It depends what you term Spanish. Languages evolve by slow changes that go from dialect to dialect. Modern Castilian (the version of Spanish that we are familiar with) only exists in the exact form that we are familiar with today for 200 years or so. Prior to that, the language was more or less the same, but some words were spelled differently (yerba vs. hierba) and some of the grammar was different. This goes back to the late 1400s. From the mid-1300s to the late 1400s, the Castilian was more different and such documents like Don Quixote attest to unique words that no longer exist and grammatical structures that differ from today's. Prior to this you have versions of the language which are increasingly closer to Hispanic Latin.
The people who spoke Castilian in the late 1400s were the peoples of Iberia, specifically those of Castilla, which is the central region of Spain (as opposed to eastern Spain or western Spain and Portugal).
