Ancient Roman times. Agoncillo is strategically located near the Ebro River, which historically marked the boundary between Castile and Navarre. It sits close to where the Jubera and Leza rivers converge, with the Leza River flowing into the Ebro nearby. This positioning allowed the town of Agoncillo to control the passage of these rivers and oversee the important road running through the area. The current town is believed to occupy the site of the ancient and now ruined settlement of Egón, from which it derives its modern diminutive name.
The theory of its Roman origins is further supported by the presence of a documented road that passed nearby, an important route during the Middle Ages. Historically, Agoncillo has appeared under various names, including Agonciello, Egonciello, Agusiello, and Sagonciello.
