El estudio analiza el papel que tuvieron las ‘unidades caninas’ o jaurías de origen europeo que adiestraron dentro de la esfera militar, incluyendo otras utilidades que se les otorgó durante el transcurso de las campañas militares de sometimiento en La Española, desde la batalla campal de la Vega Real, en marzo de 1495, hasta la finalización de la Segunda Guerra de Higüey, en marzo 1505, incluyendo su declive en el contexto colonizador. Igualmente, se identifican aquellos elementos que constituyen el equipamiento auxiliar del perro, de carácter defensivo-pasivo, conformado por la carlanca y la barda, a partir de evidencias arqueológicas conservadas en museos de trashumancia, incluyendo referencias contenidas en la literatura e iconografía.
This research analyzes the role played by European canine units, or packs, trained within the military sphere, during the course of the military subjugation campaigns on Hispaniola, from the Battle of the Vega Real, in March 1495, until the end of the second war of Higüey, in March 1505. This includes the apex and decline of their use in the colonizing context. Likewise, those elements that constitute the dog´s defensive-passive auxiliary equipment - the wolf collar and the barding - are identified based on archaeological evidence preserved in transhumance museums, as well as in literary and iconographic references.
