Recas is a municipality located in the province of Toledo, Castilla–La Mancha, Spain.
According to the 2006 census (INE), the municipality has a population of 3138 inhabitants.
The placename is either suggested to be a hydronym of Vasconic origin (from Erraka, 'creek') or derived from Arabic Rakab, via archaic latinized variant Requas.
[2] The village is sometimes referred to as La pequeña Mali ('Little Mali') owing to the substantial share of the population with origins in Mali.
