The Taifa of Niebla was a taifa kingdom that existed for three distinct times: from 1023 to 1053, from 1145 to 1150 and from 1234 to 1262.
From 1053 until 1091 it was under the forcible control of Taifa of Seville, by Abbad II al-Mu'tadid.[1] when it was finally conquered by the Crown of Castile. In 1262 it was eventually absorbed by Castile.
