Rodrigo died 873 was the first count of Castile , reigning from about 850 to his death. Some Al Andalus Iberian Muslim writers refer to a brother or brother in law of Ordo o I of Asturias Ordo o I , while others assign the same role to a Ruderick without stating a relationship, and the references have been interpreted as referring to the same man. This has been used by authors such as Fern ndez de B thencourt, writing in 1897, to suggest that count Rodrigo was a son of Ramiro I of Asturias and his supposed second wife, Urraca Paterna actually just Paterna, Urraca being the wife of a later prince Ramiro and half brother of Ordo o, but Barrau Dihago dismissed this interpretation for want of evidence. He was created governor of the eastern march marca oriental of the realm, which later became the county of Castile, by Ordo o, possibly upon the latter s assumption of the crown. He took part in Ordo o s Repoblaci n , repopulating Amaya in 860. He was at the side of the king in many battles of the Reconquista , including the siege and sack of Albelda in 859. In 863, the brother of Ordo o fought Muslim troops, and in 865 Rodrigo was defeated magnificently at Bureba by the troops of the emir of C rdoba , resulting in the sacking of his castles and those of other noblemen in Castile, which brought to a temporary halt the process of reconquest and repopulation of the area.

Following the Crusades, production of this soap was extended to the whole Mediterranean area. The first European soap making factories were created in the 12th century in Spain Alicante, Malaga, Carthagene and Castile and in Italy Naples, Savone, Genoa, Bologna and Venice and then, in the middle of the 15th century, in Marseille France, giving birth to Marseille soap . ref http www.syriahandmade.com galleries soap text soap 1.htm .
