 Saracen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the English rugby union team, see Saracens F.C. The term Saracen comes from Greek sarakenoi, which is itself derived from an Arabic word, شرقيين sharqiyyin ("easterners").
In older Western historical literature, the term "Saracen Empire" was often used to refer to the Arab Caliphate under the rule of the Umayyad and Abbasid dynasties.
After the rise of Islam, and especially at the time of the Crusades, its usage was extended to all Muslims, particularly those in Sicily and southern Italy.
