The Astete are an ancient basque - castilian lineage.[1] The etymology of "Astete" from the Basque language: "Aste" possibly a variation of "Arte" means oak, and "ete" is a suffix to nearby location. The most probable original locations, prior to the sixteenth century, are the regions of ancient basque influence of the medieval Castile (such as La Bureba and the mountains of Burgos) and modern La Rioja. The earliest official records occur in La Rioja, in Santo Domingo de la Calzada [2], at the province of Valladolid[3] and province of Burgos in Quintanaélez. Were "hidalgos" and had "casas solariegas" (ancient family seat) in Quintanaélez (Burgos), Valladolid and Salamanca.[4][5] They went first to America in the sixteenth century. Today they are mainly in Peru (the oldest branch), Chile, Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and USA. In Spain the surname is very rare nowadays, most Spanish Astete down from the branch that settled in Seville, Zahara de la Sierra and Grazalema (between XVII and XVIII centuries) and live in the province of Cádiz[6] in Andalusia. The variant "Estete" is possibly from La Rioja, but occurred sporadically or as a result of orthographic mistake in other Spanish provinces.
