Abstract
The conflict unleashed in the Alpujarras at the end of 1568 by some new Christian misfits before a faith imposed years ago, the result of an abrupt rule that prevented them from having a long acculturation that the rest of the Peninsular Mudejars had suffered, led to a painful exodus of these people throughout of Castile, affecting even those who had not participated in the revolt. In this way, many places in the kingdom, including Talavera, would become the new home for the thousands of Moors from Granada who had to abide by the dictates of the royal authority, which sought the elimination of all religious practices other than Christianity.
