Phillip and Jeremy Musa by Jeremy Urban https://padlet.com/85996/ec1ne0jxxyn8 13/14 en-us 2016-09-21 17:07:05 UTC 2026-02-24 18:54:05 UTC hello@padlet.com Document B Questions 1,2,3 85996 https://padlet.com/85996/ec1ne0jxxyn8/wish/125493981 1.)  This is a secondary source. Abraham Cresques was the creator of this document. In 1375 A.D., this document was created.
2.)  The Catalan Post does match up with the blog post by showing how rich Musa is. The map shows Musa with many mosque on the side of him. The article talks about how he had multiple mosques in his kingdom. 
3.) This is not an accurate document. The reason why is because Abraham has never been to Africa. Abraham made the map only on stories he heard.

Al-Umari was a historian that was Arabian around the time of 1324 A.D. He was also from Damascus, Syria. We think that Al-Umari is a reliable source.  The reason why is because the people during this time saw Musa and they could have more realistic information.
2.) This document does compare with the blog by both talking about how much gold he had during this time. This document says he had gold with him. The blog talks about how the price of gold went down.
3.)  The emir Abu described Musa as wealthy. He talks about how he flooded the city with gold and how no emir or holder didn’t receive any.  Mesa has the traits of power and generosity to the people. 
4.)  I think that the Al-Umar was accurate in his description. The reason why is because he includes facts that could be used to support. This is also from a person that saw Musa face to face.
