Pedro de Ayala
Don Pedro de Ayala (died 31 January 1513) was a 16th-century Spanish diplomat employed by Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile at the courts of James IV of Scotland and Henry VII of England. His mission to Scotland was concerned with the King's marriage and the international crisis caused by the pretender Perkin Warbeck. In his later career he supported Catherine of Aragon in England but was involved in a decade of rivalry with the resident Spanish ambassador in London. Ayala was a Papal prothonotary, Archdeacon of London, and Bishop of the Canary Islands.
Sources in English reveal little of Ayala's background, however he was from the noble family of the Counts of Fuensalida in Toledo.〔(Collado, Ángel Fernández, ''La Catedral de Toledo en el Siglo XVI'', Toledo (1999), 65 )〕 He was the son of Pedro Lopez de Ayala, Commendator of Mora and Treze, and Doña Leonor de Ayala.〔José de Viera y Clavijo, ''Noticias de la Historia General de las islas de Canaria'', (1783) p.73, citing (Alonso López de Haro, ''Nobibiliario'', (1622) vol.1 ), bk.3, cap.3, p.111-2〕 His contemporary, the historian Polydore Virgil, who may have known him in England, remarks that he was clever, but no scholar.〔Virgil, Polydore, ''Historia Anglia,'' Book 26 Chapter 37, see external links〕
==Mission to Portugal==
In November 1493,〔(Davenport & Paullin, ''European Treaties Bearing on the History of the United States and Its Dependencies'', Carnegie Institute of Washington, (1917/ repr. 2004), 84 )〕 Don Pedro de Ayala and Don Garcí Lopez de Carbajal were sent in embassy to King John II of Portugal. Their mission concerned the line of demarcation between Spanish and Portuguese maritime exploration. The issue now particularly concerned Ferdinand and Isabella as sponsors of Christopher Columbus, and the Spanish ambassadors offered to put the matter in the Pope's hands as arbitrator.
King John II was displeased by the embassy and the news of Columbus's latest voyage. He is said to have shown the Spanish ambassadors the strength of his cavalry, as if to intimidate them, and later mocked Don Pedro for his limp, and Don Garcia for his frivolous character.〔(Prescott, William Hickling, ''History of the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella'', Bentley, London (1842), pp. 163-164 ) note that Dr Puebla was also said to have a limp.〕 A second negotiation by Portuguese commissioners in Spain in March 1494 was more successful and brought about a new settlement for the rivalry in exploration with the Treaty of Tordesillas.〔Davenport & Paullin (1917/ repr. 2004), 84.〕
