Converted Muslims were referred to as "moriscos", "moors" -- repurposing an old word originally applied to the Roman province of "Mauretania", including today's Morocco and parts of Spain and Algeria, referring at that time primarily to Berber tribes and in the early middle ages used by xtians to refer to Muslims of the Maghreb and southern Europe. Muslims in Iberia after the xtian conquest of Al-Andalus were briefly called Mudéjar and allowed open practice of Islam, but by 1499 the archbishop of Toledo began forcing conversion of Muslims in Granada. This spread to the other xtian monarchies.
