Spanish family, originally called Africa or African, which propagated in Italy, already in Roman times, where it assumed the current cognominization. The origin of this cognomination, should derive from the Latin cognomen "Africanus", made famous by the famous Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus, so much so that the veterans of the African countryside, could add, if distinguished in the fighting, to their nomen the said cognomen, and from that Sesto Giulio, author of a commentary, "most learned" to the dir of De Sinner, born in Emaus, Syria, in the III century of Christ. In Spain, the family gave very important personalities, such as: Carlos, son of the king of Tremecen, who entered the Order of Santiago, in 1582; Felipe, of the king of Marruecos, who entered the order of Santiago, in 1594. His nobility, moreover, is proved by the presence of its members, also, in the orders of Calatrava, Alcantara, Montesa,
