Abstract	El retablo de santo Domingo de Guzman procedente de Tamarite de Litera es uno de los ciclos mas antiguos dedicados a este santo y a la vez uno de los mas complejos y desconocidos. Aproximadamente un siglo despues que los dominicos permitieran la representacion de sus santos miembros para impulsar su culto y a la vez su Orden se realizo este complejo ciclo dedicado a su fundador. La documentacion recogida y una clave de boveda conservada "in situ" me han permitido localizar la capilla dedicada a santo Domingo en la colegiata de Tamarite de Litera donde probablemente se encontraba este retablo hasta ser sustituido y trasladado a la sacristia de la iglesia de san Miguel de la misma poblacion donde fue encontrado. Patrocinado por alguno de los miembros de la familia Entenca, como indica uno de los escudos de su marco, fue realizado en el segundo tercio del siglo XIV segun la comparacion estilistica con otras obras de su entorno y el graffiti realizado en la figura central. Contiene algunas escenas unicas en su genero solo explicables por la intervencion de un teologo que conocia perfectamente la vida de este Santo y probablemente algun manuscrito italiano que le sirvio de modelo. English The altarpiece of Saint Dominic of Guzman from Tamarite de Litera is one of the oldest cycles dedicated to this saint and at the same time one of the most complex and unknown. About a century after Dominics had allowed to represent their patron saints for stimulating their worship and their Order, it was made this complex cycle dedicated to their founder. The documentation collected and a boss preserved "in situ" has permitted me to locate saint Dominics chapel in the collegiate church of Tamarite de Litera where probably had been shown this altarpiece until it was replaced and moved to the sacristy of san Michel's church from the same village where it was found. It was sponsored for some member of the Entenca's family, as it indicates one of the coats of arms that appears in its frame, it was made during the second third of XIV century, according to the comparison with other works of their environment and the graffiti made on the central figure. It contains some unique scenes in their type which only can be explained by the intervention of a theologian who knew the life of this Saint perfectly and probably some Italian manuscript which he used as a pattern.
