Wie Unser Dorf Zu Seinem Namen Kam Die Urgeschichte Hat in Oberbuchsiten Einige Spuren Hinterlassen
Oberbuchsiten im Wandel der Zeiten ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Oberbuchsiten: Wie unser Dorf zu seinem Namen kam Die Urgeschichte hat in Oberbuchsiten einige Spuren hinterlassen. An der bevorzugten Südlage am Jurahang siedelten sich zwischen 4000 v. Chr. bis 2000 v. Chr. Menschen der Jungsteinzeit an. So fand man in mit Kieseln gepflasterten Wohngruben Scherben, Steinbeile, Feuersteinmesser mit Schaberabschluss, Steinmeisselchen, Aschen- und Knochenschichten, Hüt- tenlehm und zerschlagene Kiesel. Weitere Funde, teilweise an der gleichen Stelle, bezeugen, dass auch Menschen der Bronze- und Eisenzeit (1800 v.Chr. bis 500 v.Chr.) in Oberbuchsiten gelebt haben. Es ist wenig bekannt, dass auf dem «Hardchöpfli» Überreste einer jungsteinzeitlichen Siedlung gefunden wurden. Zur Zeit der Römerherrschaft war das Gebiet der heutigen Gemeinde Ober- buchsiten an drei verschiedenen Orten besiedelt. So sind römische Ansied- lungen nachzuweisen westlich des heutigen Dorfes, nordwestlich der Kirche und eine dritte in der Nähe der „Wies“ auf dem Berge. Die Römerfunde (u.a. drei Villen mit Zementböden, Ziegel, Keramik, Glas, Münzen aus vier Jahr- hunderten und ein Bronzelämpchen) zeugen von einer hohen Kultur. Der Name der Ortschaft lässt auf ein Dorf römischen Ursprunges schliessen. Buchsiten ist vom lateinischen „buxetum“ abgeleitet und bedeutet: mit Buchs bewachsen. Der Buchsstrauch wurde von den Römern bei ihren Villen angepflanzt. Heute bedeckt dieser Strauch, die dem Dorf den Namen und auch das Wappen (Buchsstrauch auf grünem Dreiberg) gegeben hat, vielfach das Unterholz des bewaldeten Berges. Der Buchs gab sogar später dem ganzen Gäu den Namen Buchsgau, der 1040 als Buxcowe urkundlich er- wähnt wird. Der deutsche König Heinrich III. schenkte das Dorf Buxita im Jahre 1040 dem Kloster Einsie- deln. -
