Summary
A new chronological framework for the construction and patronage of the San Esteban de Salamanca convent (14th century) corrects centuries-old historiographical errors by reconciling Hispanic and Christian era dates, providing accurate timelines for the church, cloister, and fence. The study reveals the devotional topography shaped by the Limógenes and Godínez families' funerary and religious practices, offering insights into Dominican liturgical space organization during this period. Methodologically, it combines documentary analysis with architectural reconstruction to clarify the site's evolution.
