We consider that the ambassador's accusation was not an insult because it referred to a form of justice that existed in the Byzantine empire.

<h3>What is mutilation?</h3>

Mutilation is a term that refers to the action of violently cutting or tearing a limb or part of the body from a living being.

<h3>How did mutilation work in the Byzantine Empire?</h3>

Mutilation in the Byzantine Empire was a common method of punishment for criminals. On the other hand, it was also used by the emperor to marginalize political rivals because it was not allowed to have an emperor with missing body parts, so a mutilation completely removed him from the list of eligible to succeed the throne.

According to the above, it can be inferred that the accusation that in the Byzantine Empire they mutilated their captives was not an insult because it was a common practice that was not taboo at that time.

How were the actions of the Spanish in direct contrast to the teachings of the<br> Catholic Church?
Tcecarenko [31]
The Catholic Church in Spain has a long history, starting in the 1st century. It is the largest religion in Spain, with 68% of Spaniards identifying as Catholic.[1]

Attempts were made from the late 1st century to the late 3rd century to establish the church in the Iberian peninsula. Canons of the Synod of Elvira (circa 305 AD) indicate that the church was greatly isolated from the general population even at that time. The situation of the Christians in Iberia improved with the advent of the Edict of Milan in 313 AD, after which Christians were more or less free to practice their religion openly within the Roman Empire. Over the course of the 4th century, the church built significant footholds particularly around Seville, Cordoba and Toledo.
