"Improved Islamic astrolabes were introduced to the West with the spread of Islam in Southern Europe from the tenth century on. “Abū Ishāq Ibrāhīm al-Zarqālī (Arzachel) of Al-Andalus constructed the first universal astrolabe instrument which, unlike its predecessors, did not depend on the latitude of the observer, and could be used from anywhere on the Earth. This instrument became known in Europe as the Saphaea. The astrolabe was introduced to other parts of Western Europe via Al-Andalus in the 11th century" www.geog.ucsb.edu/events/department-news/669/the-astrolab...
