About
Chornomorske is a coastal settlement on the Tarkhankut Peninsula in western Crimea, Ukraine. Nearby are the remains of the ancient Greek settlement of Kalos Limen.
Notes
Crimean settlement on the Tarkhankut Peninsula, not Chornomorske near Odesa or the city Chornomorsk. Ukrainian national form is main in English; the attested French reference form is Tchornomorske. Aqmeçit and Aqmescit should not be silently conflated. Record certainty includes transliteration and alias coverage; formal system outputs are not all attested press forms.
