Abstract

Bestiality was one of the hardest sexual practices pursued during the Old Regime by the civil and ecclesiastical authorities. This crime has left us in Navarre rich testimonies as legal proceedings were settled before the Royal Courts. With this documentation we know not only the inside story of this kind of behavior and legal repression but also social and cultural conception of such habits in the society of the time.
