By references of historians of the time and others found by Araldis in the city and other private registry files, we could affirm, but not assure, that this shield or another very similar to it, initially appeared from the 11th to the 14th century, particularly in the penetration of the Catalan troops, coming from Italy and commanded by the Franks, in the battles of Perpignan, Gerona and Barcelona, and in the formation of the Hispanic Brand with a border on the Llobregat River. The references of this family seem to be needed more frequently from the XV to the XIX century, especially the events of lepanto, accompanying the assault and boarding troops of D. Luis de Requesens in the events of 1,571. All this seems to coincide with the family memory of some of the members of the Vilalva family branch. The study of the family heraldic shield "speaks" to us of those who formed the origin of the V. family, since that was its function, that of manifesting its differential elements to others, since the inclusion of the tower element means that the nobility is solid and old, since only the very rich could afford its construction. The enamels of the V. weapon proclaim the following values: the Gules is the symbol of strength, power, and fervent love for God and neighbor, such is the meaning of this enamel, to which we should add the desire of dominance, courage, audacity, strength and magnanimity, a high percentage of this type of family shield was given by acts of war.
