DEZHNEV, SEMEN IVANOVICH

(About 1 605-1 673)

(to be continued)

Rumores among the Chukchi a century later, of men like Russians living on the

coast opposite their, i.e., in Alaska, were taken as indicating possible survival of those

lost, and their intermarriage with the Eskimo.

Exploring parties were instructed to keep an eye out for such people as late as the

1 820s, until it was decided that the quest was hopeless.

The remaining three kochi continued eastward, and during August rounded what

they called the Bolshoi Kamennyi Nos’ (Great Rocky Cape) the easternmost point of

the Russian continent, now called Cape Dezhnev.

While rounding the cape, one of the three boats was wrecked, and the men were

distributed between Popov’s and Dezhnev’s boats. In what would later be known as

Bering Strait, Dezhnev landed “on an island” where he saw “toothed people”

(Eskimos).
