Ruabon
Ruabon ((ウェールズ語:Rhiwabon) ) is a village and community in the county borough of Wrexham in Wales. The name "Rhiwabon" comes from "Rhiw Fabon", "Rhiw" being the Welsh word for "hill" and "Fabon" being a mutation from St Mabon, the original church name, of earlier, Celtic origin (see Mabon)." An older English spelling, Rhuabon, can sometimes be seen.
In 2001, more than 80% of the population of 2,400 were born in Wales with 13.6% having some ability in Welsh.〔(2001 Census )〕
==Early history==
There is evidence that a settlement existed in Ruabon in the Bronze Age. In 1898, building works in the centre of Ruabon exposed a cist or stone urn containing cremated human remains dating from 2000 years BC. In 1917, the remains of a Bronze Age round barrow were discovered on the playing fields of Ruabon Grammar School; they contained human remains, a flint arrowhead and a bronze axe.
Overlooking Ruabon is ''The Gardden'' ((ウェールズ語:Caer Din)), an ancient hill fort surrounded by circular ditches, dating back to the Iron Age.
