About

Feodosiia is a port and resort city on the southeastern coast of Crimea. Its Genoese remains and association with the painter Ivan Aivazovsky reflect its long maritime and cultural history.

Notes

Caffa/Kaffa names the medieval Genoese city; Kefe is the Crimean Tatar and Ottoman form. Theodosia also refers to the ancient settlement. UA follows internationally recognised sovereignty despite Russian occupation. Formal table-derived aliases are labelled separately from attested prose spellings. Coverage of romanization systems and historical aliases is not exhaustive.
