La Aljorra is located at the north-western end of the municipality of Cartagena.
The name of this area comes from the Arabic "al-Hurra" ("the free woman"; "born to good social standing"; "not a slave"). It is likely to have been the given name of a farmstead owner.
Archaeological remains of the Argaric culture have been found in the district.
There was little Roman presence in this area in the era of Roman Hispania, although some artefacts have been found near a ravine called the Rambla del Saudillo. These include Roman ceramic lamps, potsherds, and coins.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Miocene : 23.03 Ma to 5.332 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
