Saracen
Saracens (sarr-Ə-sən) were Arab Muslims during the Middle Ages.
In the early centuries of the Common Era, Greek and Latin writings used the term to talk about the people who lived in desert areas in and near the Roman province of Arabia Petraea, and in Arabia Deserta.[1][2][3]
The oldest known source mentioning Saracen dates to the 7th century.[4]
