The Lineage and the Lance: History of the Duque Lineage (Spanish version) is a historical‑genealogical study offering a rigorously documented reconstruction of the Duque lineage — a Spanish noble family whose memory remains deeply rooted in local culture through emblems, oral traditions, and dispersed archival materials. The work combines genealogical analysis with heraldry and social history, spanning from the late Middle Ages to the present day.

Drawing on primary sources and noble archives, the study traces the evolution of the lineage within the broader context of Castile’s historical transformations, exploring its territorial affiliations, symbols of identity, and participation in institutional life. The volume articulates a narrative that extends beyond the specific family to engage with the intangible heritage of the Spanish nobility, reclaiming its value as a vehicle of historical memory.

This work stands within the tradition of applied research in genealogical and heritage history and represents a distinctive contribution to the study of noble lineages. It offers a methodological model that can be replicated in other genealogical investigations with academic intent.
