The origin of the community's name is uncertain: two versions with distinct etymologies exist. According to the first, Argoncilhe arises from ''areucillus'', a diminutive of "areub" (''arch''), that evolved to ''arcucillus'' and ''arcucillis'' in Latin, and ultimately ''Argoncilhe'' (''small arch''). The second interpretation, points to the name of Argoncilhe developing from ''Dragoncellus'', evolving into ''Dragunceli'' (1086), ''Draguncelli'' (1091), ''Dragoncelli'' (1100 and 1102), ''Dragonzell'' (1114), ''Ecllesian Sancti Martini of Argoncilhi'' (1320), ''St. Martin of ...

Cap (sport)
In sport, a cap is a player's appearance in a game at international level. The term dates from the practice in the United Kingdom of awarding a cap to every player in an international match of rugby football and association football. In the early days of football, the concept of each team wearing a set of matching shirts had not been universally adopted, so each side would distinguish itself from the other by wearing a specific sort of cap. An early illustration of the first international football match between Scotland and England in 1872 shows the Scottish players wearing cowls, and the English wearing a variety of school caps. The practice was first approved on 10 May 1886 for association football after a proposal made by N. Lane Jackson , founder of the Corinthians: The act of awarding a cap is now international and is applied to other sports. Although in some sports physical caps may not now always be given (whether at all or for each appearance) the term ''cap' ...
