Abstract

The article focuses on the social aspects of military structure in Seville, Spain, during the 16th and 17th centuries. The author analyzes historic documents and files in order to discuss the role of diverse Sevillian lineages in forming various military orders, focusing primarily on Santiago, Calatrava and Alcántara. Social, political and military aspects of the familial orders are discussed with respect to the specific structures within Seville. Connotations of purity, wealth and nobility with each order are also explored.
