Taracena
Taracena is a village (pedanía) belonging to the municipality of Guadalajara, Spain. It lies near the A-2.
History
The area of Taracena has been often identified (including by Adolf Schulten) as the location of Caraca, the city besieged and subjugated by Quintus Sertorius in the 1st century BCE.
A former municipality, Taracena was absorbed by the provincial capital in 1969, together with Valdenoches and Iriépal.
