New York Named by Royal Patent in Early English Era
A feature recounts the origin of New York naming by royal charter in 1664 during King Charles II's reign. It contrasts this with a famed Kaiserlautern Pike from 1400 in the Kaiserweg fishpond, noting its 1130 Greek inscription and 270-year age at a later time.
