          Abstract

          Resumen Fray Tomás de Berlanga (1487-1551) fue un fraile dominico que realizó estudios de geografía, náutica y ciencias naturales. Marchó destinado a América, donde llegaría a ser obispo de Panamá. Viajando hacia Lima, las corrientes marinas le hacen llegar a las Islas Galápagos de lo que informó con detalle al emperador Carlos V. Llevó a cabo un diseño de un paso para mejorar las comunicaciones en el Istmo centroamericano, concretamente en la ruta que, a través del río Chagres, comunicaba ambos mares, el Pacífico o Mar del Sur, con el Atlántico o Mar del Norte. Era el boceto de lo que acabaría siendo el Canal de Panamá. Finalmente, por su gusto por la agricultura y por las innovaciones dietéticas y gastronómicas que introdujo, Fray Tomás de Berlanga es considerado por muchos el patrón de la Dieta Mediterránea. Esta dieta, incorporada a nuestro lenguaje cotidiano, fue declarada, a mediados del año 2010, Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial de la Humanidad, en denominación conjunta para España, Grecia, Italia y Marruecos.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract Fray Tomás de Berlanga (1487-1551) was a Dominican friar who studied geography, nautical and natural sciences. He went to America, where he would become bishop of Panama. Traveling towards Lima, the marine currents make him reach the Galapagos Islands, and he informed in detail to Emperor Carlos V. He carried out a design of a step to improve communications in the Central American Isthmus, specifically on the route that, through from the Chagres River, communicated both seas, the Pacific or South Sea, with the Atlantic or North Sea. It was the sketch of what would end up being the Panama Canal. Finally, because of his fondness for agriculture and the dietary and gastronomic innovations that he introduced, Fray Tomás de Berlanga might be considered the patron of the Mediterranean Diet. This diet, incorporated into our everyday language, was declared, in mid-2010, an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, jointly named for Spain, Greece, Italy and Morocco.
