The paragraph of history
Funny, but in the Chukchi village of Lavrentiya sounds like "Kytryn", which translates as "dry pebble spit". And his usual name, he received not from anyone, but directly from Sir James Cook - a famous British traveler. Sailing in 1778 along the bay in which the settlement is located, he gave him a name according to the church calendar in honor of St. Lawrence. And it was from the bay that the village got its name.
