November 1134 CE

Guy had been forced to pay three thousand maravedíes to free himself, according to the contemporary Chronica Adefonsi imperatoris (I, §59), but according to another contemporary source, William of Malmesbury, he had been liberated by the miraculous intercession of the Virgin Mary and Saint Ann, to whom he had been praying.

This is an early connection between Marian devotion and the Reconquista.
