Granada is almost twice that Nuremberg and in its surrounding mountains, even in the hottest days of the year, abundant snow, its inhabitants used to cool the wine. The city of Granada is just a dozen miles from the Mediterranean. You can, therefore, to arrive to Africa in three days, and four others can reach the western boundary of the world. In the past, belonged to the Moorish Granada, had two kings during the wars of his later years and six years was besieged by King Ferdinand, whose army built to their doors to the small town dede Santa Fe, and whose wife, Isabel , conquered the seventh year for our faith sacrosanct. Continue: [b]half the population are white Moors, whose wives and daughters wear white pants sailor pants (almost identical to those used by shepherds in Germany),[/b](la mitad de la población son moros blancos, cuyas mujeres e hijas visten blancos pantalones de marinero calzones (casi idénticos a los que en Alemania usan los pastores) and also wear clothing that also white cover from the face to the calves, but, more importantly, they cover their faces. In order to be allowed to freely use this kind of attire, each must pay an annual tax to the emperor of a duchy. Those who do not want to enter the church on Sundays have to pay the priest a year real. Also in the hillsides of the city there are still deep caves to visit, in which a contingent of Christian captives (including a bishop) were locked at night and which are rented by day to make us work in all sorts of crafts. And were: the aforementioned city reconquered the day of San Juan and for this reason every year the nobles and bourgeois dress up that day of Moors and Turks bearing shields and spears and celebrate a kind of burlesque profession that runs throughout the city at dawn . Later in broad daylight and held a mock victory. There is loose then, six or seven bulls in the market place for people to run and the sugar. Following comes the cavalry followed, dressed in costumes Moors and Turks, divided into two camps. They shoot each other complex and large muskets, loaded only with gunpowder saved, be pursued in all directions, pretending great surprises, now advancing, now receding and graceful attitudes adopted in the meantime. We saw on the feast of San Juan Bautista and the Emperor himself participated in these games in Granada, in the presence of the Empress and a host of Portuguese bridesmaids. That same day three men were fatally injured by the bulls, and an old horse, wounded accidentally shot in the head, had to be finished there. He continues: they are forbidden to those mentioned Moors (with severe penalties) the use of weapons, both in the field, and their houses, except a small knife to cut bread and another to puncture the meat (do not eat meat hunting and all that consumed comes from animals caged, tied enclosed in fences). And to this end the judges will make their home record twice a month. Also, on our last day of stay in Granada invited the emperor to preside over my Lord with him, in a garden at the foot of the hill of the Alhambra, a Moorish show. Adorned with beautiful pearls and precious stones in necks, ears and arms, and dressed (almost as deacons for the Mass) according to the customs of his land, danced to the sound of flutes, violas and drums, after which three women fifty years and another that fell was about forty and sang while alive and amazing pagan rhythms, while the others clapped rhythmic shouting happily. After the dance, some berries climbed to the top of the hill and danced on a tightrope stretched between two locations, and then opened her legs with a brazen, as he faces the Emperor, screaming in his native tongue: "Everyone who live here can get to heaven. " After this performance was given to drinking water. Also: young women with henna Castilla berries get their nails with a bright orange (they figure) gives a special attraction. In my opinion makes them resemble our miserable tanning is Nuremberg. Also considered shameful for a girl to take even one sip of wine. Therefore, all of water.In drink that city of Granada make all kinds of silk garments, but always black, indelible ink for lack of other colors and are slightly more expensive than in Germany, with the notable exception of Taffeta double, which here is very beautiful. Pearls are also cheap here. There are also magnificent vineyards and a large winery near the walls of the city. At first, there was no place either in the palace to house the secret of my lord, and for two days we got to sleep on the floor, then the Moors rented white mats, which they demanded a deposit of 15 ducats. We stayed two weeks in Granada and the July 7, thank God, we continue our journey joyfully. Another detail: The Emperor's Palace was built by the Moors in the Alhambra hill, within the precincts of the city, and inside you can still see the curious and splendid bathrooms in the Moorish king who bathed with their wives, few of those who had all he wanted: he wanted to but after a bath, sent him an apple. The water that runs through all the aforementioned palace (which is also a fish pond) also flows through almost all the other houses of the city. The water is unhealthy, and if you drink is easy to get sick from dysentery, but there was no other kind of water, nor wells. " Dr. Johannes Lange. Journal, 1526[/i] http://www.andalucia.cc/adn/0199nar.htm If Moors looked like this.. [IMG]http://s3.noelshack.com/uploads/images/21109046854203_119.gif[/IMG] Why would he make the effort to say the half the Population was [b]"WHITE"[/b] Moors. Why not just call them Moors if Whites were the original Moors..??and What/who were the other Moors, Makes no damn sense.. [/qb][/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
