Abstract
In 1637 the historian Diego de Colmenares included in his Historia de la insigne ciudad de the celebration in 1303 of a diocesan synod in the cathedral of Segovia by the bishop Fernando Sarracin. From the mentioned book, the existence of this synod was publishing till now in historical studies and documentary repertoires. The aim of this article is to demonstrate that the synod of 1303 was never celebrated and its existence is just a wrong elucidation of Colmenares, and it has not been absolutely explained till now.
Highlights
'^'Se trataría del tínico error de este tipo detectado en la obra del historiador segoviano, pues aunque los autores del "Synodicon" {op. cit., p. 474) recogen la cita por Colmenares de un sínodo en Turégano en 1473 que, probablemente, se trate de nuevo de un decreto episcopal, conviene señalar que las dudas sobre la celebración o no de este sínodo de 1473, que mantienen los mismos autores del "Synodicon", motivaron que el historiador segoviano decidiera no incluir ninguna noticia del mismo en la versión impresa de su obra, siendo conocida su hipótesis, por otro lado razonable, a través de las notas extractadas de sus borradores en la edición de 196970, 11, p. 102, nota 45; y p. 146, nota 9

Summary
Finalmente, como ya se ha mencionado, esta noticia fue incluida directamente desde Colmenares en el "Synodicon Hispanum" donde sus autores expresaban la salvedad de que, a falta del texto original, las noticias recogidas por el historiador segoviano parecían hacer referencia no a un sínodo sino a unas constituciones capitulares^.
