The name of one of the most important cities in Spain is unexpectedly interpreted from the Kartvelian point of view, from which no one has looked at this toponym yet. Note that there is "Saragossa" in Valencia. The same word spelled differently. If we perceive the word as a toponymic construction "Sa + arago + sa", meaning "land of Arago", then the root will be, in fact, the name of the province, the capital of which Zaragoza is - Aragon (or "Aragó" in Catalan). So, the initial toponyms is სა(ა)რაგო. The two "aa" inevitably merge in one. The ending "-sa", by the way, is also perfectly explained from the Kartvelian point of view as a Georgian ending of the genitive case at the end of the word. Compare საარაგოს ქალაქი и ქალაქი საარაგოსა.
