The legacy of the Karelian non-calendaric onomasticon in the toponymy of the Syamozerye region

Introduction. In recent decades, scholars in Karelia have been actively conducting research on the toponymy and anthroponymy of the region. The reconstruction of lost Karelian names (both calendrical and non-calendrical) preserved in toponyms holds significant value in the context of cultural heritage preservation, which underscores the relevance of this study. The aim of the research is to analyze the Karelian non-calendrical onomasticon based on the toponymic material from the Syamozerye area, where the Karelian-Livvik population resides.
