Simancas (sēmäng`käs), village, Valladolid prov., NW Spain, in Castile-León. The castle, an old fort rebuilt in the 15th cent., contains the Spanish national archives. Begun by Ferdinand V in Valladolid, the collection was transferred to Simancas in 1563 by Emperor Charles V and was much enriched by Philip II.

Alem disso, encontramos no Archivo General de Simancas uma documentacao que, ao reconstruir parcialmente uma peleja entre Dona Maria de Menezes, viuva de Gaspar de Sousa, e o provedor-mor das Alfandegas do Reino, Luis das Pousas, indicou que sua filha, Antonia de Menezes, ao se casar com esse provedor, sem a sua autorizacao, frustrou expectativas familiares e comprometeu o uso dessa promessa.
The book's value lies more in his diligent work in archives in Valencia, Madrid and Simancas, and most of that, as in Perry's book, is extremely interesting.
