However, in order to learn more about the origins of this place, one has to go back to the times of the Phoenicians around 1.000 B.C. who build factories in Málaga and Cártama, and give it the name of Lauro.

Then the Roman settlers called it Lauro Vetus, but the present name was given by los Reyes Católicos as a result of the conquest of 1485.
