Deskripsi

Ever crossed in my mind before about the name of places in some areas of Indonesia that is just so unique that some of them don’t even sound like a language that I know at all. As an example, two years ago I was planning to go to the most south of the islands in Sulawesi, Taka Bonerate. I had to repeat the name a few times to get myself familiar and let it smoothly came out from my mouth whenever I mentioned it. Then, I heard of names like Bau Bau, Wangi Wangi, Buton, Asgats, Timika, and many more. Just open up the map and we will find many interesting names of the cities across Indonesia. Could it be because they had run out of names or it was because of a certain incident that happened at the time when the place or island was found? Or was it named after someone who had done something heroic and they used his or her name to honour the person? Sometimes, I can’t avoid. I am triggered to ask the locals, “Is there any meaning or any story behind the names?”
