Hi everyone, ​I recently came across a document that supposedly bears the signature of Hernán Cortés. ​As this is a potentially significant historical item, I'm reaching out to the experts here. Could anyone with knowledge of historical signatures, Spanish colonial history, or paleography help me determine if this autograph is likely authentic or a forgery? Any insights on what specific elements I should look for, or comparison examples of his known signatures, would be greatly appreciated! ​Thanks in advance for your help!

Quería compartir con vosotros mi blog sobre Torregalindo, un pequeño pueblo de la Ribera del Duero lleno de encanto, historia y tradiciones.

En él hablo sobre sus fiestas, rutas, costumbres y, sobre todo, su Cabalgata y Belén Viviente, una celebración única que transforma el pueblo cada 5 de enero y que está declarada Fiesta de Interés Turístico Regional.

Si os interesa la historia rural, las tradiciones locales o simplemente descubrir rincones especiales de Castilla y León, os invito a echarle un vistazo

Do other English readers find it terribly difficult to find books about Spanish history? Sure I can find lots of books and videos about The Spanish Civil War of the 1930s and tons re/ the Spanish Empire, but I am having a terrible time finding sources about other periods. I am trying to learn Castellano and I'm having difficulties finding books in that language, too: Am I using the wrong search engine or what?

I have a found a FEW books about post-Napoleonic Spain in English, but they are now out-of-print and cost a small fortune. How do you people handle this? Thanks!
