1º_ Fictional island inhabited by Amazons mentioned in the novel Las Sergas de Espladián (Garci Rodríguez de Montalvo, 1510). 2º_ California is the name of a state in the USA -inherited from the Mexican peninsula and Gulf of California- in addition to several cities and localities in this and other countries. The origin of the name is unclear, but it was surely brought to America by the Spanish. Perhaps from the Catalan calor de forn ("oven heat") that ended in California for the hot attics of the churches, and was associated with the heat of the peninsula; it can also be a literary reference for the previous meaning, or for the Califerne of North Africa mentioned in La Chanson de Roland, a poem of chivalry of the eleventh century.
