Execution in favor of Hernán Ponce de León

Executory Letter of Nobility in favor of Hernán Ponce de León and Pedro de Valbuena.-, from Villa de Ruiponce. Given in the Villa de Valladolid on the eighth day of the month of June, year... 1548. 12 h. of parchment, handwritten with the framed text, enc. in page and lead seal hanging from colored silk threads. Miniature capitulars. First sheet illuminated with a large shield in the capitular letter, allegorical border, and text in the center. Slight loss of ink on the back of the h. of parchment, which do not affect reading. Despite not having much concrete information about the life of the Spanish conquistador Hernán Ponce de León, we know that in 1516 he participated in the expedition organized by Pedrarias Dávila to the western coast of the Isthmus of Panama and in the conquest of Nicaragua. Around 1536 he joined Hernando de Soto in the conquest of Peru. The one we present is a unique document in the history of the Spanish conquerors.
