Tentudía
Although it has been described above, can say that The Legend of Tentudía is inserted into the cycle of legends of the Master of Santiago. While Correa Pelay fighting the Moors in the foothills of Sierra Morena, of Calera and Monesterio, the battle was over and the night was coming up, so the Master of Santiago, once again, came to the protection the top. "Keep your day," said said. Some say that these words were addressed to the sun, according to some, others say that the Virgin, and other than God. The truth is that on strap Pelay stopped and failed to win the battle.
THE LEGEND OF LIGHTNING
One day, possibly in the late nineteenth century, was the people gathered in the church, a Renaissance copy of such sober church-fortress, built by the Order of Santiago. While celebrating the cult, unleashed a stunning dry storm, so called because they do not end in water. The town is situated next to a castle and almost at the foot of a small mountain, is a very suitable place to attract everything type of electric shock. One of them came down that day upon the church, traveling along, from the sanctuary to the door of forgiveness, and producing in its wake a huge crack in the walls, still visible a few years ago. All left the church abruptly and it was then discovered amazed how a woman who had been sitting on the floor at the foot of the pulpit, was completely burned the veil, though she had suffered the least damage. Considering the fact as a miracle was attributed to the Christ of the Blood, venerated in the parish church, and instituted a festival, on May 4 to commemorate the miracle. This festival is continues to celebrate every year, until the present moment.
THE LEGEND OF THE VIRGIN Tentudía of Rioja (by Felix Cariñanos San Millán. Published in the newspaper "La Rioja" on November 10, 1996)
In the past there were several rites they were marking our transition from childhood to youth. One of them made the first day you go to the field let yourself riding on a horse or cattle. Another took place to send, also only by the Ebro water ("The Ebro is a traitor," repeated insistently older).
I ensued both on the same day and my father to ask what method he used to put the pot at the same time, I said pointing his right index finger toward the southern sky:
- When the sun Clavijo, fixed noon.
Many suns have seen me later visit this locality, the key to the expansion of Jacobean myth throughout Spain. If the weather is almost always be discussed with more sitting in the plaza.
- "The chapel of St. James? going to have to ask you the key to see it.
- Is there the Virgin of Tentudía? Top
- is, yes, sir, but it will not be able to see everything.
- Why? Because while we were a few kids, a year past midnight, broke into and took quite a bit, even more important, the altar table, say of merit.
Yes, a lot of other merit-sentence with an air of old art gallery director. As it was in that famous Navarrete (Navarrete understood as referring to the Mute). Look for where the thieves blindfolded Lady of Tentudía and turned against the wall.
The legend of this image goes back to the ninth century to the time of the equally legendary battle of Clavijo. This is the traditional version.
was the king of Asturias Ramiro I a brave warrior, a veteran in combat. There was less tanning Cordoba Emir Abd ar-Rahman II. May 22 that 844 of the Christian army had been losing. His troops, influenced by the Moors, had scaled the heights of Mount Laturce and stretched into the basin of Clavijo and Castle Rock. Opposite, the emir had established a huge crescent embracing the highest since Ribafrecha to the fortress. When morning came, beginning the final assault.
Ramiro That night could not sleep for several hours until he collapsed on his bed surrendered. And he dreamed, he dreamed as he had not dreamed since childhood. He saw the Apostle Santiago riding a white horse and his army behind him moving into the plains.

- Lack of time to call his son Ordoño, his brother García, General Ossorio, the Knights of Tejada and Valdeosera.
- dawn Nothing else is necessary to attack?
- Would not it be better, father, wait a few days in the old camero, rest and re-Clavijo?
- Santiago I saw us victorious and triumphant with him. Santiago and close Spain!.
shock grueling dragged throughout the morning. The afternoon wore on, none of the hosts give. Suddenly, a rallying cry Monte Laturce covered: "Santiago, Santiago!". Christians intensified the rush, but the night was crouching like a great black fox. One of the roofs approached the king
- Lord, the battle is ours, but we will not remove the root of everything.
- I see, Sancho, I see.
- There is a solution, sir, to invoke the Virgin to stop the sun and finish what we started.
Ramiro I was brave and quiet of great faith. He fixed the sword in the holy land and called the Lady
- Mother of us all: stop your day! Stop your day!.
About Monte Laturce raised his arms a woman in white dress, a gesture, the big red star struggled to be ensured over the horizon, most could not. Thus, Christians fully succeeded in the battle of Clavijo.
- What? Have you seen the Virgin of Tentudía?.
- Yes, gentlemen, I've seen.
- While you've been doing was up memory. That theft was discovered on 14 December 1912. There wedding and, as was tradition, the newlyweds and guests went to the shrine to bow to Santiago. The marriage was called Orio, Norbert Tiburcio Ruiz, he was Ocón Wheels and she's here. The shock that must have took Morrocotudo.
I have been fortunate to visit Calera de León, a badajocense village nestled in the foothills of Sierra Morena.
Nearby to 1,104 meters, is offered Tentudía monastery, named because that term is faced Moors and Christians during the competition, the Grand Master of the Order of Santiago, Pelayo Perez Correa called on the Lady: "Stop your day! ". You can worship the owner of that dedication both in the monastery and the church convent santiaguista of the villa.
Before ascending the mountain, having lost the watch in my backpack as a pilgrim, an elderly man asked:
