My AME suggests something close to 15C Italians in armour and dress for Spanish 15C infantry, IIRC, but I may be wrong. So Mirliton again 
Venexia's Italian Wars may be appropriate too:

Hello, "Santa Hermandad Nueva"(New Holy Brotherhood) is the name of the Castilian professional militia system during the final parts of the spanish "reconquista" and the direct ancestor of what later would be the Spanish "Tercios" .mbsparta wrote:............
