history

The village was first mentioned in 1370 under the name Novaci . The origin of the name Glimboca is not clear. According to some historians, it is of Dacian , according to others, of Slavic origin.

In the course of time the village appears under different names: 1370 Nouak , 1430 Nowak , 1433 Novakfalva , 1447 Noachfalva , 1475 Glamboka , 1580 Novakfalva , Glemboka , 1808 Glimboka , 1913 Novákfalva .

Until 1526 the village belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary . During the Ottoman rule (1526-1718) it belonged to the Vilâyet Timișoara. From 1718 to 1778 the village was part of the Habsburg crown domain Temescher Banat . In 1778 the Banat was awarded to the Kingdom of Hungary by Empress Maria Theresa . From 1849 to 1860 Glimboka was part of an independent crown land of the Voivodeship of Serbia and Timisoara Banat . After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise (1867), the Banat was annexed to the Kingdom of Hungary within the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary . The Treaty of Trianon on June 4, 1920 resulted in the Banat being divided into three , whereby Glimboca fell to the Kingdom of Romania .

In the first decade of the 20th century, the law for the Magyarization of place names (Ga. 4/1898) was applied, including the Magyarization of all toponyms on maps , land register extracts and city ​​maps . The official place name was Novakfalva . The Hungarian place names remained valid until the administrative reform of 1923 in the Kingdom of Romania , when the Romanian place names were introduced. The official place name has been Glimboca since then .
