The miracle of the Barranco de Sangre was not of the usual healing kind. Local legend has it that after a savage battle between Europe's first Islamic guerrilla army and Spanish soldiers in the mountains of the south, a sun-baked gully now known as the Ravine of Blood witnessed a miraculous event.
With the valley awash with the gore of both sides, the blood of the Christians miraculously flowed uphill to prevent it becoming tainted by that of the Muslims.
The legend dates from the early 16th century when Spanish Catholic forces, spurred on by the Inquisition, slashed and burnt their way through the last Islamic stronghold on the Iberian peninsula.
Until now, the legends of that Islamic uprising have been little known beyond the folk memory of local people and the dusty archives of Iberia's universities.
The myth of the blood that flowed uphill is but one aspect of a vigorous popular memory of the terrible times when Spaniards felt the need to prove that they were not Muslim converts.
Even today the ostentatious slaughtering of pigs and celebration of wine are derived from the old need to show that one was not a closet Muslim.
Almost every village in the area had its legends dating from that time. Today the peaceful village of Valor with its white, Berber-style, box-shaped, wooden-beamed houses gives little hint of the area's bloody history.
But beneath the tranquil surface memories are still long. "The Moros [the pejorative word for the Moors] still say that the Alpujarras and Granada belong to them. If they could they would take them back," said Manuel Cascante, the owner of the Perdiz hostel in the village. "The problem is that it is not theirs."المرجع:
