Geography

Located on a mountain 10 km from the bay of the Coal- Anadyr Bay of the Bering Sea . The distance from the city ​​of district value is 200 km .

The settlement is the most eastern Russian settlement in the Eastern Hemisphere of the Earth.

Toponym

The area around the village in Kerek is Gachgatagyn (Khachatain), which means β€œthe place where the bird markets end.” This is due to the fact that there were large bird bazaars of cormorants and gulls on two rocky entrance promontories of the bay ( Barykova and Otvezny), and a lowland, where these birds were completely absent, began right behind the capes, deep in the bay [3] .

The Chukchi name Gachggatagyn is translated literally as β€œthe limit of bird aggregation” ( Chuk. Gachga from the gatqe β€œbird” + - tagyn / -agyn β€œlimit”) [4] .

The modern name Beringovsky, according to one of the versions, received by its location on the coast [5] . The Great Soviet Encyclopedia states that the village is named after V. Bering [6] .

History

In 1826, the Russian sloop "Senyavin" under the command of Fyodor Petrovich Litke entered the Coal Bay to describe and study the shores of the Bering Sea. In 1886, an expedition landed here under the direction of Captain A. A. Ostolopov on the Cruiser clipper, powerful coal layers were discovered in the bay. This fuel was later used by ships calling at the bay, which is why they called it coal [7] .

Geological studies for the industrial development of this field began in 1933-1934. All-Union Arctic Institute, then the exploration expedition of the Main Directorate of the Northern Sea Route. In March 1941, the Bukhtugol mine was founded here, which in 1966 became the Beringovskaya mine. In August 1941, the first settlers arrived here from Vladivostok on two steamers - 176 people, mostly miners and builders. Light barrack huts were built on the shore of the bay [8] . In 1946, the village was formed Coal.

In April 1957, the Beringovsky district was re-formed as part of the Chukotka National District, with the administrative center in the village of Ugolny, which was located on the coast of the bay. In 1957, Coal was renamed to Beringovsky, in the same year a school was opened here [9] .

In 1975, the district center was moved to the village of Nagorny, located 10 km north of the bay. In 2000, the village of Nagorny [10] was included in the line of the Beringovsky settlement.

In 2008, the Beringovsky district was merged with the Anadyr municipal district with the center in the village of Ugolnye Kopi [11] .

Village Description

The town-forming enterprise is the Nagornaya mine. As of 2015, the mine is scheduled for closure due to unprofitable mining. At the same time, a very promising project capable of giving a qualitative impetus to the development of the settlement is the development of nearby large coal deposits with the simultaneous construction of a new seaport [28] .

Beringovsky is built up mainly with five-story houses. There are a district hospital, a pharmacy, a secondary school, a kindergarten, two libraries, an art school, a post office, a communications center, a hotel.
