| Summary: |
The "oppidum" in Valladolid was a creation of Count Ansúrez, a man of great importance during the reign of Alfonso VI (1072-1109). Originally, Valladolid was a defensive bastion against the expansión of the kingdom of León. Around 1073, Count Ansúrez, on the orders of Alfonso VI, went on a mission to the land of Ziri Abd Allah, the last king of the Taifa of Granada. In his Memories, Abd Allah relates how, in order to exert pressure on him, Pedro Ansúrez built the "oppidum" of Bellido, close to the city of Granada. This fortress was later used as a model for the constuction of subsequent Spanish-Muslim fortifications. |
