Agron in Granada is apparently of Arab origin and is located in the Granada Temple region. The term Quempe Temple is composed of the Latin voice Campus, (field) and the anthroponym of the Arab tribe Qays. The presence of the Watchtower corroborates this story, as well as archaeological remains, little studied, until now. But its history dates back to prehistoric settlements. Its character must have been defensive, as befitted the settlements located on buttes that dominated plains.
