===Death=== [[File:Llull4.jpg|thumb|Llull's tomb in Palma]] In 1314, at the age of 82, Llull traveled again to Tunis, possibly prompted by the correspondence between [[James II of Aragon|King James II of Aragon]] and [[Abd al-Wahid Zakariya ibn al-Lihyani|al-Lihyani]], the [[Hafsid]] [[caliphate|caliph]], indicating that the caliph wished to convert to Christianity. Whereas Llull had been met with difficulties during his previous visits to North Africa, he was allowed to operate this time without interference from the authorities due to the improved relations between Tunis and Aragon.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Lower |first1=Michael |title=Ibn al-Lihyani: sultan of Tunis and would-be Christian convert (1311β18) |journal=Mediterranean Historical Review |date=2009 |volume=24 |issue=1 |pages=17β27 |doi=10.1080/09518960903000744|s2cid=161432419 }}</ref> His last work is dated December 1315 in Tunis.
