In the medieval Iberian Peninsula coexisted people of three religions and three different cultures: Muslims (Moors), Christians and Jews. The Muslims and the Christians lived generally  in two separated territories . The Jews lived in the cities of the Muslims and those of the Christians. These three great cultural traditions were different branches of the great Mediterranean trunk: allowing  the creation and development of a brilliant and peculiar civilization.

The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear
I’ve seen that road before
It always leads me here
Lead me to your door.  (the Beatles)
