History
Los restos arqueológicos más antiguos que se conocen en este término se han encontrado en la Cova del Frontó, sita en la loma del mismo nombre en las estribaciones nordeste de la sierra de Benicadell y corresponden a un enterramiento colectivo de la Primera Edad de Los Metales, perteneciente a la cultura eneolítica. En la Sima de Salem se han encontrado fragmentos de cerámica romana de época tardía y de tiempos medievales.
Tras la expulsión de los moriscos, en 1609, la población sufrió una considerable disminución.
Perteneció territorialmente a los marqueses de Bèlgida y más tarde a los duques de Gandía.
