 Mundane History
Especially characteristic were the long-range cavalry incursions (cabalgadas, correduras) of fast-moving raiders and the larger invasions or penetrations (entradas, algaras) of horsemen (caballeros, jinetes), infantry (peones), and archers under the banner of free-lance nobles, frontier officials, frontier towns, or, when the king himself led the campaign, the full royal host (hueste) of the kingdom.
Although the years 1150-1177 had seen the Moslems recover Almeria and upper Andalusia, halt Portuguese penetration of Alentejo and Extremadura, invade Castile as far as Huete, and launch scores of destructive raids in all directions, this had slowed, but in no sense reversed, the insistent southern encroachments of the Christians.
Alfonso VIII, unwisely failing to wait as planned for the arrival of Alfonso IX and the Leonese army, hastened south to engage the enemy as soon as possible.

Despite 'Abbadid support of Ibn Tashufin at the Battle of Az-Zallaqah in 1086, Ibn Tashufin later turned against his ally and besieged Seville; the city was betrayed by Almoravid sympathizers in 1091 after a heroic defense by al-Mu'tamid.
The 'Abbadids' position was weakened, however, by an outbreak of hostilities with the Castilian king Alfonso VI; Christian progress in Aragon and Valencia and the fall of Toledo (1085), together with pressure from religious enthusiasts at home, forced al-Mu'tamid to seek an alliance with Yusuf ibn Tashufin of the Almoravid dynasty.
With the exile of al-Mu'tamid and his family to Morocco began the ascendency in Spain of the Almoravids.
