She [Katharine of Aragon] had slaves, too. One appeared in the 1491 accounts, with three lengths of woollen cloth ordered up to clothe her. A slave from the recently colonised Canary Islands, probably a native Guanche, needed dressing the following year. Slaves were by no means uncommon in fifteenth-century Spain. The Flemish illustrator Christoph Weiditz, visiting Spain two decades later, drew pictures of Moorish slaves with iron chains attached to their waists and legs. Two slave girls, including a Moorish girl known as Catalina, would eventually accompany Catherine to England. The slave girl Catalina, in fact, became such a close part of her world that she would be treated as a vital eyewitness to later events in Catherine’s life.

On enslaved persons in the household of Katharine of Aragon, including Catalina of Motril.

(ABOUT ME) ── Nauzet / Viktor. About me.

Love to talk but may sound blunt as i am autistic. hEDS + GERD + multiple neurodivergences. I follow back most of the time. I call myself the f-slur a lot. If it triggers you, protect your peace. Do not tag my posts as "q-slur".

I am an adult with a job and zero patience for shipcourse. I don't care what you ship as long as it isn't abuse, incest, or queer erasure. Do your thing, but don't call me an anti. I just do not care that much.

Monogamous ( @loveyour-zombies <3). Absolutely zero interest in anyone else.

Chaxiraxi was the sun mother goddess of the Guanche (Canary Islands) people during the Middle Ages. Her name "Chaxiraxi" means "the one who carries the one who has the world." She is often pictured as a mother, carrying her child, the personification of the sun. [x]

Statue of Our Lady of Candelaria, a later version of Chaxirixi, merged with the Virgin Mary.

Some researchers have connected her to the earlier worship of "the Southern Star" in Guanche culture, in which they revered Canopo as the principal star of the sky; the oldest, the mother of all stars. [x]
