El topónimo Beteta es actualmente conocido como nombre de una localidad de la provincia de Cuenca famosa por sus abundantes aguas, explotadas comercialmente en la actualidad. Pero el topónimo se repite de norte a sur en la parte oriental de la península ibérica, y en la mayoría de los casos vinculado también a lugares con una presencia importante del agua. En el presente artículo planteamos que esta circunstancia permite defender la relación entre esta forma toponímica y un teónimo ibérico en el que parece cumplirse también una especial vinculación con el agua.
The toponym Beteta is known above all as the name of a town in Cuenca famous for its abundant waters, currently commercially exploited. But the toponym is repeated from north to south in the eastern Iberian Peninsula, and in most cases also linked to places with a significant presence of water. We propose in this paper that this circumstance allows us to defend the relationship between this toponymic form and an Iberian theonym in which a special connection with water seems to be fulfilled.
