Should we move this page to Yoshinogari Ancient Ruins? Is Yoshinogari solely means the ancient ruins in archaeology? --

Indeed, you make an excellent point,
Jjok. I guess that Yoshinogari is originally the name of a village or small administrative district. However, "Ancient Ruins" sounds unnatural to me. If we translate iseki, I guess it means archaeological site. How about moving to this: "Yoshinogari (archaeological site)". An alternative might be "Yoshinogari (national historic park)", but I am not sure about that one. What do you think?

Yoshinogari site looks academic and common term though I am not familiar to
Wikipedia:Naming conventions. I took Yoshinogari Ancient Ruins from
wikimedia commons and it seems originated from the official site.
[5] Google search results of Yoshinogari ruins also seems mostly Japanese sites including junior high history book.

Hi Again! We want to instill confidence in Wikipedia users that we know of what what we write. Therefore, leaning more toward professional terminilogy "Yoshinogari site" sounds good to me. I think 'Ancient Ruins' is a poor and unsuitable term -- I daresay sounds like non-native speaker English in poorly-edited tourism guidebooks (no insult intended). How about "Yoshinogari site" ?
