Image of Geria, not of the place itself.

The place name is derived from an Arabic word said to mean a place where the waters run, in allusion to the nearby meeting of the Pisuerga and the Duero. In the municipal district there was a Vaccaean settlement between the sixth and first centuries before Christ.
