[Ginnungagap]

thanks for the tip and Steve B you are completely correct

 

[Steve B.]

Okay, enough of obscure Mediterranean fishing villages. Here's a less obscure American fishing village:

Nantucket, Massachusetts

It's more than 12 hours without a guess. Time for a hint.

Agered.

 

[Ginnungagap]

ah sorry, it lies on an island.

 

[Ginnungagap]

the ancient meaning of it's modern name is comprised of the old words for sacrificial place and village. sometimes it was only referred to as "holy place" or "place of worship".

 

[delpiero1234]

It could be Visby on Gotland.

 

[Ginnungagap]

Good job delpiero! it is correct

 

[delpiero1234]

Happy guessing!

Edit: 12 hours have passed. Time for a hint.

Hint 1: The name of the city is not in the same language as its official language.

My guess would be El Paso, Texas but I was looking at the city a few hours ago and felt it was wrong. I have been circling the US south, Arizona, Texas and New Mexico but can't find a suitable option.
