Baroye-dego

Baroye is a district, or dego in Mirselec, in Isana; given the numerical designation of E1-2, it is located in the north of Awenhine remis, along the east coast of Gardaus Bay.

The name Baroye is derived from the word Baro yenger, which in the Kavenain language means "high house", a reference to the houses of several wealthy Kavenain traders who had been granted royal favour by the Kingdom of Masal as monopoly traders of certain goods, in the 10th to 13th century.

Site and Situation

Baroye borders Iselniragan-dego to the north, and Bastenal-dego to the south, while facing Gardaus Bay to its west. The built up areas of Baroye are mostly on the inland side, while the areas nearer the sea are given over to shops catering to the working crowd, as well as many small gardens often known as Basademiles or "Pavillion Fields", many of which were built from donations of land by private individuals in the 19th century.
