Its municipal boundaries bordered Tartanedo, Pardos, Fuentelsaz, and Cillas. The surrounding land was of good quality and included woodland of holm oak and oak. Local production consisted mainly of cereals, legumes, and firewood, while livestock raising and hunting were also present; trade involved exporting surplus agricultural products, livestock, and wool.
