From andalusi Arabic maharram, something forbidden. So called Hispanic Muslims the pig that ate Christians, which prohibited both the Koran and the old testament. Later Christians called marrano pig while converts Jews who continued to baulk at pork, it seems that they imply your false conversion. Analo became also mean dirty, dirty. In my land is also called pig to a lower and stronger beam on which support the rest of the roof in coarse but consistent structures before.
