Summary

The village of Marauri in Treviño was a Basque speaking community up to the last decades of the 18th century. Basque-origin toponymy increases as you go back in time, in detriment of names of a Romanic origin. In fact, many of them are not registered in documents right up to the 19th and 20th centuries. Phenomena like the translation of toponyms, the displacement of generic names and Castilianstyle ; spelling are the result of the period in which both languages were in contact.
