论文摘要
我们与附近的现代圣克鲁斯·德·特内里费岛(Santa Cruz de tenerife)相比,我们讨论了特内里费岛(西班牙)圣克里斯托瓦尔·德拉古纳市的特殊规划,该计划是前城市的海上港口。为此,我们回顾了我们先前关于La Laguna旧部分的二十一座历史基督教教堂的确切空间取向的研究,我们将其与对位于圣克鲁斯的六座类似建筑物进行分析进行了比较,并在此处首次介绍。在这两个城市中,我们都以历史教会的空间取向为各自的城市格局原始布局的良好指标。尽管我们发现了La Laguna的明确取向模式,该模式在Santa Cruz的情况下,挑出了一个绝对值得的天文偏差,略低于20度,指出接近San Cristobal de Litia的7月25日盛宴的首选日期。相反,由于统计数字较低,我们在不确定性中找到了圣克鲁斯的模式,除了一个等骨和一个面向溶解度的教堂外,我们还与在日出的规范范围内的地形方向保持一致。这一结果凸显了拉拉古纳市的独特性,并支持了这一想法,暗示了其在16世纪初期的故意计划。
We discuss the peculiar planning of the city of San Cristobal de La Laguna, in the Canary Island of Tenerife (Spain), when compared to the nearby and essentially contemporary Santa Cruz de Tenerife, which served as a maritime port of the former city. For this we review our previous study of the exact spatial orientation of twenty-one historic Christian churches currently existing in the old part of La Laguna, which we compare with the analysis of six similar buildings located in Santa Cruz, and presented here for the first time. In both cities, we take the spatial orientation of historic churches as good indicators of the original layout of the respective urban lattices. Although we find a clear orientation pattern for La Laguna, which singles out an absolute-value astronomical declination slightly below 20 degrees, pointing to a preferred date close to the July 25th feast-day of San Cristobal de Licia, in the case of Santa Cruz this trend is not followed. On the contrary, the pattern we find for Santa Cruz, within the uncertainties due to the low statistics, and apart from one equinoctial and one solstitial oriented churches, is consistent with an orographic orientation within the canonic limits of sunrise. This result highlights the uniqueness of the city of La Laguna, and supports the idea suggesting its deliberate planning in the early 16th century.
