Definición

  • Place names (or toponyms) are used to identify and differentiate geographic features, both human-made (e.g., countries, cities, and streets) and physically based (e.g., mountains, lakes, and rivers). Toponyms are systems of spatial reference and symbolic expression. [Source: Encyclopedia of Geography; Place Names]
