Etymology

Kortkeros' name was derived from two Komi words, кӧрт ("iron") and керӧс ("mountain"). Based on archaeological evidence and the names of locations (such as Körtyag, Lake Körtty, and the Körtvis River meaning "Iron Pine", "Iron Lake", and "Iron River" respectively), the village of Kortkeros was considered by archaeologists to be an ancient metallurgical centre. ^[8]
