Mudéjar (/muːˈdeɪhɑːr/, also US: /-ˈðɛh-, -ˈðɛx-/, Spanish: [muˈðexaɾ], Catalan: mudèjar [muˈðɛʒəɾ]; from Arabic: مدجن‎, romanized: mudajjan, lit. 'subjugated; tamed; domesticated') refers to the group of Muslims who remained in Iberia in the late medieval period despite the Christian reconquest. It is also a term for Mudejar art, which was much influenced by Islamic art, but produced typically by Christian craftsmen for Christian patrons.
