One of the main changes in European Renaissance mathematics was the progressive development of algebra from practical arithmetic, in which equations and operations began to be written with abbreviations and symbols, rather than in the rhetorical way found in earlier arithmetical texts. In Spain, the introduction of algebraic procedures was mainly achieved through certain commercial or arithmetical texts, in which a section was devoted to algebra or the ‘Arte Mayor’. This paper deals with the contents of the first arithmetical texts containing sections on algebra. These allow us to determine how algebraic ideas were introduced into Spain and what their main sources were. The first printed arithmetical Spanish text containing algebra was the Libro primero de Arithmetica Algebratica (1552) by Marco Aurel. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to analyse the possible sources of this book and show the major influence of the German text Coss (1525) by Christoff Rudolff, on Aurel's work.
