==History== The town’s name, which means "two sisters", dates from its founding in 1248 by King [[Ferdinand III of Castile]] and honours Elvira and Estefanía Nazareno, the two sisters of Gonzalo Nazareno, one of the king's principal military commanders. For this reason natives of Dos Hermanas are called ''nazarenos/as''. In [[Tirso de Molina]]'s play ''[[The Trickster of Seville and the Stone Guest]]'' (''El burlador de Sevilla y convidado de piedra'') (1612-1620), Dos Hermanas is mentioned as the place where Don Juan Tenorio manages to interpose himself in the marriage of two plebeians, Arminta and Batricio, whom he cleverly deceives. ''The Trickster of Seville and Stone Guest'' is the play from which the myth of "Don Juan" derives the name.
