St Albans, England : ウィキペディア英語版
St Albans

St Albans is a city and unparished area in southern Hertfordshire, England, approximately 20 miles north of London. St. Albans lies just east of Hemel Hempstead and west of Hatfield. It forms the main urban area of the City and District of St Albans. It is located about north-northwest of central London, southwest of Welwyn Garden City, and south-southeast of Luton. St Albans was the first major town on the old Roman road of Watling Street for travellers heading north and became the Roman city of Verulamium. It is an historic market town and is now a dormitory town within the London commuter belt.
==Toponymy==
Saint Alban, the first British Christian martyr, was possibly beheaded in 308 CE by Maximian on the orders of Emperor Diocletian, who had denounced Christianity and ordered the deaths of all subjects and allies of the Roman Empire who refused to give up the faith.〔Legendary Tales of the Ancient Britons, 1864, L. Menzies, adapted from the Latin Chronicles of Geoffrey of Monmouth.〕 Saint Alban consequently gave the city its modern name.
St Albans has two official demonyms: Verulamian; and Albanian. St Albans was a settlement of pre-Roman origin named ''Verlamion'' (or Verulam) by the Ancient British Catuvellauni tribe.
