buffet from € 12-15 or bought groceries and prepared light salads at home, dined on the balcony by candlelight 🙂 And also bought all kinds of Spanish snacks – anchovies, olives, delicious jams from tomatoes, cacti, ginger and oranges with peel and, of course, moldy cheeses.

    In the resort towns there are food supermarkets, and in the Kurp and fishing towns there are always markets, where you won’t leave empty-handed!

    Tenerife Hotels

    In Las Americas we stayed in the following hotels: spacious, in both places we had a living room with a fully equipped kitchen, a sofa, a table, and other furniture, a separate bedroom and a balcony with a table, as well as a pool with sun loungers. I was pleased with the adequate price, since the apartments are not located on the very shore, you need to walk from 10 to 15 minutes to the sea.

    But to visit the central, northern and eastern parts of Tenerife, your own car is, of course, preferable to public transport, despite the fact that the network of public buses is well developed throughout the island of Tenerife.

    You can choose the desired route, see current prices, schedules and travel time on the official website: http://www.titsa.com

    From the southern airport to the nearest resort areas (in particular, Las Americas and Costa Adeje) you can take a taxi, or for € 2-3 on a direct bus, several are suitable at once. At stops at the airport, all directions of buses are signed, so it’s quite difficult to get lost or go the other way. The shuttle can also be reached from the northern airport, but most airlines, including Ryanair, fly to the southern one.

    We booked a car back in St. Petersburg, but walking along the streets of Las Americas, we came across an advertisement for small yellow Citroen beetles, according to which they were the cheapest cars on the island, yes, and besides, they included full insurance.

    Therefore, we refused our reservation, since there were still two of us, and we decided that we didn’t need a big car at all, the suitcase fit perfectly in the trunk, and an inflated swimming mattress lay all the time in the back seat (not crazy I’ll add why we bought it on the very first day, because both seem to be excellent swimmers, but apparently I sometimes wanted to hang out in the sea)). In a few days we circled the whole island and returned to Las Americas.

    If you prefer to book a car in advance, we recommend doing it here.

    Shopping in Tenerife

    Let me tell you a little about shopping – the Canary Islands have the status of a free economic zone, as a result of which taxes are very low compared to continental Europe, and we also got to the Christmas sales, which is not might not be happy. The largest shopping malls are located in the capital of the island, Santa Cruz, but resort towns also have quite a good selection of shops.

    So, while walking along the coast in Las Americas, by chance we found a store with local production of clothes, from a young designer, we left with full packages.

    How to get to Tenerife

    There may be several options, I just picked the flights that were convenient for us on the skyscanner, playing with dates, number of connections and even the place of departure. We flew by low-cost from Finland, now these flights are no longer available, so I won’t write about them.

    If there are no restrictions in the budget, then fly by direct flight from Moscow, such is performed, for example, by Aeroflot, 7 hours on the way, you can pick up a ticket here.

    I did not find direct flights from St. Petersburg, but they are from Helsinki and Tallinn, where you can get quite budget.

    Well, or you can play around with dates and connections, and then you will be able to find the right flight at a particularly good price.

    In conclusion

    For 10 days on the island, owning a rented car, even with a strong desire to visit all the beaches, it is quite difficult to do this, there are too many of them, I described only those that we ourselves visited, where we sunbathed , swimming, having picnics or seeing off the sun before sunset. On some beaches, we were only passing through, dropped in literally for 10-15 minutes, on some we spent half a day or more.

    Probably, at other times of the year, the island would not have made such a pleasant impression, and given that we escaped from the gloomy snowy and rainy St. Petersburg for 10 days in a sunny summer with a warm ocean and beautiful beaches, delicious Spanish cuisine, and prices below average, European as for transport, housing, food and other entertainment, and even with a mega-cheap flight, Tenerife left the best memories, we were happy.

    And now, see all the beaches of Tenerife and other attractions of the island on the map!

    The best beaches in Tenerife, beach holidays on the island, photos, reviews

    The famous resort of Tenerife has gained its popularity primarily due to the numerous beaches scattered throughout the island. Most of them are distinguished by warm, clear waters, sandy cover and well-developed infrastructure. However, not all Tenerife beaches are designed for passive recreation: some offer excellent conditions for water sports. We decided to take a closer look at this topic and compiled our own list of the best places.

