Original Note:
Historians no longer call it the "dark ages", although the Moors played a role in advancing progress through exchange of knowledge, they did not start the Renaissance, nor are they depicted in this video. Most pictures show Christian Saints or are post-Moors. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-myth-of-the-dark-ages-ignores-how-classical-traditions-flourished-around-the-world-180982190/ https://www.getty.edu/news/no-such-thing-as-the-dark-ages/ https://www.discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/just-how-dark-were-the-dark-ages https://talesoftimesforgotten.com/2019/05/25/debunking-the-so-called-dark-ages/ https://www.europeana.eu/en/blog/the-not-so-dark-middle-ages https://www.historytoday.com/back-dark-ages https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Maurice https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_Magi
