En el siglo XVIII, los barcos de guerra europeos utilizaban varios tipos y dependían de ellas para fondear y realizar otras maniobras. La industria ancorera constituyó en aquel entonces una de las expresiones más complejas de la tecnología de forjado del hierro y, en el marco de un proceso de industrialización creciente, estuvo sujeta a varios cambios. En este artículo examinamos las características de las anclas, en materia de diseño y manufactura, de las principales potencias marítimas. A la luz de las fuentes documentales y materiales disponibles, discutimos aspectos relativos al proceso de estandarización y cambio tecnológico en la industria ancorera. Complementariamente, presentamos algunos lineamientos para el estudio de anclas de procedencia arqueológica.

Anchors were an element of major importance throughout the history of navigation. In the 18th century, European warships used various types and relied on them to anchor and perform other maneuvers. The anchor industry was at that time one of the most complex expressions of iron forging technology and, under a process of increasing industrialization, it was subject to several changes. In this article, we examine the characteristics of the anchors of the main Maritime powers in terms of design and manufacturing. In light of the available documentary and material sources, we discuss aspects related to the process of standardization and technological change in the anchor industry. Complementarily, we present some guidelines for the study of anchors of archaeological provenance. |