    Playa de Benijo

    photo: Sunset on Playa de Benijo
    This attractive beach ( Playa de Benijo ) is located in the northeast of Tenerife at the foot of the Anaga Mountains. The sand on the beach is very fine, and the water off the coast is incredibly clean and transparent. The place attracts with its stunning sunsets.

    Playa del Camison

    • Sunbed + umbrellas (6 € set)
    • shower and toilet – free of charge

    Located between two famous resorts – Los Cristianos and Los Americas. This is a typical artificial beach with gray sand, which cannot be called the longest. The length of the coastline is about 350 m. But it boasts a width of about 40 m.

    The distance to the nearest city of Arona is a little more than 500 m. photo: Blue flag winner Playa de las Vistas
    The Blue Flag Playa de las Vistas ( Playa de las Vistas ) is very popular. The beach is located in Los Cristianos in the south of Tenerife and has soft golden sand and calm waters. The beach is beautiful, safe and ideal for long walks as it is 805 meters long. This is a great place to relax with family and children.

    Bollullo

    The black sand beach in Tenerife called Bollullo is located in the northern part of the island, between two settlements – Puerto de la Cruz and La Corujera. Tourists get here either by car or on foot through banana plantations along a footpath leading down. The local coast is distinguished by dark volcanic sand and bizarre stone statues. The shore is quite wide, but entering the water here is not very convenient, since quite large stones come across at the bottom. The coast is characterized by strong waves, so tourists do not always manage to swim here.

    It is important to note that there is no infrastructure on Bollullo. However, there is a small cafe upstairs where there is paid parking (3 €). Behind the diner building you can find a functioning toilet. Down on the shore, a lifeguard monitors the safety of visitors. In general, Bollullo is distinguished by cleanliness, incredible scenery and the absence of tourist crowds. But the place is more suitable for contemplation of natural beauties than for a full-fledged beach holiday.

    Camison

    Of course, the black beach in Tenerife deserves tourist attention, but if we talk about the most comfortable place to relax, Camison is worth mentioning. It is located on the southwestern coast of the island, in the popular resort of Playa de la Americas. The length of the coast approaches 350 m, while its width reaches no more than 40 m. Camison is covered with gray-yellow sand brought here from the Sahara. The entrance to the water is very uniform, and the breakwaters installed here exclude the appearance of large waves.

    Camison – paid beach, entrance fee is 6 €. The area equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas is open from 09:00 to 18:00. At the exit from the territory there are latrines and showers, but there are no changing rooms. Numerous shops and cafes lined up along the shore, where you can have an inexpensive lunch. The main disadvantage of the place is a large number of tourists, which in turn suffers from the level of cleanliness. Of course, Caminos can hardly be called the best beach in the resort, but it is quite feasible to relax on it in comfort.

    El Benijo

    El Benijo, located in the northeast of the island and belonging to the town of Taganana, is the most remote and one of the most beautiful beaches in Tenerife. First of all, the place impresses with its unique landscapes and unforgettable panoramas of the coast with its mountain ranges and rocks. The shore is covered with black sand: near the water – coarser, and near the rocks – like gunpowder, into which the feet fall.

    El Benijo often has large waves, the bottom here is uneven, rocky, so entering the water is uncomfortable. At the same time, the beach is truly wild: no sunbeds, no toilets, no cafes. But the lack of infrastructure does not in the least prevent some tourists from getting on a towel, often in the nude. The descent to the shore passes through a specially laid out wooden staircase, extending down 90 m. The beginning of the road is at the El Mirador restaurant, where you can also park your car. Although El Benijo is considered one of the best beaches in Tenerife, it should not be considered as an ideal place for swimming, but rather as a unique natural attraction.

    Duque

    Among the best beaches in Tenerife there is another popular place called Duque. It is located in the southwest of the island, 3 km from the resort town of Costa Adeje. The coastline here stretches for 450 m, while the recreation area is quite wide, reaching 50 m in some places. Duque is dotted with yellow sand brought from the African continent. For the most part, entry into the water is even, but there are some points where the bottom drops off abruptly. The best time for swimming is in the morning, because in the afternoon there is an invasion of waves.

