Dear members,

BOOK JUST PUBLISHED.

Los precintos de la conquista Omeya y la formacion de al-Andalus (711-756)

                                     by Philippe Senac . Tawfiq Ibrahim

"The seals  of the Umayyad conquest and the formation of al-Andalus.
(711-756)"

This is the first corpus of the known lead seals, to date, covering the
periods of the Umayyad conquest and its governors in al-Andalus, (ca 711 to
756).

It combines those found in the Iberian Peninsula and those of the Narbone
area.

A total of 141 lead elements  with arabic text covering many diverse
typologies: seals of  known governors, Al-Hurr, Al-Samh, 'Ambada b. Sukhaim,
ect./ those of peace treaties, sulkh & musalakha  with various cities names,
Seville, Badja, Libira,Ukshuniya(Faro), Sidonia, Cordoba and regions like
ard Djayan(land of Jaen!) / poll tax 'ahl' seals of djizya  with city names/
seals  of allotment, qism,maqsum, qad qusim /  "fay Allah" seals of the 1/5
one Rayya( Malaga)/  seals of booty  redistribution, maghnum / one possible
"djund" area a seal Hums(Seville)/ seals of licitude, djaza, djawaz / one
seal of possible feminine booty allotment kharaid ? / ect...

I would very much have liked to dedicate it to "IGNACIO OLAGUE and
 followers" but my much more serious co-author did not agree.

The original draft was written by us in French and specifically translated
to Spanish for this edition. The written contents of the actual seals are in
Arabic.

Best wishes,
