medinaceli
  6

Beautiful Soria villa located on an ancient pre-Roman city of the Belos called Occilis or also Okilis later Romanized and Arabized. Some have interpreted it to have hybrid Arabic-Latin etymology, from madina, city and caelum caeli, sky, with what would mean the city of heaven. But while the meaning is precious, it actually derives from Occilis, hill, to the Celtiberians.
