Neshkan, Russia
Neshkan ((ロシア語:Нешкан); Naskuk in the Yupik language, meaning ''head of a ringed seal'' after a nearby hill〔) is a rural locality (a ''selo'') in Chukotsky District of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Russia.〔 It is located on the shores of the Chukchi Sea on a sandy spit that divides Neskyipilgyn Lagoon from the sea, close to Idlidlya Island. Population: Municipally, Neshkan is subordinated to Chukotsky Municipal District and incorporated as Neshkan Rural Settlement.〔
==History==
Like many other villages in Chukotka, Neshkan was founded as a result of Soviet economics. In the 1950s, attempts to unify the itinerant reindeer herders of the area, consisting of the Nuteikvyn, Anayan, Tolgunen, and Vylkarney amongst others into a collective farm led to the creation of the village.〔Strogoff, p. 120f〕 The village took its name from the Chukchi word ''Naskuk'', meaning "Seal's Head", so called because one of the mountains surrounding the village looks like a seal's head when viewed from the sea.〔
Neshkan has seen some benefit in recent years from the money that has been generated by the exploitation of the oil and gas present in the area, as a number of multi-story houses were built in the village in 2005.〔(Official website of Chukotsky District )〕
