Amioun
Amioun ((アラビア語:أميون, transl. ''Amyūn''), ) is the capital of the predominantly Eastern Orthodox Christian Koura District (i.e. χώρα, "country" in Greek) in the north of Lebanon.
==Etymology==
The town of Amioun derives its name from the Aramaic language, meaning "'am Yawan" "place of the Greeks", with a possible alternative root ''fortified town''. Amioun is located on the top of an ancient hill dating back to before the 2nd millennium B.C., and the town was called "Amia" during this period.〔http://www.lebanon-tourism.gov.lb/Content/uploads/Publication/121023063120435~koura.pdf
〕 The word ''Amia'' was cited in the letters of Tell el Amarna, which were sent in the 14th century B.C. by local governors to their overlords, the pharaohs of Egypt. In his etymological study of the names of Lebanon’s towns and villages, historian Anis Freiha asserted that ''Amia'' is in turn derived from the Semitic word ''emun'', meaning "invincible fort".
