Geography
Script error: No such module "wide image". The population core is located in slight decline, on the crest of a steep mountain at 703 m. The region is full of ravines, hamlets and farms scattered around the mountain. Its highest point is the hill of Mazmúllar (721 m). A dip the end of the rivers Cuevas or Benamargosa feeds the streams of Cútar, Fuente Delgada and Solano, which are dry most of the year.[citation needed] The town's water supply comes from the springs called Délga, Gorda, Caño Seco and Maroto.
The main economic activity is agriculture, such as olives, grapes and almonds. Comares is on the Ruta de la Pasa, the route of the grape. The Pasas de Málaga are a Protected Designation of Origin. These grapes are only grown in the Axarquía and around Manilva.[1] The grapes are dried in the sun in typical drying cages called paseros. In recent years rural tourism has become a major part of the economy of Coresma.
History
The origin of the name Comares is from the arabic word qumaris or hins comarix, which means "castle in the height." Comares was not founded by the Arabs, but by the Greeks and Phoenicians who arrived on the coast of Málaga in the seventh century BC. It was a moorish fortress since the eighth century CE [1] We also know that was one of the defensive bastions of omar ben Hhfsun in his fight against the Umayyad Caliphate of Córdoba. It was considered one of the strategic points of the rayya (archidona), then capital of the taha of Málaga.
