Based on the maps provided, the correct conclusion about the result of the Reconquista in 1000 CE is:

**Christians recovered some of the Iberian Peninsula.**

In the map from 1000 CE, while the Caliphate of Cordoba continues to control a significant portion of Spain, there are several Christian kingdoms and counties, such as the Kingdom of Leon, County of Castile, and others, that indicate Christian presence and control in parts of the Iberian Peninsula. This suggests that the Reconquista had begun and that Christians were gradually reclaiming territory from Muslim powers.
