The Tanela River, which flows toward Atrato, was Hispanicized to Darién; the region and its communities took the same name. Santa María la Antigua del Darién, the first city founded in Terra Firma, also took its name from the river. Subsequently, the region's boundaries were defined by the Gulf of Urabá.
