"Cobblestone" is derived from the very old English word "cob", which had a wide range of meanings, one of which was "rounded lump" with overtones of large size. "Cobble", which appeared in the 15th century, simply added the diminutive suffix "le" to "cob", and meant a small stone rounded by the flow of water; essentially, a large pebble. It was these smooth "cobbles", gathered from stream beds, that paved the first "cobblestone" streets. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 mins (2009-06-06 00:28:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- wikipedia -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 mins (2009-06-06 00:31:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- could also be translated as voies pavées de galets Des vestiges de voies pavées de galets en Provence montrent l'excellente qualité des réalisations.
