ABSTRACT
Andalusi christians continued to seek martyrdom , although now they hadno Eulogius to commemorate them. All the later martyrs died in Cordoba. Scholars have dismissed them as no more than a footnote to the protest of the 850s, assuming that they were a response to the earlier deaths. Yet there are no obvious links. Aimoin ofSt-Germain, the author of an account of the translation of the relics of George , Aurelius and Nathalia [Eulogius called her Sabigotho] to Paris, noted that Mancio, the envoy sent by Charles the Bald to investigate these martyrs, witnessed the executions of two sisters." After this, no martyrs were recorded until the tenth century. When the impuls e to martyrdom was reawakened, it was as a series of individual gestures. The evidence for these martyrs is sparse and difficult to interpret, and must be gathered from a variety of sources, both Latin and Arabic.
