 Arab sources in Al-Andalus report in 778 a ""Jimeno, the strong"", calling him ""Mothmin al-Akra"".He was a Basque or Hispanic magnate in the upper Ebro territories within the later independent principality of Navarre.This person was possibly related to others near Pamplona in local opposition to both the invading Franks under Charlemagne and the new ruler of the Islamic Iberian realm, Abd al-Rahman I.
