Clocolan
Clocolan, established in 1906, is a small town in the Free State province of South Africa. The Basotho called the place Hlohlolwane (Hlohla-o-lwane, "get up and fight"). New inhabitants mispronounced the name and called it Clocolan. Town west of Prynn’s Berg, and some 166km north-east of Bloemfontein. Laid out on the farms Harold and Rienzi in 1906, it became a municipality in 1910. The name is of Sotho origin, said to be derived from hlohloloane, ‘bump and fight’, from an incident in which the bumping over of a basket filled with wheat led to a fight; or ‘pressed in the mountains’.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://archive.org/details/DictionaryOfSouthernAfricanPlaceNames )〕 ==References==
