COVADONGA 722: Pelagius the Visigoth vs Umayyad Caliphate
by Garcia, Eladio
1-666147
The Battle of Covadonga took place in 718 or 722 between the army of Pelagius the Visigoth and the army of the Umayyad Caliphate. Fought near Covadonga in the Picos de Europa, either in 718 or 722, it resulted in a victory for the forces of Pelagius. It is traditionally regarded as the foundational event of the Kingdom of Asturias and thus the initial point of the Christian Reconquista (reconquest) of Spain after the Umayyad conquest of 711.
