Where is Dunedin and Edinburgh?
Dunedin is located in the region of Otago, in the South Island of New Zealand, and also in Florida, USA, and in Ontario Canada. The word Dunedin comes from the Gaelic name for what is now known as Edinburgh, the Capital of Scotland. Edinburgh is a very ancient town/city. There is evidence of Bronze Age and Iron Age settlements, and in Roman times the site was occupied by Celts. In 617 the site was captured by Edwin, King of Northumbria, and it is probable that the city took its name from the fortress of Din Eidin that he built there. In Gaelic Edinburgh is known as both Dun Eideann and Dun Eidinn. All forms of Dunedin translate to mean 'fort' or 'settlement' of 'Edwin' although some would suggest it as 'fort' or 'settlement' 'on the hill'. Whatever the merits of the translation of its earlier name, in its current form Edinburgh retains and combines 'Edin-' from Eidin, Eadeann, or Eidinn with the medieval 'Burgh'.
