Graus, Battle of

Years: 1063 - 1063

The Battle of Graus was a battle of the Reconquista, traditionally said to have taken place on May 8, 1063.

Antonio Ubieto Arteta, in his Historia de Aragón, re-dated the battle to 1069.

The late twelfth-century Chronica naierensis dates the encounter to 1070.

Either in or as a result of the battle, Ramiro I of Aragon, one of the protagonists, dies.

“The lack of a sense of history is the damnation of the modern world.”

― Robert Penn Warren, quoted by Chris Maser (1999)
