It is composed of four villages: Cenaloș (), to the southeast of Sâniob Ciuhoi ( ), to the south of Sâniob Sâniob Sfârnaș (), to the southwest of Sâniob Known as Sâniob prior to 1968, the commune's name was changed to Ciuhoi that year and its seat moved to the latter village. In 2012, the commune's previous name was revived and the seat moved back to Sâniob village.
==History== The village was named after Stephen I of Hungary's Holy Dexter, whose preserved right hand was kept in an abbey here. The name was granted by Ladislaus I of Hungary in 1083. The locality was conquered by the Ottomans in 1661, becoming the seat of a sanjak in Varat Eyalet. Called by the new authorities, it was captured by the Habsburg monarchy in 1691.
