Notas: Abstract: This study presents the analysis of the relations between archaeological sites from the Bronze Age and their environments. The cases studied here belong to the lower courses of the rivers Huerva and Jalon, in the central sector of the Ebro Basin (NE Spain ). The first part of the study presents the modelling procedures of the variables selected for the analysis. This modelling is done in a Geographic Information System generated and managed in ArcGIS and is mainly based on the topography and geomorphology, but with a paleoenvironmental interpretation in some variables. In the second part of the study the values taken from the modelled variables are ana-lyzed by means of multivariate statistics using principal components analysis and grouping (clus-ter). In these statistical analyses, the modelled variables are divided into groups: topographical, geomorphological, soil and risks, control and defence. Finally, it provides a review of the methodology used and the results obtained. Key Words: Geographic Information Systems, Spatial Archaeology, Principal Component Analy-sis, Bronze Age, Ebro Basin.
