Javier Martínez de Aguirre Aldaz, «Faustino Menéndez Pidal de Navascués: Researcher of Navarrese Heraldry», Revista Príncipe de Viana, ISSN 0032-8472, year number 68, issue number 241, dedicated to the tribute to Faustino Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, pages 343-358, Government of Navarra, Institución Príncipe de Viana, Pamplona, 2007.


This article highlights the analysis of the importance of the publication of [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1963] to understand what is possibly the true origin of the shield of Navarra, surpassing the legends about the chains (the most widespread being the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa and the less widespread of Archangel Michael and the devil turned dragon), and basing its origin on the evolution of the shield's block to the radiated block, as elements of defensive reinforcement, giving rise to the carbuncle as a heraldic element.

It also describes well how, over time, this theory of the radiated block and the carbuncle, permeated Navarrese society, in parallel with political changes, and the historical and heraldic academic opinion.

Javier Martínez de Aguirre Aldaz had already published together with Faustino Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, 7 years earlier about the shield of Navarra, [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; Martínez de Aguirre, J.; 2000].

[Martínez de Aguirre, J.; 2007; page 344 and following] provides a good analysis of the importance of this work both for Navarrese heraldry and specifically for its coat of arms, as well as for heraldry in general.

Transcription and study of the Navarrese manuscript armorial [Bosque, J. del; 1540], preserved in the General Archive of Navarra.

This book contains an introduction, the transcription of the armorial texts, its photographic reproduction, which also includes the Navarrese coats of arms of the Reyneck armorial and the coat of arms of the refectory of the Cathedral of Santa María la Real de Pamplona, an index of names, a heraldic table, and a set of appendices [Martínez de Aguirre, J.; 2007; page 351].

The coat of arms accompanying this bibliographic reference is that of Qasqante de Navarra following, precisely, the armorial of Juan del Bosque.

The coat of arms with squares accompanying this bibliographic reference is that of Guebara de Navarra, an interpretation based on that by [Bosque, J. del; 1540]. I chose this coat of arms because Faustino Menéndez Pidal writes precisely about it and about the squares as a figure typical of Spanish heraldry, for example, he does so on pages 474 and 475 of this article.

This is one of the many publications by Faustino Menéndez Pidal de Navascués on the Navarrese armorial [Bosque, J. del; 1540].
