MARIUPOL

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 725 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAL-MAR
MARIUPOL , a seaport of
Russia
 , on the north shore of the Sea of
Azov
 , at the mouth of the Kalmius, in the government of Ekaterinoslav, 67 m. W. of Taganrog. Pop. (1900), 52,770, including the inhabitants of two suburbs, Mariinsk and Kara-su. The place is said to have been inhabited in remote times under the name of Adamakha; the present town was built only in 1779, by Greek emigrants from the Crimea. Its inhabitants are engaged in
agriculture
 , cattle-breeding, fishing, and the manufacture of leather, agricultural implements, iron goods and bricks. In export
trade
  Mariupol ranks next to Taganrog among the ports of the Sea of
Azov
 ; but its harbour is open to the
south
 -
east
  and shallow, though it is being gradually deepened by systematic dredging. The
principal
  articles of export are cereals, with some oilcake, phosphate and coal; but the
total
  value is only about 2,000,00o annually. The imports do not reach a
quarter
  of a million
sterling
 .
