El posible origen romano de La Parra

Historical milestone · La Parra, Zafra - Río Bodión, Badajoz

Image of La Parra, not of the place itself.

A 1706 Roman funerary inscription mentioning "Helvia Cemodesia" suggests the place may have been the ancient Vitis Calpurniana, a Roman winemaking estate; the name La Parra itself may derive from this.
