Narrative

[large-G675.FTW]

It may look like Zaida married her brother from this data! This is because of
a conflict between sources on who she was. Sources in Morocco are convinced
she was the daughter of the Emir. They claim that the Christians in Spain
removed and altered records that indicated a Muslim ancestory for their Royal
houses. The Emir was exiled in Morocco after being expelled from Spain, and it
is claimed records from this time are still in Morocco. I leave it for future
scholars to investigate. Others say she did not mother any children by Alfonso
