This word means "place where you can find a lake with hazardous floods of water". Some centuries after, the Muslims (trying to reach the Northern part of Spain) transformed the place, and renamed it as "Bericulos". Finally, the name was influenced in Peligros by the Spanish language. It is known that there were Roman settlements, and during the Muslim domination it was a farmstead from "La Vega". In 1431, it took place the battle of "La Higueruela" between Christians and Muslims. Here, the army of Granada lost more than 10,000 men. After the ejection of the Moors, Peligros' population suffered a decline to a hundred of inhabitants, and its development took place during the 18th century. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peligros」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
