Abstract

An inhabitant in the farmhouse of Mondujar, called Mahomad Abencaxon, in 1440, donated half a night of water to the land of the mosque in Acequias, a small site in the Valley of Lecrin. The church got these habices goods after the conquest of Muslim territories and several years afterward lawsuits about these rights ensued. In one of them, some water was stolen by several inhabitants of Acequias from Juan Maldonado Hafiz, who had rented the land. He reported the theft to authorities of the Valley of Lecrin. The case was brought to the justice of Granada where the inhabitants of Acequias were condemned. Evidence presented by witnesses allows us to collect relevant information on the Muslim past of this region in the kingdom of Granada.
