History
History
The Abenobashi area of Abeno is a commercial area where department stores and movie theatres are located. Abeno is a home for Sharp Corporation (Nagaike-cho).
When Osaka city increased its number of wards from 15 to 22 on April 1, 1943, Sumiyoshi ward was divided into three "new" wards, one of which was Abeno, the others being the Higashi-Sumiyoshi and Sumiyoshi wards. There are varying theories as to the origin of the name "Abeno". One is that it was the name of a powerful family-clan in ancient Japan, Abe; another suggests it might come from one of Yamabe no Akahito's songs in the Man'yōshū, and another theory suggests it might come from the "amabe" in Higashi-narigun-amabe-gou, an ancient place name. The theory of the powerful family-clan name holds strongest.
