HISTORY?

Some students are thinking about studying... You should know:
FIRST.- Historians do not call it HISTORY, but HISTORIOGRAPHY.
SECOND.- When historians start a researh they use DOCUMENTSA.

Teacher... I do not understand anything! What language is the text written?
What you are reading is part of a document written in the 15th century. And... No doubt... It is Spanish!

1. What's the name of the person that you can find in the text?
2. And, when was it written?
