Nevertheless, it was the Romans who gave it the first name which has survived: Lacibis.
It became a market town: a transition point for the minerals being quarried 5 Km or so to the south in the Sierra Blanca. Marble from these quarries was certainly used in the construction of the Roman town of Italica, which once stood close to Seville, and was the birthplace in 76AD of the future emperor, Hadrian.

They afford a specimen of the whole country when possessed by the Moors, being surrounded by gardens with orange, lemon and palm trees and abounding in all the fine as well as the more common fruits.' To this day an orange tree features on Co�n's coat of arms.
