Genoa
Genoa (Genova [] in
Italian—Zena [] in
Genoese) is a
city and a
seaport in northern
Italy, the capital of the
Province of Genoa and of the
region of
Liguria. The city has a population of ca. 620,000 and the urban area has a population of ca. 890,000. Genua was a city of the ancient
Ligurians. Its name is probably
Ligurian, meaning "knee" (from
Ancient Greek gony "knee"), i.e. "angle", from its geographical position, thus akin to the name of
Geneva. Or it could derive from the Celtic root genu-, genawa (pl. genowe), meaning "mouth", i.e., estuary.
