Blackamoors

Blackamoors seem to be derived from Moors, and blackamoor is often shortened as Moor (in German, Mohr). There are signs that the word blackamoor was not only used for the Moors but also to describe any black African people. There are Christian monks from Abyssinia (Ethiopia) known in Germany.

Sardinia got a seal with four blackamoor heads (quattro mori) in the year 1479 by the Spanish, perhaps because of the Saracen assaults from North Africa

The German chocolate company Sarotti uses a blackamoor as their symbol.
