The municipality of Arabayona de Mógica (443 inhabitants in 2010; 2,326 ha) is located 25 km from Salamanca.
Arabayona de Mógica was originally known as Hornillo, mentioned for
the first time in 1265 as Forniellos. The village was probably
resettled at the end of the 11th century by Raymond of Burgundy as a
Leonese post watching the border with Castile.
On 19 December 1655, King Philip IV granted Hornillos to Rodrigo de
Múxica y Valdés, War Councillor of the king. On 9 July 1662, the lord of the village was
allowed to rename it Aramayona de Múxica.

The symbols are described
as follows:
Flag: Quadrangular. Vertically divided, with the colours of the coat of arms, blue and white, but in a distinct position from the arms to prevent confusion.
Coat of arms: Per pale, 1. Azure three ovens [hornillos] (the number of plenitude), 2. Argent a branch of bramble proper. The shield surmounted with a Royal Spanish crown.
