Tradition and history link the origins of the Kingdom of Asturias with two proper names: Pelayo and Covadonga, protagonist and setting where a series of episodes took place at the beginning of the 8th century -true for some and legendary for others-, considered as the first movement of refusal of northern Christianity against the Muslim power settled in the Peninsula a few years earlier. The valley of Cangas de Onís, the Picos de Europa and Mount Auseva would have witnessed the rebellion that elected Pelayo as leader -thirteen centuries ago this year-, and which shortly after would star in the legendary war episode (battle or skirmish), on the slopes of that little mountain.
