Abshineh (Persian: ابشينه) is a village in, and the capital of, Sangestan Rural District in the Central District of Hamadan County, Hamadan province, Iran.

Etymology

The name Ābshīneh is derived from Western Middle Iranian *āp-šēnag, which ultimately comes from Proto-Iranian *āp- + *xšaina- + *-ka-. The first element means "water", and the second means "shiny". Thus, the name Ābshīneh originally meant "a place where the water shines".
