There are two theories about its origin:

One links it to a hermitage dedicated to Saint Anne, which gave rise to the settlement.

The other places it in the 17th and 18th centuries as a refuge for families from Jerez fleeing an epidemic, under the name of Valle del Pino (Pine Valley).

Some connect the origin of the nucleus with the settlement of some inhabitants around an old hermitage dedicated to Santa Ana, existing in that place since remote times, from which the place name of the population that was consolidated under its protection would derive.
