Made in 1720, the Map of Toledo by José de Arroyo Palomeque is a detailed, panoramic map of Palomeque’s home city of Toledo as seen from the south of the river Tagus. It shows the medieval streets, the thirteenth-century cathedral and cathedral square, and the Alcantara Bridge, among other details, which remain primarily unchanged to the present day. A legend identifying the numbered buildings, plazas, bridges, and gates on the map is provided at the bottom, flanked by two child-like figures in what seems to be the dress of Amerindians.

International social justice movements and the debates that ensued prompted us to start considering the contents of our website from a critical point of view. This has led us to acknowledge that most of the texts in our database are Western-centered. We have asked the authors of our content to be aware of the underlying racial and cultural bias in many scholarly sources, and to try to keep in mind multiple points of view while describing the manuscripts. We also recognize that this is yet a small, first step towards fighting inequality.

If you notice any trace of racist or unjust narratives in our communications, please help us be part of the change by letting us know.
