The name "Mathoholmul" wasn't used as the name of the town until December 18th 2020, when it received a warp. What is known about the name is that it originated from several lexemes, such as "math", because of Mixarium's passion for the math subject, "holm", probably taken from the second half of "Stockholm", capital of Sweden. The -ul at the end resembles a definite article from the Romanian language, where the definite articles are enclitic, meaning they're attached to the end of the noun, used to refer to masculine or singular neuter nouns, like "omul", meaning "the human", with the original noun being "om".

It is also believed that the name Mathoholmul may have come from a misnomer, as Mixarium intended it to be written as "Mathoholm'ul", to actually mark the -ul after the single quote in the name, meaning "The Mathoholm". People ignored the single quote and mostly referred to the town as "Mathoholmul". Mixarium accepted the usage of it without the single quote after several weeks.

Mathoholmul is a town founded on the second half of Map 10, by Mixarium[1](formerly known as MixariumTG_YT on the server).

History

The Beginning

Earliest known evidence of the foundation of Mathoholmul can be dated as back as November 26th or 29th 2020. On that day, a cobblestone castle was built. According to Mixarium, the reason the castle was built was because of boredom. At around that time, Mixarium was living in nobber1's base, which wasn't too far away from spawn in comparison to at that time soon-to-be Mathoholmul. For most of Mathoholmul's period, the castle remained empty, with the exception of the "crash slab discovery" event that occured during that period.

The castle of Mathoholmul, November 29th 2020.

The name "Mathoholmul" wasn't used as the name of the town until December 18th 2020, when it received a warp. What is known about the name is that it originated from several lexemes, such as "math", because of Mixarium's passion for the math subject, "holm", probably taken from the second half of "Stockholm", capital of Sweden. The -ul at the end resembles a definite article from the Romanian language, where the definite articles are enclitic, meaning they're attached to the end of the noun, used to refer to masculine or singular neuter nouns, like "omul", meaning "the human", with the original noun being "om". The reason to the Romanian language reference is Mixarium's Moldovan identity.

It is also believed that the name Mathoholmul may have come from a misnomer, as Mixarium intended it to be written as "Mathoholm'ul", to actually mark the -ul after the single quote in the name, meaning "The Mathoholm". People ignored the single quote and mostly referred to the town as "Mathoholmul". Mixarium accepted the usage of it without the single quote after several weeks.
