Abstract

This article compiles and analyzes the texts from late 9th to early 11th Century in the Christian Spain. The characteristics of these texts are studied by examining their common aspects and then the peculiarities of each document, which allow us to understand how they express the admiration toward a building by referring to its masonry. On the other hand, apart from the reconfirmed extraordinariness of Asturian Chronicles, it is also learned that the laconism of these texts vividly reflect the social reality in which there were no strong power structures exiting such as Umayyad Caliphate of Cordoba or Cluny.
