Abstract

The Jewish presence increased in the Spanish Kingdoms since the XIII century. Although they used to live in separate communities, denominated Aljamas, their juridical status was at the same level as Christians. However, their situation was getting worse along the XVI century due to several reasons. The Jewish held important trades under the protection of Peter I until the definitive wave of anti-Semitism was broken out by Henry of Trastamara. Murcia was an exceptional case where the Concordat of 1294 allowed the creation of a good atmosphere for some centuries. The Jewish people were completely integrated in the economic life of Murcia holding trades such as dealer, tax collector and liberal professions.
