In this work we present our interpretation and explanation about the names of the localities of Álava which come from the legacy of the Roman colonisation in the territory, included the County of Treviño. Those names spread throughout all the space of Álava in harmony with the names of Basque origin. This way, they form an historical reality that goes back 2000 years ago.

In the toponymy of Álava we can feel the Celtic trace, probably the oldest in this area, prior to Romans and Vascones, according to the ancient literary testimonies. We include in the article their place’s names which survived and we incorporate likewise a few Gallo-Roman toponyms, introduced in Álava, in a close moment to the fall of the Roman Empire, by people coming from Aquitania.
