Acentejo, where the first battle was fought
The Battle of Acentejo (1494) was the Castilian crown's only major defeat in the conquest of the Canaries — mencey Bencomo ambushed the army of Lugo in the Acentejo ravine, killing 900 of 1500 advancing men. Today the name 'Acentejo' belongs to the two heir municipalities: La Matanza and La Victoria. The house carries that character: small but firm, the latest to join.
