Abánades

During the 10th century Abánades, already sufficiently developed, was located in a large area known as the Barusa, the upper limit of Al-Andalus, i.e. the border with the Northern Christian kingdoms. The Kingdom of León, which already had with its small independent county called Castile, and the Kingdom of Navarre, bordered Barusa. This area was of importance from the times of the Arab settlement in the Peninsula, because of the city of Medina Selim, Medinaceli. General Tarik had, in 712 reached Zaragoza with his Arab troops, after defeating the Visigoth King Roderic in Guadalete, and founded a medina - city - there on the ruins of the Roman city, abandoned during the later Empire.
