I think not. Learning did not begin until the completion of the Iberian Reconquista in 1492 and the vast libraries of the Moors were discovered and translated from the Arabic into Latin.<br /><br />".......Note to self- must buy moustache wax......"<br />I think you wouldn't be amiss ifin' y'all gots yourself a nice revitalising cream too. Those bags under your eyes are concerning.

He, of course, being Catholic has taken a vow of poverty which accounts for his grace-and-favour palace and the gold robes and regalia he is frequently seen in.<br /><br />Welsh is also a dead language but a much harder place to get to from the fjords, of course. Westminster therefore seems a much easier target...Dioclesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08139646438543954337noreply@blogger.com
