THE FORGOTTEN HISTORY
OF THE ALMORAVIDS
_
Almoravids were a fanatical group of islamized West Africans from deep within the Senegal river, who gone up to the Iberian peninsula took over the lands of the Visigoths, an European tribe that was in what became Spain
#DiscoverAfrica
African Moors introduced learning and civilization in Spain. The Moors began invading Spain around 711 AD when an African army, under leader Tariq ibn-Ziyad, crossed the Strait of Gibraltar from North Africa invading the Iberian peninsula ‘Andalus’ (Spain under Visigoths).

Alaric, king of the Visigoths, died of fever just a few months after sacking Rome in 410. The Busento river in Calabria was diverted so he could be buried in the riverbed with a haul of magnificent treasures looted from Rome. Alaric and his treasure have still not been found..
