The «Libro de Apeos» (i.e., Land Registry file) of Mansilla Mayor is an 18th century document, handwritten in one volume and kept in the town’s church, in which the boundary lines of all the land of the inhabitants of that time, including those of the church itself, are recorded. Mansilla Mayor is a town in the province of León, located in the Esla-Campos Leonese region. Among its archaeological and monumental heritage is the settlement of the Asturian and Roman city of Lancia and the Cistercian monastery of Santa María de Sandoval (12th century). Linguistically speaking, the area is located within the central Asturian-Leonese dialect. This paper compiles all the place-names cited in that document and verifies those that are still known by the town's residents, which are reduced to 35 or 40% of all the place-names documented in that manuscript. The analysis of the document demonstrates the existence of traditional toponymic forms (such as Llama, Castro, prefix so- and sobre-, abundant in -al, keeping the group -mb-, among others), which allows us to draw conclusions related to linguistic uses in the Old Leonese territory. In this sense, and in relation to vocabulary, it is interesting to find documented voices whose use has currently disappeared completely or is in frank retreat, such as the words ejido, ferreñal or ferrenal or two abundant phytoponimics such as olmar and ponjal. The combination of properties undergone in the area as well as the alarming decrease in the population of the municipality make the collection and documentation of this toponymic heritage that is in danger of disappearing urgent.
El Llibru d’Apeos de Mansilla Mayor ye un documentu del sieglu XVIII, manuscritu nun tomu y curiáu na ilesia de la mesma localidá, onde se rexistren les llendes de toles posesiones de los habitantes d’aquel entós, incluyíes les de la mesma ilesia. Mansilla Mayor ye un conceyu de la provincia de Lleón, asitiáu na fastera o comarca conocida anguaño como Esla-Campos. Ente’l so patrimoniu arqueolóxico y monumental atópase l’asentamientu de la ciudá ástur y romana de Lancia y el monesteriu cisterciense de Santa María de Sandoval (sieglu XII). Llingüísticamente falando, la zona asítiase nel asturianolleonés central. Esti trabayu arrexunta tolos topónimos citaos nesi documentu y constata aquellos qu’inda güei son conocíos polos sos vecinos y que suponen un 35 o 40% de los documentados nesi manuscritu. Del analís del documentu constátase la presencia de formes toponímiques tradicionales (como Llama, Castro, prefixu so- y sobre-, abondancial en -al, caltenimientu del grupu -mb-, ente otres) lo que dexa algamar conclusiones rellacionaes con usos llingüísticos del antiguu dominiu ástur. Nesti sentíu, y en rellación al vocabulariu, ye interesante atopar documentaes voces con un usu anguaño desapaecíu dafechu o que ta en francu retrocesu, como les palabres ejido, ferreñal o ferrenal o dos abondanciales fitotoponímicos como olmar y ponjal. La concentración parcelaria de la zona y l’amenorgamientu esmolecedor de la población del conceyu faen urxente la coyida y documentación d’esi patrimoniu toponímicu en peligru de desapaición.
