Editing Kemerovo (section)

== Etymology ==
The city was named after the village of Kemerovo, named after the surname of the first settlers of the Kemerovs. The ending "ovo" suggests a toponymic transition through a personal name.<ref>Мурзаев Э. М. ''Словарь народных географических терминов''. М.: 1984 — С. 248</ref> The village gave its name to the Kemerovo mine that arose under it. In 1925, the city of Scheglovsk was formed from two neighboring villages Kemerovo and Scheglovo, which in 1932 was renamed to Kemerovo after the name of the mine. According to others, the name is based on the Turkic word ''kemer'', meaning "cliff, coast".<ref>''[[Мурзаев, Эдуард Макарович|Мурзаев Э. М.]], Мурзаева В. Э.''
