History

Pre-history

The name of the village comes from the Chukchi word I'nchuvin, meaning "a cut-off nose tip". This strange appellation is derived from a nearby cliff with a large rock at its base that is said to look like a nose cut from a face.[10] There is a Chukchi dancing troupe in the village called Vyrykvyn.[9]

Excavations carried out by the Museum of Chukotka Heritage Centre and the State Museum of Northern Art at the Palpeygak (Russian: Пальпейгак) site (named after a nearby eponymous creek) revealed finds indicating that the area had been inhabited for the last 3000 years[11]

Twentieth Century

In 1945 Inchoun had the best Soviet reading rooms in the Okrug.[11] In the 1950s, construction began on wooden houses in the village and by 1957, the first nine families moved out of their Yaranga and into these new houses.[11]

Demographics

The population of the village as of 2009 was 398[11] an increase on the estimate in 2008 of 365,[9] which itself was down from the figure given in March 2003 of 373 (of which 353 were indigenous peoples).[12] The official census results indicate a slight reduction on the 2009 estimate to 387,[2] of whom 185 were male and 202 female.[3]

Inchoun is 150 miles from the district centre Lavrentiya[11] and is not connected to any other part of the world by permanent road. However, there is a small network of roads within the settlement including:[13]
