moreAbstract: The conquest of Jerez by King Alfonso 10th the Wise in 1264 brought about the stablishment of the Order of Preachers in the town. This work analyzes the earliest record reserved of its foundation, a 1267 plumb-sealed letter from King Alfonso 10th, as well as a second enlarged text transmitted by local historians and included in another document, whose detailed paleographic and diplomatic analysis has proven it to be false.
Resumen: La conquista de Jerez por Alfonso X el Sabio en 1264 trajo consigo el establecimiento de la Orden de Predicadores en la ciudad. En el presente trabajo se estudia tanto el primer documento conservado de la fundación, una carta plomada de Alfonso X de 1267, como un segundo texto ampliado, difundido por la historiografía local y recogido en otro documento, cuyo detallado análisis paleográfico y diplomático ha demostrado su condición de falso.
