Un mar de arena, un mar de estrellas y un mar para navegar: árabes y navegación
Keywords:
arabic navigation, astronomy, nautical instrumentsAbstract
The desert, the sky and the sea are three open spaces (mayd×n) that share navigation strategies. First, we explore the relationship of the Arabs of the pre-Islamic and early Islamic eras with the sea, and then describe some of the advances in astronomy made during the Abbasid Caliphate in Baghdad, which had an important bearing on later developments in the nautical field.
