Cetina is a municipality in the province of Zaragoza, Aragon. It is situated at an altitude of 666 metres in the south east of the province, in the Comunidad de Calatayud, some 176 kilometres north east of Madrid and 98 kilometres south west of Zaragoza. The population in 2011 was 687.
The origins of the settlement are unknown, but Ambrosio de Morales has identified Cetina as Certima or Celtima, a Celtiberian fort which was conquered by the Roman general Graco in 179 CE. The town lies on the Camino del Cid, the path taken by the medieval warrior, Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, known as El Cid, according to the anonymous medieval poem, "El Cantar de Mio Cid", which follows the course of the river Jalón. The relevant lines state that ""and they entered the plain of Torancio, and halted between Ariza and Cetina; great were the spoils which they collected as they went along." Cetina was granted its own fuero by Guillén de Belles and Ramón Berenguer IV in the late 12th century.
