The Romans also passed through here, who imposed on the town the name of Municipium Flavium Vivertorum. The extensive Roman construction program, present throughout the Peninsula, left some interesting elements in the Jarandilla area, such as various bridges and roads, a villa and an important necropolis, La Berrocosa. Remains of tombs and inscriptions have also been found. From the Visigothic period there are hardly any remains, the most outstanding being the baptismal font that is kept in the church of Santa María de la Torre. The Visigoths were replaced in the 8th century by the Muslims, who gave the town the name Xarandiella and left some - few - remains of their culture, such as cultivation techniques, certain samples of Mudejar art and some parts of the church of Santa María de la Torre.
