History:

Long time ago, there was a couple named Manoling and Saturnina. Their families were very much against their relationship that they were forced to meet and see each other in secrecy and in a place they do not even know its name. Despite of the anonymity of the place, they always spend time there. Passers-by were curious and puzzled of this couple. People would even here them call each other “Ling” (short for Manoling) and “Sat” (short for Saturnina). Despite of their parent’s anger, the couple eloped and built a small house in their anonymous meeting/dating place. They became the first residents. When saturnine gave birth, the couple named their son “Lingsat” as a symbol of their love. Through lingsat, the couple was able to reconcile with their families and lived happily. The people them decided to name the anonymous place “LINGSAT”, a place of faithful, happy and loving people.
