> I wonder if the head jewelry is what evolved from the French hood. It's entirely possible it's related to the billments seen on the edge of a french hood. I haven't noted how early it appear in Spain as the arrangement also appears over there. Maria of Austria has a similar arrangement but is worn over a style of headdress peculiar to the region and time.
