The foremost in importance of the gremios of Toledo was that of the silk-weavers (arte mayor de la seda), whose earliest ordinances date from a.d. 1533.
Interesting particulars of the old Toledan gremios generally will be found in the municipal archives of this city, in the Ordenanzas para el buen régimen y gobierno de la muy noble, muy leal é imperial ciudad de Toledo (reprinted in 1858); in Martín Gamero's History of Toledo; and in the Count of Cedillo's scholarly monograph, Toledo in the Sixteenth Century.
