Sepulcher of Santiago, Santiago de Compostela, Codex Calixtinus, CharlemagneAbstract
In this work there is studied the episode of the appearance of the apostle Santiago to Charlemagne contained in the book IV of the Codex Calixtinus. The anachronism of this fact is justified with the Epístola Leonis (contained in the book III of the Codex), probably of the century XI, which is a history attributed to a pope León arid directed the kings of Francs, Romans, Goth and Vandal, that had reigned three centuries before that Charlemagne. Across this Epístola of fiction the Emperor would have news of the existence of the sepulcher of the Apostle in Europa's limits before his invention in the year 818.
