The University of Valladolid was a reality in the last quarter of the 13th century and it enjoyed the protection of the crown and, later, the Papacy. In short, a royal and pontifical university which deeply roots in The Castilian Middle Ages. In 1292, Sancho IV gave the Study of Valladolid the tercias of Valladolid and its small villages, as well as other salaries for its maintenance. Around the same dates, in 1293, Sancho IV created the Estudio General de Alcalá by following the model the study created in the city of Pisuerga years ago. It is about an intellectual impulse which is produced in parallel to the material flourishment and progress in big cities and Castilian councils, from which Valladolid appears as a very importance example.
In principle, in the Study of Valladolid they were taught the most basic disciplines: Grammar, Arithmetic and a little bit of Latin and Holly scripture. Later the villa obtained the royal and pontifical favor for its emerging learning center. In 1346 the Pope Clement VI, at the request of Alfonso XI, transformed into General the Studies of Valladolid. However, the University of Valladolid lacked then theological science, an exclusive privilege of the University of Paris. On the verge of finishing the division of the occidental Church, in 1417, Martin V granted the villa the desired faculty. In parallel, the Castile Monarchs granted the study with salaries, particularly the royal tercias coming from the archpriesthood of Cevico and Portillo, which allowed it a relative economic independence.
