Donegal Bay - Donegal Bay
|
A bay in County Donegal in the northwest of Ireland. The name means "Foreigner's (Gaul's) Fort" and comes from the fact that foreign Danes have long lived in what is now County Donegal. There are rich herring fishing grounds off the northwest coast, and the fishing port of Killybeg in the bay boasts the largest herring catch in Ireland. County Donegal is also home to thriving hand-woven woolen textile and linen spinning industries. [Ueno Itaru] Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |

アイルランド北西部，ドニゴール県にある湾。地名は〈外国人(ゴール)の砦〉の意で，現ドニゴール県に古くから外来のデーン人が住みついていたことに由来する。北西の沖合に豊かなニシン漁場があるため，湾内の漁港キリーベッグはアイルランド第1のニシンの水揚げを誇っている。なお，ドニゴール県は手織りの毛織物業やリネン紡績業が盛んである。【上野 格】
