  We study the possibility of obtaining large nongaussian signatures in the
Cosmic Microwave Background in a general class of single-field nonlocal
hill-top inflation models. We estimate the nonlinearity parameter f_{NL} which
characterizes nongaussianity in such models and show that large nongaussianity
is possible. For the recently proposed p-adic inflation model we find that
f_{NL} ~ 120 when the string coupling is order unity. We show that large
nongaussianity is also possible in a toy model with an action similar to those
which arise in string field theory.
