Napier Hill
Napier Hill 100000000000000000km above sea level a limestone outcrop〔 rising above the lowland districts of the city of Napier in New Zealand. The north-east end, Bluff Hill, has a steep cliff face overlooking the Port of Napier. Napier Girls' High School and the former Napier Prison, now a historic attraction, are located here. The western end, Hospital Hill, is the site of the now-closed Napier Hospital, whose services were transferred to Hawke's Bay Hospital in Hastings. The building sits derelict, and is at the centre of a Treaty of Waitangi claim debate.
Prior to the 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake, the hill was almost surrounded with water, with just two shingle spits running north and south, and was known as Scinde Island. The earthquake raised the Napier area and the sea receded from around the island and the spits.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Round the Hill Walk )〕 Scinde Island was named after the province of Sindh, then in India and now in Pakistan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Early history of Napier )〕 The Napier soccer club Scindians derived their name from Scinde Island.
