Keywords:

Abstract
In this paper we propose the analysis of some Galician and Portuguese toponyms based on medieval demonyms which, in turn, refer to different Galician terras and commissos and which, therefore, clarify some questions related to the colonization process of the land on the south side of the River Minho in the 9th and 10th centuries.Downloads
