The castle, as a device and not as part of an escutcheon, appears in all Castilian coins of the time. Castle devices placed in rows have been found on two stoles embroidered by Queen Eleanor from 1197 to 1198. One of the first representations of the castle emblem in an escutcheon has been displayed on a green

This hypothesis is reinforced by the fact that the marriage of
Alfonso VIII and Eleanor was celebrated from 1170 to 1176, immediately prior to the adoption of the emblem according to preserved sources. Faustino Menéndez Pidal de Navascués defends as another possible reason for this combination of