    Duka provides all the necessary amenities, except for changing rooms. For 16 € you can rent a set of an umbrella and two sun loungers. But resting on towels is not prohibited here. There are several cafes and restaurants along the coastline. The beach is always filled with tourists, because of which its cleanliness suffers. But, in general, this is a well-groomed, beautiful place with warm and clean water.

    Playa de las Vistas

    If you look at the beaches of Tenerife on the map, you will notice that many of them are concentrated in the southwestern part of the island. These include the town of Playa de las Vistas, located within the famous resort of Playa de la Americas. This is a fairly spacious beach, stretching for a distance of 1 km. The coast is covered with yellow sand, and the breakwater installed here protects it from the waves. The water in the ocean is transparent, and the entrance to it is uniform.

    Playa de las Vistas has free toilets and showers. If you want to relax in comfort, you can rent an umbrella with two sunbeds for 12 €. Rescuers monitor the order and safety of tourists in the recreation area. On the beach there is an opportunity to plunge into the world of water activities: you can choose from trips on bananas, catamarans and scooters. In the neighborhood there are numerous eateries and cafes, shops with very affordable prices are open. As a rule, Playa de las Vistas is always crowded, but there is enough space for everyone.

    Playa Jardin

    In the description of the beaches of Tenerife, there are often locations where the coast is covered with black volcanic sand. Playa Jardin, located in the northern central region of the island, just belongs to such places. This is a small sandy stretch no more than 250 m long, smoothly turning into Playa Chica beach, which in turn adjoins Playa Grande beach. In total, the coast stretches for 900 m. The third section is the best for relaxing and swimming, since the entry into the water is more even here, and the surface consists only of sand without admixture of stones.

    The area is characterized by large waves: most often a red flag is set in the recreation area, less often a yellow one. Safety is strictly monitored by the rescue service. The infrastructure of Playa Hardin does not raise questions: there are latrines, places for changing clothes and showers. Everyone can use a sun lounger by paying 3 € at the cash desk. An umbrella is charged 2. 5 €. The beach is equipped with a volleyball area, where major sports tournaments are often held. If you walk along the coast, you will find several cafes, a pizzeria and a playground.

    La Arena

    On the map, the best beaches of Tenerife are not distinguished by any special symbol, but all official holiday points are marked with a green sign with an umbrella. Place La Arena can be found in the northwest of the island, 1.6 km south of the town of Puerto de Santiago. This is a miniature sandy stretch, no more than 200 m long, sandwiched between volcanic rocks. The coast is covered with black sand interspersed with obsidian, the entry into the ocean is quite steep, and large blocks are often found at the bottom. La Arena is characterized by strong waves and changeable wind, so the red flag is a frequent guest of the coast.

    The beach infrastructure includes all amenities, but you will have to pay for using each of them: toilet – 0.20 €, showers – 1 €, sunbed – 2 €, umbrella – 1 €. Near the coast, there are many restaurants with Mediterranean cuisine, pizzerias, and the Dino super market, which sells the necessary goods and products. La Arena is the best option for those looking for a convenient beach to relax and sunbathe surrounded by volcanic sands.

    Las Tericitas

    If you are interested in the beaches of Tenerife for holidays with children, then Las Tericitas can be one of the best solutions. The place is located in the northeast of the island near the village of San Andres. The picturesque coast stretched out in the shape of a crescent for a distance of almost 1.5 km. The beach is covered with golden sand from the Sahara, entry into the water is quite uniform, there are practically no waves. This is a very calm and clean beach, but sometimes very crowded, but there is enough space for everyone.

    Las Terisitas has a well-developed infrastructure: it has all the amenities, from changing rooms and showers to beach accessories. Renting a sun lounger will cost 3-4 €. There is a spacious free parking near the shore, where there are always free places. Near the beach there are a variety of bars and eateries. A rich selection of establishments is also presented in the village itself, where you can walk from the shore in 10-15 minutes. In the high season, an inflatable town for the smallest visitors operates in the water (admission 5 €). Las Terisitas is the best beach for a relaxing family holiday.

