Hiking
Bozum originated on a wide terp, which connected to a watercourse on the Middelzee. Despite its width, the village later developed outside the terp.
In 1260 the place was mentioned as Bosingum, in 1395 as Bozinghim, in 1400 as Bosinchum, in 1427 as Bosum, in 1482 as Bozigum, and in 1505 as Boeszum. The name is thought to indicate a dwelling place (heem/um) of the Bozinga family. Another explanation for the 'bozing' part could be a cow shed, from the Old Frisian word bôs (cow shed), but this is not considered very likely.
