Image of Balones, not of the place itself.

The villages of the valls of Seta and Travadell were almost entirely Morisco and were left empty by the expulsion of 1609. The lords shared out houses and terraces among colonists from neighbouring comarcas by means of cartas pueblas, and several places were never inhabited again.
