From January-May 2014, Casa Árabe and the “Sísifo” Research Group of the Archeology Department at the University of Cordoba are organizing the series “Qurtuba / Al-Andalus” within the framework of the citizen program titled We Are All Archeology.
The objective is to give people a closer look at the city’s Arab and Islamic archeological heritage, with the awareness that only if the people perceive and understand what Archeology represents will they learn to respect, care for and protect it.
