Llodio (in Basque Laudio and officially Laudio / Llodio) is a valley and municipality of the county of Álava, Basque country (Spain).The historical origins of Llodio are not very clear. The oldest vestiges in the town are the Roman bridge of Vitorica on the river Nervión, of which is an arch. This bridge would have been part of the roadway that Llanada united Alavesa with the Roman port of Flaviobriga (current Castro-Urdiales).The archaeological remains that demonstrate a Roman presence are reinforced by the theories of the linguists that believe that the name of the valley is an evolution of the Latin name Claudius or Claudianus that it would have evolved with the step of the years giving place to the population's two names, Basque, Laudio that is more similar to the Latin original; and the romance that is a more evolved and less recognizable form of the same one.
