Mădăraș ((ハンガリー語:Csíkmadaras) or colloquially ''Madaras'', Hungarian pronunciation:) is a commune in Harghita County, Romania. It lies in the Székely Land, an ethno-cultural region in eastern Transylvania. It is composed of a single village, Mădăraș. == History == The village was first mentioned in 1567 as ''Madaras'', meaning ''"birdy"''. Its name may have referred to the abundancy of birds in the area.〔( Transylvanian Toponym Book )〕 Its Romanian name derives from the Hungarian form. According to tradition, the village was in the beginning located in the ''Hámorkert'' (Iron Hammer Garden) part also known as ''Fejedelem Kertje'' (Dukes’s Garden). Its residents used to be engaged in the mining of iron ore and mercury which was a royal monopoly. By the 18th century, the iron ore mine became exhausted, so the villagers started to deal with pottery and the village soon was famous for its potters which lasted until the end of the 19th century. More recently, thermal water sources has been discovered in the area and there are still unexploited iron ore and andezit occurrences, too. The village historically belonged to the Székely seat of Csíkszék until the administrative reform of Transylvania in 1876, when it fell within Csík County in the Kingdom of Hungary. After the Treaty of Trianon of 1920, it became part of Romania and fell within Ciuc County during the interwar period. In 1940, the second Vienna Award granted the Northern Transylvania to Hungary and the village was held by Hungary until 1944. After Soviet occupation, the Romanian administration returned and the commune became officially part of Romania in 1947. Between 1952 and 1960, the commune fell within the Magyar Autonomous Region, between 1960 and 1968 the Mureș-Magyar Autonomous Region. In 1968, the province was abolished, and since then, it has been part of Harghita County. 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「Mădăraș, Harghita」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
