Foios is a municipality in the comarca of Horta Nord in the Valencian Community, Spain. It has a population of 7,342 (INE 2019). According to Gaspar Juan Escolano, the name Foios comes from Latin Fundus which means "Inheritance" or "Farm". Flat of Foios (Plana de Foyos) is known as the remains of a Roman villa of the Alteimperial period. However, the current land comes from an Al-Andalus Rahal, mentioned in 1235 and conquered by Jaime I in 1237. The king gave it to Roderic Eiximen of Llúcia on August 1 of the same year, who transferred it to the Díez family in 1238. In 1247 the lands were in ownership of a tal Guillem and, after few sales and partitions, Ramon Vilanova bought the lordship in 1386. Several years later Foios returned to the Crown of Aragon as Villa Real and did not become a property again. More information...
