José Martínez Ahumada

José Isaac Martínez Ahumada (; 19 September 1936 – 18 December 2015), known as Limeño , was a Spanish bullfighter from Andalusia whose heyday was in the 1960s. Three of his brothers, Juan Luís, Antonio, and Miguel Ángel, also went into tauromachy, although they never rose above the level of novillero sin picadores. His paternal grandfather was the caretaker there.

Bullfighting career Martínez had his presentation at Las Ventas in Madrid on 12 July 1959, alternating with fellow novilleros Adolfo Aparicio and José Álvarez, alongside whom he fought bulls supplied by the Don Higinio Luis Severino ranch. He had quite a successful day, not only reaping two ears from the bulls that he slew (not both from the same bull, however), but also being borne out through the Great Gate.

Only in 1969 did Martínez come back to Pamplona, this time for two corridas on the occasion of the Festival of San Fermín. On 7 July that year, he appeared alongside Paquirri and Ángel Teruel as they faced bulls from the Antonio Martínez Elizondo ranch. The two other bullfighters cut their share of ears, while Martínez got applause for the to bulls that he slew. Six days later, Martínez once again appeared in Pamplona, this time facing an encierro of José Luis Osborne bulls. He slew the first (applause) and fourth (respectful silence). Church in Sanlúcar de Barrameda where Martínez's funeral was held. Martínez died at his home on 18 December 2015 in the same town where he had been born, Sanlúcar de Barrameda in the Province of Cádiz. He was 79 years old, and had been fighting cancer for several months. Martínez went to this church to pray to the patron saint of Charity.

Despite the great number of people who came to Martínez's funeral, no funerary chapel was set up beforehand for mourners to pay their respects in the days leading up to the actual church service, and no procession bore his coffin shoulder-high for one last lap round the fighting ground inside the town's bullring.

Tributes A bust of Martínez is to be found outside the bullring in his hometown, Sanlúcar de Barrameda. It was unveiled in 1985, in time to mark 25 years since he had taken his alternativa.
