Identificarea valorilor de patrimoniu cultural prin studierea istoriei satelor ca unicele păstrătoare ale specificului naţional

Abstract

This article prezents a synthesisof the literature about history of Toxobeni village seen through the prism of anthropology. It is a well-known fact that when written sources are missing, auxiliary sources of history are used, such as archeology and anthroponymy that deals with proper names (names, ethnonyms, nicknames) or place names that come from personal names. This helped me to highlight in the history of the village some "anthroponymic substrates" of people's names and which allowed me to obtain a logical explanation of the origin of this unusual place name.
