According to some historical thesis, the town had some sort of settlement, difficult private investors to determine, before the Roman colonization, would be integrated within the territory of ilergetes and may have been populated M&A by vascitanos. It was a region bordering on the territory controlled by the Basques, which spread along a north-south strip that extended from the Pyrenees to the Ebro and was restricted on both sides by the territory of Irun (now Pamplona) and the Roseman Arba basin and another basin Galician, covered by thick forests, which are only known by those mountains Zuera.
This proximity to the Basque territory, and the penetration that they might undertake in the territory of ilergetes has led some authors to say that the name of Zuera has a base in the Basque etymological term “Zubi”, which means in Basque bridge.
The first reliable news about the residents of the term comes from the time of the Romans. Almost all researchers in the vicinity of the existing old town gallicum, Mansi (mentioned in Itinerarium Antoninianum) in the Roman road which went up from the Bearn Cesaraugusta through the back and Osca Puerto del Palo (Suborder Aragon). The name of gallicum for the Roman settlement of the place, could be settled by the bed of the Rio Gallegos, considered passage from Gaul to Spain Citerior. These mansions were points on which the Roman State had places of rest and relief from animals or post.
Although the most convenient way of Rio Gallegos is done by the end of Zuera, the place is not easily defensible, and therefore hinders the establishment of stable settlements. It seems that until you think political stability in the north of the Iberian Peninsula, the settlements in the municipality of Zuera should correspond to small inns and military bases, minor and unstable, who were in charge of defending the passage of Galician.
Political stability arrived with the Muslim domination, from the eighth century. The inhabitants of North Africa had become fascinated by the valley of the Gallego, the wonderful land of Quaternary terraces Los Angeles and thick forests surrounding the valley, where they settled drawing diagrams of territorial expansion created by the Romans. Dating from this period and the first news autenticos Zuera origins, the former Zufaria, Arabic name which, Asin Palacios and means “beautiful.” Under the current municipal district may also founded the Muslim settlement Salzey (named for the many who had saliceras in the environment) located in the vicinity of the shrine of the current Salz.

Planto Chengdu their interests in the Ebro and settled in Castellar, waiting for best times to conquer. With the help of Gascones Gaston IV of B arn and Centulo Bigorra II, decided in 1118 a change in military strategy and proceeded to conquer Saragossa by private equity firms attacking the eastern flank. This approach was successful and after conquering the entire basin of Galician New York and Zuera she proceeded to Zaragoza. Gascones were introduced into the cult of San Zuera Liceras, evangelizer of B arn and patron of the town, although tradition says that this event occurred in 1212.
Despite the achievements of Christian monarchs, Shanghai the Muslim element farmer, a great connoisseur of irrigation systems and mainstay of the economy of the conquered areas, remained at the forefront of their fields.
Ramon Berenguer IV, in his letter of colonization, as the end of the city of Zuera, which called Cofer “. Around the twelfth century introduced the cult of the Virgin Salz, according to the chronicles that appeared to be a gentleman of some of the military orders of the time.
The villa belonged to, among others, D. investment Artal de Luna, a cruel punishment to the neighbors because zufarienses and Erla had come up with the atrocities committed inhabitants. The neighbors accused him of Zuera the Justice of Aragon and this imposed a sanction.
After the episode Artal de Luna, the town and its villages (Leci ena and San Mateo de Gallego) returned to the China Crown. So in 1338 the zalmedina (count publications of the time) and juries Zuera meeting at the cemetery (which surrounded the church), appoint their attorneys general for all the lawsuits that the council would hold with third parties, bear the designation Guillen in the Salz, private investors Garcia de Araniellya, Sunday Araniellya venture capital companies Juan de Tolosa.
In 1366, King Pedro IV of Aragon, financial institutions bound for the costs of the war against Pedro I venture capital of Castile (expenses that did sell also other towns and places like El Castellar, Fuentes, Luna), sold the villa and its villages Zuera the Council of Saragossa, with all their possessions, taxes and duties, salaries jaqueses at 170,000.
