According to my Oxford Spanish-English dictionary, there are several words that start with X.
xumil = edible bug
xocoyote/ta (Mexico) = youngest child
xerocopiar = to photocopy
There are a few others without an English meaning
xotoma
xenófilo (adj)
xenófobia
xenófobo
xonoinjerto
xenón
xenotraplante
xercopia
xerófilo
xerófito
xerografiá
xilema
xileno
And just a few more.

Well, when you say Spanish history, I presume that you could include Mexico and the conquest? There are lots of towns in Mexico that start with the letter X. For example, Xalapa (in the state of Veracruz) was a favorite place of the Spaniards to go in order to escape the heat of Veracruz back in the 1500's when Mexico was known as New Spain.
