Translation In the time of this man in era 718 [680 CE], in the seventh year of his rule, and the sixty-second of the Arabs, as Abdella and Maroan were beginning to fight against each other for the kingdom, Ervigius was crowned king of the Goths. He ruled for seven years. In his time harsh famine ravaged Spania. This man in his first year mostly splendidly held the twelfth Toletanian council in era 719 consisting of thirty-five bishops with innumerable clergy and the college of Christian monks. In this time already the bishop Iulianus, having come from a line of Jews like a flower of roses from amid thorn-bushes, was pre-eminent in all parts of the world concerning the doctrine of Christ. He indeed, born from Christian parents was educated splendidly in all prudence in Toletum, where he later became ordained as a bishop. (Al-Tamimi, trans., “The Mozarabic Chronicle”, 2019)
Summary Here the chronicle recounts the fighting between Abdullah bin al-Zubayr and Marwan I, the reign of Erwig over the Goths, and the twelfth council of Toledo in 681.
