Documented since 934, the depopulated site of Tabuérniga has been known by many names over the centuries.

Tabuérniga is a despoblado that currently forms part of the concejo of Salinillas de Buradón, located in the municipality of Labastida, in the province of Álava.

The site has been documented since 934, though it is unknown when the settlement became depopulated. Over the centuries, the name of the location has been recorded as Cabuerneca, Cabuerniga, Cavorneca, and Taguerniga.

Today, the area remains a historical site with ruins, preserving the record of its long history in the province of Álava.
