Barx
Barx (, es, Bárig) is a municipality in the ''comarca'' of Safor in the Valencian Community, Spain. Etymology Tackling the etymology of the place name "Barx" is no simple matter and has caused heated controversy between scholars of Roman and Moorish languages and dialects. The place name occurs in many forms in ancient texts. Moorish scholars contend that the first name identified as connected with Barx is ''Bodj Aldjabal'' (the "tower of the mountains"). Humbler beginnings come out of other associated words and Christian scholars favour ''Perxe'' …an old word meaning 'cabin' …corrupted into ''Berxe'' by Arab pronunciation. Tower or cabin, ''bordj'' or ''berxe'', what is important is the fact that the historical existence of the name attests to the presence of a community with an ancestry that dates back to the first millennium.

Comarques Of The Valencian Community
The '' comarques'' of the Valencian Community, form an intermediate level of administrative subdivision between municipalities and provinces. They are used as a basis for the provision of local services by the Generalitat Valenciana, but do not have any representative or executive bodies of their own. In 1987, the Generalitat Valenciana published an official proposal for Homologated Territorial Demarcations, ''Demarcacions Territorials Homologades'' (DTH), of three degrees, where the first degree largely coincides with the territorial concept of ''comarca''. Until now, the practice of these demarcations has been limited as a reference to the administrative decentralisation of the different services offered by the Generalitat, such as education, health, or agriculture. In fact, there is no legal provision for these DTHs to ultimately have the intended “territorial impact”, that is, comarca-level political or administrative bodies. Instead, the powers shared between several muni ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
