Abstract


In this article we study a large number of place names that come from the Arabic root word faḥṣ. Some of them constitute simple words, as for instance: Alfás and Haza; others appear as the first or second element of compound nouns, which is the case of Fazhali and Moratalaz With this work we try to explain the origin and meanings of some Spanish place names and at the same time we seek to corroborate the thesis previously stated that the common noun haza comes from the Arabic faḥṣ 'piece of land' and not from the Latin fascia 'strip'.
