Abstract


In light of today's unquestionable interest and historical study of the 16th century, this article focuses on a family of Morisco (Muslim converts to Christianity) artisans —the Orejón family— within a specific locale. This study shall assess the form of support that certain noble families extended to their Morisco workers to protect them against the daily obstacles they faced within a hostile Christian society. This work, leaving aside artistic considerations, offers a view on the formation of a «convert kinship» in the context of a specific city, Guadalajara, where the noble Mendoza family resided.
