[ES] Intervención arqueológica en el sector suroccidental del arrabal medieval del Arrixaca de Murcia, en el que se pusieron al descubierto los restos del foso de la muralla de la medina y un tramo de la cerca andalusí del arrabal con su correspondiente torreón, sobre el que se edificó una nueva puerta construida tras la conquista. Lo hallado ha permitido estudiar el fenómeno de sustitución de una puerta-torre andalusí, llamada Bâb Abu Sayd, por otra nueva de época cristiana.
