The meaning of this name is unknown for certain. It could mean "earth", according to a word from the aborigine language of the Araguaco TaĆ­no Culture. Others believe it means "cupola, dome", a connotation, attributed recently, according to a Hispanic-Arabic denomination.

Hope this helps a little,
Magia.
