Location of Ricote in Murcia.

Ricote is a Spanish municipality in the autonomous community of Murcia. It has a population of 1,509 (2004) and an area of 87.7 km² .[1]

Ricote had a community of Moriscos (crypto-Muslims) until the 1609 Expulsion of the Moriscos from Spain. Scholars Govert Westerveld [2] and Prof. Francisco Márquez Villanueva[3] of the Harvard University believe that the name of the Morisco character Ricote in Don Quixote is derived from the village.
