Cordoba is a city in Andalusia, southern Spain, and the capital of the province of Cordoba. Today a moderately-sized modern city.
The first trace of human presence in the area are remains of a Neanderthal Man. In the 8th century BC, during the ancient Tartessos period, a pre-urban settlement existed. The first historical mention of a settlement dates however to the Carthaginian expansion across the Guadalquivir.
Cordoba was conquered by the Romans in 206 BC. Cordoba was the capital of the Roman province of Hispania Ulterior Baetica. It was captured in 711 by a Muslim army: in 716 it became a provincial capital, depending from the Caliphate of Damascus. In May 766, it was elected as capital of the independent Muslim emirate of al-Andalus, later a Caliphate itself.
On 29 June 1236, it was captured by King Ferdinand III of Castile, during the Spanish Reconquista.
With one of the most extensive historical heritages in the world (declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO 17 December 1984), the city also features a number of modern areas, including the districts of Zoco and the railway station district.
