There is little evidence of the Muslim city of Balansiya in the mid-13th century. However, the Llibre del Repartiment is a valuable document to establish the urban topography of the Arab Valencia at the time of the Christian conquest. Names of streets, neighborhoods, atzucachs, singular buildings, properties of distinguished individuals...etc. are found throughout the text. Their systematic search by cataloging each of the references to obtain an approximate map of the part of the medina located southeast of the Boatella gate has been the objective of this research. The neighborhoods of Abencalbo, Alhadromi, Axigara and Algalga have been located; and the atzucach Avinacalel, Alfaz, and Cavacavery. Two baths, five ovens, four alfondechs and four mosques have also been detected. All this has been represented on a current plan of the city.
