| Founded near the end of the Ming Dynasty ([[Bengtiaau]]) in the 17th century, the village was known as ''Tvafkao'' in the Hoklo language ([[Høxlør-oe]]) spoken by most of the early immigrants. The name originates from the [[Makatao]] language of the local aboriginal tribe and translates as "bamboo forest".

| In 1895, Taiwan was ceded to Japan as part of the [[Treaty of Shimonoseki]]. It was during this period that the city’s name was changed from 打狗 (''Tvafkao'') to 高雄 (''Takao'' [[wikt:たかお|たかお]] Taka-o, Japanese kanji meaning "High Hero"). After control of Taiwan was handed to the [[Tionghoaa Binkog|Republic of China]] in 1945, the official romanization of the city name came to be “Kaohsiung”, based on the Wade-Giles romanization of the [[Standard Mandarin]] reading of the kanji name.
