Stannary town : ウィキペディア英語版
Stannary
The word stannary is historically applied to:
*A tin mine, especially in Cornwall or Devon, South West England
*A region containing tin works (mines and refineries, assay offices, etc.)
*A chartered entity comprising such a region, its works, and its workers
*The town constituting the administrative centre of such a region (a "stannary town")
*Any of the courts or parliaments established to maintain the rights of such a charter (see Stannary Courts and Parliaments—often in the plural).
The principal role of a stannary town was the collection of tin coinage, the proceeds of which were passed to the Duchy of Cornwall or the Crown. With the abolition of tin coinage in 1838 (following extensive petitioning by the Cornish tin industry for simplification of the taxation rules), the principal purpose for coinage town status ceased. However coinage towns still retained certain historic rights to appoint stannators to Cornwall's Stannary Parliament.
==Etymology of the word ‘stannary’==
The English word ‘stannary’ is derived from the Middle English ''stannarie'', through Medieval Latin ''stannaria'' (‘tin mine’), ultimately from Late Latin ''stannum'' (‘tin’) (cf. the symbol for the chemical element Sn). The native Cornish word is ''sten'' and tin-workings ''stenegi''.
