Resumen: The sedimentology and sedimentary evolution of the Barremian Artoles Fm in the Camino de Miravete section (Galve sub-basin, Spain) is presented. The detailed log of the stratigraphic succession together with facies analysis and fossil content have allowed the distinction of four main facies associations: mixed terrigenous-carbonate lagoon, flood-tidal delta, proximal middle ramp and distal middle ramp. The sedimentary evolution of facies associations characterizes three successive stages: I- restricted carbonate lagoon system, II- middle ramp system and III- turning back to another carbonate lagoon with more open facies. Eustasy and tectonics may be responsible of the abrupt deepening that took place between stages I and II.
