  • Toponyms and Place Heritage As Sources of Place Brand Value
    Paula Sjöblom–Ulla Hakala Toponyms and place heritage as sources of place brand value 1. Introduction Commercial producers have long seen the advantage of branding their products, and the idea of discovering or creating uniqueness also attracts the leaders and governments of countries, states and cities (aShWorth 2009). However, traditional product marketing framework has proved to be inadequate for places; therefore, place branding has rather leaned on corporate branding. Place branding is a long-term, strategic process that requires continuity, and these actions take time to be recognised (KavaratZIS 2009). As generally recognised not only in onomastics but also in marketing, a name can be seen as the core of a brand. Therefore, a place name is the core of a place brand. Having a name is having an identity. A brand name has functions that can be regarded as sources of brand equity, and name changes have proved to cause discomfort and distress amongst consumers (e.g. RounD–RoPER 2012, BRoWn 2016). The name of a place – having stayed unchanged – has traditionally represented permanence and stability and could be regarded as the place’s memory (BASSO 1996, hEllElanD 2009). Referring to lauRa koSTanSki (2016) and her theory of toponymic attachment, place names carry strong emotional and functional attachments. This theory is very important also regarding place branding. According to GRAHAM et al. (2000), heritage can be defined as the past and future in the present. Accordingly, place heritage is heritage which is bound up with physical space that is a place. As for the concept of place, it is a named space (lÉVi-STRauSS 1962).

Insectivorous bats living near metal emission 33 sources can be vulnerable to such contaminants. Although it is known that bats can 34 bioaccumulate metals, little information exists on the effects of metal elements on their 35 physiological status. For example, oxidative status markers are known to vary after 36 detoxification processes and immune reactions. Here, for two consecutive summers, we 37 sampled individuals from a natural population of the insectivorous bat, Myotis daubentonii, 38 inhabiting a site close to a metal emission source. We quantified metals and metalloids (As, 39 Ca, Cd, Co, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Se, Zn) from individual fecal pellets. We measured enzymatic 40 antioxidants (GP, CAT, SOD), total glutathione (tGSH) and ratio between reduced and 41 oxidized glutathione (GSH:GSSG) from their red blood cells together with biometrics, 42 hematocrit and parasite prevalence.
