Toponym
The village is named after a hill of the same name - with a chuk. varan ( koryak. vaevvi ) - βthe yaranga polesβ.
In antiquity, this hill battle took place between the Chukchi and Koryak. The Chukchi, who were at the top, poured water over the mountain, making it impregnable, but the Koryaks tried to climb up. Then the Chukchi loaded the sledges with stones and laid them across the pole from the yarang and lowered them down. The sleds shot down a climbing opponent [3] .