    El Medano

    El Medano beach is located on the territory of the town of the same name in the south of Tenerife. The place is famous for its strong winds that blow through the coast almost all year round. That is why the beach has become one of the best places on the island for windsurfing and kitesurfing. And for a standard beach holiday, El Medano is hardly suitable. Well, if you are determined to conquer the wave, then all the necessary conditions are provided here: a surf school, equipment stores, and equipment rental.

    The coast is strewn with black volcanic sand, it is very comfortable to enter the water, the depth grows evenly. The local infrastructure is represented only by a toilet and a couple of locker rooms where queues line up. There are no establishments on the shore itself, but there is a small cafe within walking distance. You can also find free parking near the beach.

    Playa de las Americas

    One of the best beaches in Tenerife is the tiny sandy island of Playa de las Americas. The place is located in the south-west of the island on the territory of the resort of the same name. This is a fairly cozy and clean beach no more than 200 m long, covered with soft yellow sand. Waves, as a rule, are small or completely absent here.

    There are always a lot of vacationers on the shore, which, however, will not prevent you from finding a free place. Beach chairs and umbrellas are available for rent at Playa de las Americas. There are restrooms and changing rooms. There are a couple of cafes and fast food restaurants next to the beach. The only disadvantage of this location is the lack of ample parking nearby.

    Playa Jardín Beach

    photo: Black sand beach Playa Jardín beach
    An interesting feature of Jardín beach ( Playa Jardín beach ) are flowers and palm trees that grow near the beach and give it a special picturesque. The gardens are a project of the artist César Manrique. The sand on the beach has a soft black color, and it is washed by significant waves, which is good for sports.

    Tenerife East coast beaches

    Tenerife East coast due to strong winds is not very popular with ordinary tourists, but attracts many lovers of all types of surfers: kite surfing, windsurfing, and scuba diving. Here are the best surf and dive centers in Tenerife, and the cost of basic training is quite affordable.

    Local towns are not spoiled by tourists, so here prices are lower and there are much fewer people. Many beaches with black and gray volcanic sand, there are very small urban and wild beaches with little or no infrastructure. For those who appreciate privacy, these beaches are a great option for a day trip.

    You can swim and sunbathe here all year round, but don’t forget about the strong wind and waves.

    The main beaches of the east coast of Tenerife

    • El Médano resort – very windy, great for surfing Playa La Tejita – kilometer long beach
    • Playa El Médano – long and wide beach with light sand, a favorite place for surfers
    • Playa Leocadio Machado
    • 9 Las Gaietas (Las Galletas)
        Playa Las Gaietas
    • Los Enojados – a small beach with light sand
    • Los Abrigos
        Playa de Los Abrigos
    • Candelaria
        Playa de Las Arenas Candelaria – not to be confused with other La Arena beaches
    • I would recommend staying on the east coast for the whole rest only to those who like active sports recreation (choose the El Medano resort) or those who prefer maximum privacy and lack of tourists. Wallowing on the beach in the wind, and then shaking the sand out of all available places is a pleasure for everyone. But surfers here are full expanse.

      Playa Fanabe Beach

      photo: Playa Fanabe Beach is the best place to explore the underwater world of Tenerife
      Those who want to enjoy water sports should definitely visit Playa de Fanabe ( Playa Fanabe Beach ) in the southern part of the island. Another interesting feature of the place are glass bottom boats, where you can go on exciting excursions and get acquainted with the amazing underwater life.

      Las Gaviotas

      • no infrastructure (wild)

      No less popular with black sand of natural volcanic origin, surrounded by the Anaga mountain range. The nearest town near it is 10 km away. It is called Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Tourists from different parts of the world come here to relax.

      Length – 280 m, width – 43 m.

      Car parking is provided, as well as a bus stop, which is 600 m away. There is a kiosk nearby where you can buy snacks and drinks.

      Playa El Medano Beach

      photo: El Medano – the best place for surfing
      The resort town of El Meldano ( El Medano ) in the south of Tenerife has a long coastline with attractive sandy beaches . The coast stretches from Plaza de El Médano to Mount Montano Rojo and is great for relaxing and surfing.

