MOGILEV ON THE DNIESTER

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 646 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MIC-MOL
MOGILEV ON THE DNIESTER , a town of
Russia
 , in the government of Podolia, on the left bank of the Dniester, 57 M. E.S.E. of Kamenets-Podolsk. Pop. (1900), 25,141, nearly one-half
Jews
 ; the
remainder
  are Little Russians, Poles and a few Armenians. The Little-Russian inhabitants carry on
agriculture
 , gardening, wine-growing and mulberry culture. The
Jews
  and Armenians are engaged in a brisk
trade
  with Odessa, to which they send corn, wine, spirits and timber, floated down from
Galicia
 , as well as with the interior, to which they send manufactured wares imported from Austria.
Mogilev, named in honour of the Moldavian hospodar Mohila, was founded by
Count
 
Potocki
  about the end of the 16th century. Owing to its situation on the
highway
  from Moldavia to the Ukraine, at the passage across the
Dnieper
 , it developed rapidly. For more than 150 years its possession was disputed between the Cossacks, the Poles and the Turks. It remained in the hands of the Poles, and was,annexed to
Russia
  in 1795.
