Anbasa ibn Suhaym al-Kalbi (Arabic: عنبسة بن سحيم الكلبي) was the Muslim wali (governor) of al-Andalus, also known as Moorish Hispania, from 721 to 726 CE. Immediately after his appointment, Anbasa doubled taxes on the Christians and confiscated Jewish property.[citation needed] However, it is thought that this increase did not affect most of the recently conquered estates and towns, subdued by treaty on very specific conditions (taxes, land ownership, etc.), but lands under direct Arab rule and new towns being conquered in Septimania.
