History
The city of Grigoriopol is an ancient settlement, formerly known as Komorul, Chorna and Chorna-pe-Nistru. The territory of the region has long been inhabited, as evidenced by archaeological excavations near the villages of Butor , Tokmazey , Krasnogorka . In the IX-XII centuries. these lands were part of the Old Russian state and the Galicia-Volyn principality. Then Lithuanian feudal lords, Turks, Tatars dominated here. The first settlements of Moldavians in these places - Speya , Thea , Tashlyk , Butor, Delakeu , Malaesti and others. Arose in the XVII-XVIII centuries. In 1791, according to the Iasi Peace Treaty, these lands were transferred to Russia. Grigoriopol was founded in 1792 by decree of Catherine II and settled by Armenian immigrants. There are documents testifying to two versions in whose honor the city was named. According to one prescription, Prince Potemkin ordered that the new city of Armenians be named Grigoriopol “in honor of his angel”, and according to another prescription “he commanded that their city be built from the village in the name of St. Gregory the Illuminator of All Armenia”. [7] There were 3435 inhabitants in 1799, 6165 in 1887. In 1897 there were 7605 people (Moldovans - 3 740, Russians - 1 832, Jews - 832, Ukrainians - 707, Armenians - 406) [8] Created Armenian colony by the 30s. XIX century turned into a significant shopping center in the south of Russia. The main occupations of city residents, along with agriculture, are trade and crafts (primarily leather). Later, in connection with the loss of privileges, the significance of the city falls. The arriving Moldovan, Ukrainian and Jewish populations diversify the ethnic composition of the city. In subsequent years, until 1918, Grigoriopol was a contingent city of Tiraspol district of the Kherson province.
