(WARNING˸ LARGE DOWNLOAD˸ 640Mbǃ) The archaeological ensemble of Melque is one of the most important historical sites of the High Middle Ages in Spain․ It is located in the municipality of San Martín de Montalbán‚ just 30 kilometers from the city of Toledo․ It consists of a very well preserved church‚ a monastery‚ several dams and a fence or wall․ However‚ there is no consensus among experts about the date of its foundation․ Some authors date it in the seventh century‚ in Visigothic times‚ while others consider that it was founded in the eighth century by Mozarabs‚ that is to say by Christians but under Muslim domination․ The place was inhabited for centuries which has allowed the preservation of the church in an excellent state to this day․Documented by Global Digital Heritage in September of 2018 using 1110 drone images‚ 112 terrestrial laser scans‚ and 1702 terrestrial photogrammetry images․ These data were processed in Reality Capture․
