Abstract
The opening of medieval roads and trade routes in the Basque territories was part of the process of social organisation of the area occurring throughout the extensive medieval period. In this article we discuss how the gradual establishment of commercial activity in the medieval Basque territories contributed to their territorial configuration and to the establishment of lines of communication geared towards the main commercial route of medieval Europe: the sea.
