Over the course of time, unfortunately, we lost to the early history of Moscow.In this connection, so no one was able to give a clear explanation as to how the events or circumstances related to the foundation of Moscow.Also, there is no answer, for some reason, on this place was built the capital, and not in any other place of the Great Russia.
In addition, significantly unknown foundation year in Moscow.Presumably by "Pantheon Russian Emperor", Moscow was founded in the year 880, at the end of the ninth century.According to historical records, during this year, Oleg, who was not yet the guardian of Igor's throne and was only Urmanskoye prince, came to the Moscow River, then referred to as currants or Samorodinkoyu.Here, at the mouth of the river Neglinnaya it was founded the town, which was named after the river - Moscow.After that, for over two and a half centuries, more precisely 267 years, nothing was known about Moscow.
first mention of it in the pages of the Ipatiev Chronicle in 1147.This year there was a meeting of the Suzdal Prince Yuri Dolgoruky and his ally - Novgorod-Seversky Prince Svyatoslav II of Kiev.It is worth noting that for a long time it was attributed to the foundation in Moscow this year.Then Moscow was the small size of the settlement, owned by the rich and famous man, Stepan piles, and its called Kuchkovo.
Historical documents stated that the House of Stepan Kuchko while located near the modern clean ponds and the place noisy Kremlin impenetrable dense forest.Overall, while there were six villages Kuchkovo Sparrow, Vysotsky, Kudrin Kulishki, Simonov and Sushchevo.There is speculation that Kuchko Stepan was born in Novgorod, as his name is often found in connection with the mention of Novgorod Zemtsov.
Foundation of Moscow, the date of which is unknown and, despite the fact that in 1997 it was noted 850 years, causing a lot of controversy among historians.The discussions among experts is even the name of the Russian capital - "Moscow".There are many versions.The main is the name given to the river that flows in a given place.
According to the linguists, in ancient times there was a Slavic word which was the root of the "Mosquito", which means "sticky, squishy."In the Russian language to the words with this root include "Moscote" having derivatives "moskotilnye" (wet).That is why it is said about the "mozgloy", "chilly" weather.According to this version, the name "Moscow", which was the original "Mosquito", comes from the old Slavic word "wet".
Despite the fact that no reliable data about the event, as the basis of Moscow, with the success of their weight compensates folded legends that both popular and not very truthful and bear little resemblance to the truth.There are eight major legends describing the foundation of Moscow.Some more plausible, we described above, others remain a mystery to many generations in the future.However, in spite of everything, a little town, once based at the mouth of the river, it was able to grow to gigantic proportions.
