Name of the town on the sign indicating the entrance to the urbanized area
In 1247 it was mentioned as Cabaniellas del Monte[2] and in the Ensenada Cadastre (1752) it was mentioned as Cabañuelas, Torrecavalleros neighborhood.[3] The word "Cabanillas" derives from the Latin capannelas, diminutive of capanna —of possible pre-Roman origin due to the suffix -anna—, with the meaning of cabin, farm where cattle are raised or stable for the herd.[4]
In the villages of the mountains, the houses or ranches with large corrals are still called cabins where cattle are sheared. In 1916 there was one of the few shearing yards that remained standing here, the one called Rancho de la Marquesa, which in the early 20th century maps was called Rancho de D. Tomás Mascaró.[2][5] The place name is also repeated in Cabañas de Polendos and Cabanillas de Pirón (Adrada de Pirón). As for the word "Mount", it would refer to its location next to a mountain or forest.[2]
The area is mostly grasslands and abundant thorny shrubs, few specimens of shrub oak and reforestation pine forests. As aromatic species we have salsero thyme, white thyme, lavender.
