The Lead Books of the Sacromonte and the Parchment of the Torre Turpiana: Granada, 1588-1606 : General Introduction, Critical Edition, and Translation - Leiden : Brill, 2023

The Archive of the Sacromonte Abbey in Granada preserves a historical treasure: Arabic texts on a sheet of parchment and on numerous small tablets of lead, which were discovered in Granada at the end of the sixteenth century in the tower of the old Friday Mosque and in caves of the "Valparaíso" hillock, from then on called "Sacromonte". They became the object of heated discussions in Europe and were condemned by the Pope in 1682.
