Geography
The waters of the river Arlanza, rising in the pines forest of Quintanar de la Sierra, running from east to west because the land falls from heights such as Peñas de Cervera (Mount Valdosa, 1412 m) and the mountain range The Mamblas (1372 m) to the border with Palencia, give name to the comarca.
History
The Arlanza zone was repopulated mainly by Astur, Cantabri, Visigothic and Mozarab peoples in the mid-ninth century, after the border of the County of Castile and the Kingdom of Córdoba reached the river Duero.
