Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi ((ウクライナ語:Білгород-Дністровський)), formerly known as Akkerman (see naming section below), is a regional city and port situated on the right bank of the Dniester Liman (on the Dniester estuary leading to the Black Sea〔) in the Odessa Oblast (province) of southwestern Ukraine, in the historical region of Bessarabia. The city serves as an administrative center of the Bilhorod-Dnistrovsky Raion and a big freight seaport. == Nomenclature == The city of Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi is also referred to by alternative transliterations from Ukrainian as Bilhorod-Dnistrovsky or Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyy. ''Dnistrovsky'' was added to differentiate it from Bilhorod that was part of the Sloboda Ukraine and carried a similar name. ;Previous names * Ophiusa (Οφιούσα), Phoenician colony * Tyras (Τύρας), Ancient Greek (Classical Greece) colony (also the Greek name for the River Dniester) * Album Castrum ("White Castle"), Latin name * Cetatea Albă ("White Citadel"), Romanian name * Asprokastron (, "White Castle"), Greek name in Antiquity and the Middle Ages * Maurokastron (Μαυρόκαστρον, "Black Castle), Greek name of a Roman/Byzantine fort on the site in Late Antiquity〔 * Turla, Turkic * Moncastro, Italian corruption of Maurokastron used by Genoese traders and during Genoese rule (14th–15th centuries)〔 The town became part of the Principality of Moldavia in 1359.

From 1918 to 1944 (with a short brief in 1940–1941), the city was known by its Romanian name of Cetatea Albă, literally "white citadel". Since 1944 the city has been known as "Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi" (Білгород-Дністровський), while on the Soviet geography maps often translated into its Russian equivalent of "Belgorod-Dnestrovskiy" (Бе́лгород-Днестро́вский), literally "white city on the Dniester". The city is known by translations of "white city" or "white rock" in a number of languages including Белгород Днестровски (''Belgorod-Dnestrovski'') in Bulgarian, ''Akerman'' (Акерман) in Gagauz, ''Białogród nad Dniestrem'' in Polish, and ''Dnyeszterfehérvár'' in Hungarian. In Western European languages, including English, the city has typically been known by the official name of the time or a transliteration derived from it. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
