Description

Burjassot és un municipi del País Valencià, a la comarca de l'Horta Nord, i situada a la zona oest de l'Àrea Metropolitana de València. Té 38.175 habitants .

El significat del topònim Burjassot és discutible. En el Llibre del Repartiment apareix Borjaçot, Borgaçot i Borgazot. L'historiador Gaspar Escolano proposa un origen àrab, Burjaçote, que significa "Torre del sot", compost per borg, que significa "torre", i Sot, que és el mateix que "bosc". En 1952 l'historiador Nicolau Primitiu va interpretar burjac com a "castell", i el sufix -ot afegiria un matís augmentatiu, "castell gran". Cervellera Castro atribuïx la torre o castell, burg, a l'últim rei musulmà de València, Aben-Zeyan, conegut com a Asoto. Borg Asot significaria "Torre d'Asoto". D'altra banda, és "torre de l'assut", al·ludint el castell que havia de vigilar la confluència de les séquies de Tormos i Montcada. En 1981, el Departament de Lingüística Valenciana de la Facultat de Filologia apuntava l'etimologia del nom Burdj a una paraula àrab que significa "torre". El segon component és el nom propi d'una persona, Asswad, per tant, Torre d'Asswad.
