Šeri in the world map of Al-Idrisi (1150). A map world dating from 1150, designed by the Moorish geographer Al-Idrisi, appears the city of Seris, the name given to the city of Jerez de la Frontera by the Moors. A curious feature of the map is that the North is at the foot of the page and the South at the top. This document describes „Xerez is a strong city, of medium extension, surrounded by walls, its surroundings are pleasant, because it is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and fig trees.” Source: The map is available under a Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike license. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/<wbr/>Kitab_Ruyar