      Beaches of the north coast of Tenerife

      On the north coast of the island there is much more rain than in the south, and the temperature differs by several degrees down. Thanks to this, there is much more greenery in this part of Tenerife than on the south side. There are also enough beaches here, but only a few of them can boast of the possibility of swimming in winter and spring. On the rest it will be comfortable to swim only in summer and early autumn.

      However, even in winter, you can enjoy walking along the beautiful and harsh beaches, enjoying the sea air, amazing landscapes, riot of greenery and the power of ocean waves.

      I give a table with the temperature of water and air by months for the resorts of the north of Tenerife (for example, I took Puerto de la Cruz)

      El Medano. The beaches in the north are suitable for surfing: there are constant waves and wind, and the waves themselves are much higher than in the east.

      All beaches are covered with natural volcanic sand. There are no white sand beaches on the north coast. The beaches near the cities are well ennobled, and there are also wild ones, almost without visitors.

      Beaches can be found for every taste. Look for warm water, convenience and service – this is the south coast. If you want to heal – in the west there are many beaches with black healing sand.

      Tenerife natural pools

      In addition to the beaches, Tenerife offers a unique opportunity to swim in volcanic natural pools. This is a real miracle of nature – red-hot lava, descending to the sea, gradually solidified, forming bizarre shapes. Some of them turned out to be perfectly adapted for swimming: due to the waves and tides, they are filled with clear sea water, which quickly warms up in the sun.

      Tourists can find this charming small and very calm beach on the west coast of the island. Its decoration is volcanic black sand and cleanliness, thanks to which it received the Blue Flag award. On the beach you can go in for sports, have a bite to eat in various cafes and restaurants, as well as swim a lot under the supervision of experienced lifeguards.

      What do beaches in Tenerife have in common?

      All beaches in Tenerife are free, there are no private beaches and coastal hotel areas, as happens in Turkey and Egypt. Additional services, such as an umbrella, a deck chair, showers, toilets, may be paid. On average, a sunbed and an umbrella will cost 5-10 euros per day for two.

      For natural reasons (it is worth remembering that Tenerife is an island of volcanic origin) all the beaches were originally covered with black and dark gray sand. This sand made from crushed volcanic rock has healing properties and has a healing effect on the body. However, with the increase in tourist flow to the island, some beaches began to be ennobled, giving them a more traditional look. To do this, the beaches in some resort areas were covered with specially brought white and yellow sand.

      Playa de las Teresitas beach

      photo: Playa de las Teresitas beach is next to the island page fresh seafood restaurants. The place is located a few minutes from the capital of Tenerife, Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The beach has excellent golden sand, and the clear waters washing it have greenish and coral hues.

      Abama

      Pictures of Tenerife’s beaches attract with their picturesqueness, and pictures of a place called Abama are no exception. This miniature piece of coast is located in the west of the island, 14 km north of the resort of Callao Salvaje. Its length is no more than 150 m. Abama is one of the best sandy beaches in Tenerife, but the sand here is not native, but imported from the Sahara. A massive stone ridge protects the local waters from waves, so swimming here is a pleasure.

      The beach will please its visitors with all necessary amenities. For an additional fee, you can use sunbeds and showers. There is a cafe near the shore, and latrines are located right there. In general, the coast here is clean and not crowded. The only disadvantage of Abama is the steep descent to the ocean, which takes 5-10 minutes, and, accordingly, the return ascent is quite exhausting. If you stay at the Ritz Hotel, located nearby, then the entire infrastructure of the beach is provided to you for free.

      La Caleta Beach

      What to see in Tenerife?

      1. Pyramids of Guimar

      The most mysterious landmark of Tenerife are the Pyramids of Guimar. To this day, it has not been possible to unravel the mystery of their origin. Even who built them and why, everything also remains a mystery. Only one thing is known that they have something to do with astrology, but scientists have been struggling to unravel this issue for many years. After an excursion to the pyramids, tourists are invited to visit the museum, which is located next door.

