Abstract

The municipal taxes are going to be consolidated in Barcelona in the 14th century; one of the most important taxes in the city was the meat consumption tax. This tax was contributing to the municipal exchequer with a lot of money. The evolution of the tax will have a lot of importance on the meat market of Barcelona, because his impact on the prices was very strong. The joint study of the tax and the meat market in Barcelona can help us to see the evolution of a short distance market; this is specially interesting because it is a market very linked with the territory.
