This ramshackle stone wall is actually an ancient Aboriginal wall that is over 1,000 years old.
According to the chronicles of the conquest of Fuerteventura, at the beginning of the 15th century, the isthmus of Jandía was crossed in its northern part by a solid stone wall as an impassable wall. To the north of it would extend one of the primitive aboriginal kingdoms, that of Güise, while to the south was the domain of Ayose. Today, only the lower part of this wall can be seen in some sections, while in many others it has completely disappeared. It extends approximately from Matas Blancas to the outskirts of La Pared, running north of the current road that connects both towns.
Some archaeologists think that the wall of the isthmus did not divide the two kingdoms of the ancient majos, but that this limit actually ran much further north, at the height of the La Torre ravine, near the current airport, to the east, and to Jurado beach, in Ajuy, to the west. The wall of the isthmus would actually serve to delimit a land of common use for the inhabitants of both territorial demarcations that would cover the entire Jandía peninsula.
