__NOTOC__ The Southern Buh, also called Boh River (in Ukrainian)〔(Boh River ) at the Encyclopedia of Ukraine〕 and Southern Bug (in Russian),〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Encyclopædia Britannica: Southern Buh (River) )〕 ((ウクライナ語:Південний Буг), ''Pivdennyi Buh'': (ロシア語:Южный Буг), Yuzhny Bug),〔 is a river located in Ukraine. The second longest river in Ukraine. The source of the river is in the west of Ukraine, in the Volyn-Podillia Upland, about 145 km from the Polish border, from where it flows southeasterly into the Bug Estuary (Black Sea basin) through the southern steppes. It is long and drains 63,700 km². Major cities on the Southern Bug: Khmelnytskyi, Vinnytsia, Pervomaisk, Mykolaiv (''listed downstream, i.e. southwards''). ==Nomenclature, etymology and history== ((ウクライナ語:Південний Буг), ''Pivdennyi Buh''; (ウクライナ語:Бог); (ポーランド語:Boh); (ロシア語:Южный Буг), ''Yuzhny Bug'', Ottoman (トルコ語:Aksu)) Herodotus (c. 484–425 BCE) refers to the river using its ancient Greek name: Hypanis. During the Migration Period of the 5th to the 8th centuries CE the Southern Bug represented a major obstacle to all the migrating peoples in the area. The long-standing local Slavic name of the river, ''Boh'' (Cyrillic: Бог), may derive from a root meaning "rich" ((ウクライナ語:бaгата), bahata). The famous 17th-century French military engineer and geographer Guillaume Le Vasseur de Beauplan () recorded the name of the river as ''Boh Ruthenian'' ((ウクライナ語:Бог Руський), Boh Ruskyi).〔 Compare: 〕 From the 16th to the 18th centuries most of the Southern Ukraine formed part of the Crimean Khanate and/or of the Ottoman Empire; the river had the Turkic name ''Aq-su'', meaning the "White river". "Bug", a Russian name, became established during the colonial period in Ukraine and known internationally. It was a misnomer given by a Russian geologist Vladimir Laskaryev at the beginning of 20th century. On March 6, 1918 the Central Council of Ukraine (Tsentralna Rada of the Ukrainian People's Republic) adopted the law "For the administrative-territorial division of Ukraine", dividing Ukraine into numerous lands. One of those lands in the upper stream of the river was named "Boh land" ((ウクライナ語:Побожжя), Pobozhia). Previously in the 18th century there had existed the ''Bohogard phalanx'' ((ウクライナ語:Бoгоґардівська паланка), Bohogardivska palanka) as part of the Zaporizhian Sich centered in the city of Gard (today a tract near Yuzhnoukrainsk). 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「Southern Bug」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
