The native village of Koyuk is located at its mouth. The two major tributaries are the Peace and Salmon rivers; other tributaries include Dime and Sweepstakes.〔 (full text )〕 ==Etymology== Its Inuit named as Tebenkof Eskimos, reported by Captain Tebenkov (1852, map 2), IRN, as ''Kvyguk'' or ''Kvieguk''. The Western Union Telegraph Expedition spelled the name ''Koikpak'' ("big river"). The Seward map of 1867 gives ''Koipak'', and later as ''Kayuk'', ''Koyuk'', and ''Kuyuk''. The Kanguksuk is also known as the ''Left Fork of the Kviguk'' (Koyuk). The present spelling comes from Alfred Hulse Brooks', 1900 United States Geological Survey. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Koyuk River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