      2. City of Garachico

      The incredible city of Garachico is not just a settlement, but a beautiful attraction on the north coast of Tenerife, which is a must-see during your holiday on the island. The attractive atmosphere of the town makes you come to it again and again. Narrow romantic streets among beautiful houses of former eras predispose to unhurried walks. The volcanic coast without beaches is compensated by pools that are in the rocks. And along the entire coast, nimble crabs of red and black color scurry about. The experience of swimming in a place filled with such beauty will make travelers look at the volcanic islands differently.

      3. Candelaria Basilica

      The main religious sights of Tenerife include the Candelaria Basilica. This Catholic church is free for tourists to visit and does not require entry fees. Residents from all over the island come to the church in order to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary, who patronizes the temple. But the Candelaria Basilica is different from the usual temples – noisy festivities can be held in it with fireworks, which does not at all fit in with religious canons.

      4. Icod de los Vinos

      The charming city of Icod de los Vinos, located in Tenerife, has been leading its history for the sixth century. The traditional architecture of local buildings located in the central part of the city will allow you to plunge into the atmosphere of bygone eras. The main attraction of the town was a thousand-year-old tree, although it was not possible to find out for sure how old it was, but it was definitely more than a thousand.

      5. Orotava

      Truly, the beautiful city of Orotava has become a historical landmark in Tenerife. The settlement was built by the Spaniards in the 16th century on the site of an Aboriginal settlement. And despite the time and the influence of civilization, the town has remained almost in its original form, which attracts many tourists. Every year the city hosts a special holiday called Carpet Day. On this day, all the streets of the city are full of bright outfits – panels that will incredibly transform the city.

      6. Dragon tree

      The pride of the town of Icod de los Vinos, however, like the whole island and country, is the Dragon tree, which has more than a thousand years of its existence. It is located on the territory of Drago Park, where visitors, in addition to exploring the sights, can also get acquainted with the ethnic characteristics of the natives. At the beginning of the last century, the Dragon Tree added to the list of national monuments and became a symbol of Tenerife.

      7. Teide National Park

      Tenerife’s world-famous landmark is the Teide National Park. The reserve is named after the active volcano Teide, climbing which is considered a must when visiting the island. This ancient volcano is no less than 5 million years old, and not to visit it is unforgivable stupidity. Climbing a volcano 3.5 km high, tourists can enjoy the picturesque landscapes that open from a height.

      8. Masca Gorge

      An unusually beautiful place in Tenerife is the rocky Masca Gorge. It is significant in that its rocky slopes, which you can still go down, will lead straight to the ocean. Those who dare to descend should stock up on water for several hours of the journey down, wear comfortable shoes and be patient. The reward for such a trip will be a rocky beach near the ocean. You can get back on the boat that runs from here to Los Gigantes.

      9. Park of the Eagles

      A unique landmark of Tenerife is the Park of the Eagles. Despite its name, it is inhabited by almost all representatives of the fauna. Here you can meet the predators of the African savannahs, and crocodiles, and monkeys from different parts of the world, and even fur seals that arrange performances in the water arena for visitors. There is even a bobsleigh track built in natural jungle conditions. And performances with trained eagles (which is out of the ordinary) take place several times a day. This, by the way, is one of the best places in Tenerife to visit with children.

      10. Los Gigantes Rocks

      The Los Gigantes Rocks are the steep slopes of the Teide volcano. The natives call them the “Walls of Hell” because the black volcanic rocks that make up the rocks cause awe and at the same time admiration for the forces of nature. The view of this beautiful place is really incredible. It is rare to see such a picturesque landscape. Tourists can also visit the town of the same name, in the port of which dolphins and whales splash.

      11. Loro Parque

      One of the main man-made sights of the Canary Islands can be called Loro Parque or otherwise “Parrot Park”. Initially, its territory was indeed inhabited only by feathered representatives of this genus, but now there are many outlandish animals and plants here. All day long, the park hosts fascinating animal shows, which are definitely worth seeing while traveling in Tenerife. Families come from all over the world to Loro Parque to enjoy a wonderful holiday in this amazing place.

      12. Siam Park

      Siam Park is the best place in Tenerife where you can relax after visiting all the listed attractions. To date, the park has set itself the goal of bypassing all other water parks in Europe in terms of entertainment.
