History
Municipality located in the territory of the Jucá Indians [7], [8] , whose geographical reference and initial landmark is the Riacho dos Bois, exactly in the place formerly known as Campo Alegre.

The Jucá Indians who lived on the banks of the Umbuzeiro River, a tributary of the Jaguaribe River, were settled and catechized at the initiative of Father José Bezerra do Vale, who came from the city of Recife to provide follow-up services to the communities, say Masses, hold weddings, baptized and, later, catechize.

In the 18th century, with the donation of sesmarias, cattle farmers arrived in the region and intensified the creation of cattle herds. The reference center of this allotment was a pond where the cattle ranchers used to give their herds a drink and in this way the urban center emerged.

Created in 1956. Its original name was Bebedouro  and, since 1943, Aiuaba.

Former Names:
