a weird little fact-oid

 

The symbol found all around Sevilla - on news kiosks, sewer covers, the tops of bollards found  along the narrow streets demarcating the sidewalks. All kinds of things. People frequently want to know about the NO8DO..

"The resulting word is read as a whole as “no-madeja-do” (“it has not left me”), which is interpreted as a phrase put into the mouth of an old Alfonso, expressing his gratitude to Seville for it’s loyalty. The city didn’t abandon him even in the worst circumstances and in the last years of his life."

Honestly I don't find a lot of clarity in that but....there you go.
