Adjona, also written Adxoña or Atxoña was the
Menceyato de Abona at the time of the conquest of Tenerife
in the fifteenth century.
Adjona normally lived in
Vilaflor, in the territory of Abona, although the historian Juan Bethencourt Alfonso indicates that mencey residence was located near the modern town of El Rio, Arico
.
Adjona signed peace in 1490 with the governor of
Catholic Monarchs[1]
along with the rest of menceyes. As a mencey of the bando de paces, he returned to Tenerife and integrated into the new society. He died before 1507.
