	The Martyrs of Córdoba were at least forty-eight Christian martyrs living in Muslim-ruled Al-Andalus (now southern Spain). Their executions took place between 850 and 859; with a few exceptions, they invited execution by making public statements to invite martyrdom: some martyrs appeared before the Muslim authorities to denounce Muhammad; some were children of Muslim-Christian marriages and publicly proclaimed their Christianity as apostates (Coope 1995). Of them, only Eulogius left a manuscript detailing the killings.		The Martyrs of Córdoba were at least forty-eight Christian martyrs living in Muslim-ruled Al-Andalus (now southern Spain).
