Since Euclid, it has been contemplated that the average and extreme ratio, known as the golden ratio or divine proportion according to Luca Pacioli, is the ultimate canon of beauty. Numerous studies have been conducted in an attempt to support this thesis. However, in the latter half of the 20th century, a new study emerged to confirm that in the city of Córdoba, a previously unknown proportion dominated, which had not been studied in either art or architecture. Rafael de la Hoz, the architect responsible for this discovery, referred to it as the Cordovan proportion or Human Proportion. Once discovered, it became evident that it was not a peculiarity unique to this Andalusian city, but rather, a canon of beauty that has been used on numerous occasions, albeit not explicitly acknowledged as such.
