Sumario:The aim of our work is to address the situation of the Mozarabic community of Toledo after the Christian conquest of the city in 1085, and to analyze their interaction with the group of Christians from the north in a context increasingly marked by the influence of Rome that imposed as urgent certain changes in the religious and cultural habits of the population. Taking into account this last issue, we propose that what happened in Toledo can be classified as an acculturation since the civil and ecclesiastical powers launched a series of devices to erase the Visigoth and Arab heritage in the medium and long term, in order to lead a community increasingly homogeneous. A strategy that used to accompany the conquests that far from exhausted in its economic aspects involved also the loss of an autonomous cultural development for the vanquished, specially affecting their language and religion.
