You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Peter''' (((lang|la|Petrus)), ((lang-es|Pedro)); died 730) was the [[Duke of Cantabria]]. While various writers have attempted to name his parentage, (for example, making him son or brother of King [[Erwig]]), early sources say nothing more specific than the chronicle of 'Pseudo-Alfonso': that he was ((lang|la|"ex semine Leuvigildi et Reccaredi progenitus")) (descended from the bloodline of [[Liuvigild]] and [[Reccared I]]), and even this has been challenged as a possible politically-motivated fiction created to support his descendants' later claim to exclusive kingship. He was the father of King [[Alfonso I of Asturias|Alfonso I]] and of [[Fruela of Cantabria]], father of Kings [[Aurelius of Asturias|Aurelius]] and [[Bermudo I of Asturias|Bermudo I]].

According to the Muslim chroniclers((who|date=January 2021)), in the year 714, [[Musa ibn Nusair]] sacked [[Amaya, Spain|Amaya]], capital of [[Cantabria]], for the second time after [[Tariq ibn Ziyad|Tariq]] did the year before. Peter, the provincial ''dux'', led his people into refuge in the mountains, and after the local noble [[Pelayo of Asturias]] (((lang|la|Pelagius))) started a rebellion against the Berber garrison, which they had managed to establish over the mountain passes in neighbor Asturias, Dux Peter and other western Galician nobles supported the election of Alfonso as new King or ''Princeps'' to lead against the common enemy. Other scholars have said, that Pelayo may have been a Cantabrian relative, defending the western access to the Duchy through his own county seat, as that part of the modern province of Asturias was part then of the Cantabrian duchy and the Cantabria of classic Latin record. At any rate, Cantabria and the rest of what would be called Asturias merged as one realm. After the [[Battle of Covadonga]], in which Pelayo avoided defeat by the larger invading force, and managed to dislodge its governor [[Munuza]] altogether from Asturias, it seems likely that Peter sent his son to the court of Pelayo at [[Cangas de Onís]]. It had been a [[Visigothic]] practice to send noble children to the royal court, this was thus a tacit admission of Pelayo's regality. According to the [[Codex Vigilanus|Crónica Albeldense]], the territories of the two leaders were united by marriage between Peter's son Alfonso and Pelayo's daughter Ermesinda:<ref>((cite book |last1=Reilly |first1=Bernard F. |title=The Medieval Spains |date=1993 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=0-521-39436-8 |page=75 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=NdJjn1HpSy4C&pg=PA75 |access-date=February 7, 2024))</ref>

:((lang|la|Adefonsus, Pelagi gener, reg. an. XVIIII. Iste Petri Cantabriae ducis filius fuit; et dum Asturias venir Ermesindam Pelagii filiam Pelagio proecipiente, accepit.))

Alfonso later succeeded to the Asturian throne and was the first to use the title of king. While [[Al-Andalus|Iberian Muslim]] scholars would call his descendants the Beni Alfons (((Lang-ar|'''بن&nbsp;إذفنش''')) (''Beni Iḍfunš'')) after his son, they are more commonly referred to as the [[Astur-Leonese dynasty]].
