The Andalusia-Extremadura Column[1] was a confederal militia composed of anarchist militants and workers that participated in the Spanish Civil War, on the fronts of Córdoba and Jáen. Its organization began in Bujalance at the end of September 1936 after the Republicans lost the towns of Castro del Río and Espejo.[2]
