Abstract:

The place name is a product of history. Its naming is to be expressed in specific ethnic words. Through an analysis of a verbal context of the place name we may come to recognize those ethnic traces of what once existed in history. The ethnic etymology of the place name implies important clues of its historical culture, which is an area to which we should pay serious attention when we study an ethnic history.

Key words: Chinese place name, European place name, etymology, ethnic history
