== Place names == It's common to hear that Madrigueras comes from the fact that this was a place rich in game and practically deserted, so rabbits and hares ran wild. Apart from the fact that this region doesn't seem to have been as deserted as was supposed in the Middle Ages, since the occupation of some places suggests just the opposite, it's surprising that two other places within the old Kingdom of Toledo, that is, within the La Mancha region in the broadest sense, have similar names: Madrid and Madridejos .
