Gnaw Bone, Indiana

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gnaw Bone is an unincorporated community in Brown County, Indiana.

The town's name derives from that of the original French settlement in the area, Narbonne, named in turn for the southern French city of that name. To the ears of English settlers at the time, "Narbonne" sounded like and came to be known as "Gnaw Bone."[citation needed]

Gnaw Bone is situated on state highway 46, between Nashville and Columbus. It is known for its flea markets and has been promoted as the "flea market capital of the world", as it is said to have one flea market for every five residents.[citation needed]
