Golosov Ravine
Golosov Ravine (Голосов Овраг), also known as Vlasov (Власов) ravine〔(Data from «Улицы Москвы. Старые и новые названия». М., ИЦ «Наука,техника,образование», 2003 ) (Russian)〕 is a deep ravine in Moscow, Russia, between the Kolomenskoe Hill and Dyakovo Hill. The ravine has several springs and a brook streaming at its bottom. Up in the ravine, on the left side of it, there is a Neopagan shrine, organized around two venerated "sacred stones". In years 2006-2007, during the renovation of Kolomenskoe sides of the ravine were reinforced, and pedestrian paths and stairs were created on its sides.
== History ==
Since ancient times this ravine has always been a bit of a mystery. Inexplicable things constantly happened here in the past. For example, one amazing story was described in the 17th-century sources. In 1621, a small Tatar's cavalry detachment appeared out of nowhere directly in front of the gates to the Tsar's palace in Kolomna. It was surrounded and captured immediately by the soldiers, who guarded the entrance to the Palace. During interrogation, the horsemen told that they were the warriors of the Crimean khan Devlet I Giray, whose armies had tried to occupy Moscow in 1571, but were defeated. Out of fear of being chased, the cavalry descended into the fog-shrouded Golosov ravine. The tatars spent there, as it appeared at that time, just a few minutes, but when they eventually found themselves on the road again, it turned out that a half of century had already passed. One of the captives, Murza, noticed that the fog was unusual, of light green colour, but none of them paid attention to it in fear of the pursuers. Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich ordered to undertake an inquiry, which showed that the tatars probably told the truth. Even all of their weapons, armour and equipment did not comply with the existing standarts resembling the outdated models from the middle of the 16th century.〔http://www.gazetanv.ru/article/?id=167〕
The mystical stories continued further. In the 19th century, numerous cases of mysterious disappearance of the residents of neighboring villages were recorded in the documents of the Moscow province's police office. One such story was published in the newspaper "Moscovkie vedomosti" in July 1832. Two peasants, Arhip Kuzmin and Ivan Botchkarev, while taking a short cut home at night from a neighbouring village, decided to pass through Golosov ravine. There was a heavy fog that filled the valley, where a corridor suddenly appeared. The peasants stepped down into it and met with the hairy humanlike creatures, who tried to show them a way back by signs. A few minutes later the peasants came up out of the ravine, and continued on their way. When they finally reached up their native village, it turned out that two decades had already passed. Their elderly wives and children hardly recognized them. The police intervened in this case. At the insistence of investigators, an investigation experiment was carried out in the ravine, during which one of the time-travelers dissolved in the fog once again and never returned.
Down through the centuries, people have been periodically seen hairy human-resembling creatures in the surroundings of Golosov ravine. Such cases were mentioned not only in ancient and medieval chronicles, but also in the Soviet periodical press. So, in 1926, a local militsioner came across a "hairy wild man" in the fog, who was over two metres (6.6 ft) tall. The policeman pulled out his pistol, but the strange creature instantly dissolved in the fog. Local schoolchildren joined the search for the unusual guest, but they were unable to detect its traces. However, one of the capital newspapers published the article "The Young Pioneers Catching the Leshy" written by the journalist A.Ryazantsev.
