Domingo Funes sold to Juan Gödeken a fraction of his land, a place without any roads, population or housing, making historians think that Gödeken was responsible for the first settlement and the farmers that came next cleaned up and cultivated the fields, building the majority of the rural roads. The town's name could have been temporary, looking at the local geography which features many chañars, a tree common to the area that gave the name to the nearby town of Chañar Ladeado (literally sideways chañar). The local township (comuna) was officially founded on October 11, 1906.
