Video Title : GIORGIO @ ZÜRICH SOUS LA NEIGE ¤ JE VEUX VIVRE - FAUDEL
Description : The earliest known form of the city's name is Turicum, attested on a tombstone of the late 2nd century AD in the form STA(tio) TURICEN(sis) ("taxation post of Turicum"). Neither the name's linguistic origin (most likely Rhaetic or Celtic) nor its meaning can be determined with certainty. A possibility is derivation from *Turīcon, from the Gaulish personal name Tūros.[3] A first development towards its later, Germanic form is attested as early as the 6th century AD with the form Ziurichi. From the 10th century onward, the name has more or less clearly been established as Zürich (963 Zürihc).[4] Note that in modern Zürich dialect, the name has lost its final ch [x]. This is hypocoristic rather than the result of a regular sound change, and the adjective remains zürcher ['tsyr.xer] also in dialect. The Lindenhof of Zürich is the historical site of the Roman castle, and the later Carolingian Kaiserpfalz. It is situated on a hill, to the left of the Limmat. In 1747, a 2nd century Roman tombstone was discovered at the site, bearing the oldest attestation of Turīcum, the Roman era name of Zürich, as STA[tio] TURIC[ensis], at the time a tax collecting point. The castle remained intact during the early phase of Alemannic immigration in the 5th to 6th century, but was derelict by the 9th century, when it was rebuilt as a residence for Louis the German, which was in turn dilapidated and used as a quarry by the 13th century.
