Christian Prisoners of War, 8th Century

Christian prisoners of war. Note the similarity between the Christian captives and the Moorish foot soldiers, in contrast with the leader in his purple robes with silk and pearls. From the Cantigas de Santa Maria. The Umayyad conquest of Hispania is the initial Islamic Umayyad Caliphate's conquest, between 711 and 718, of the Christian Visigothic Kingdom of Hispania, centered in the Iberian Peninsula. After the conquest Christians were herded off into slavery along with all their livestock. The conquest was followed by a period of several hundred years during which most of the Iberian peninsula was known as the province of Al-Andalus, dominated by Muslim rulers. Only a handful of small Christian states survived in the mountainous north of the peninsula.

Descripción:
Traducción automática: Prisioneros de guerra cristianos. Nótese la similitud entre los cautivos cristianos y los soldados de infantería moros, en contraste con el líder con su túnica púrpura con seda y perlas. De las Cantigas de Santa María. La conquista omeya de Hispania es la conquista inicial del califato islámico omeya, entre 711 y 718, del reino cristiano visigodo de Hispania, centrado en la Península Ibérica. Después de la conquista, los cristianos fueron llevados a la esclavitud junto con todo su ganado. A la conquista siguió un período de varios cientos de años durante el cual la mayor parte de la península Ibérica fue conocida como la provincia de Al-Andalus, dominada por gobernantes musulmanes. Sólo un puñado de pequeños estados cristianos sobrevivieron en el norte montañoso de la península.
