<HTML>Dear Simon

There are some difficulties in the translation or transliteration from Cyrilic (Russian) into Latin, especially this concerns geographical names.

Yenisei (Enisei) - Russian river flows northward into the Arctic Ocean
(The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001.)

The name 'Yenisey' they use in Encyclopedia Britannica, 2003.

Pechora - river rising in the North Urals, North European Russia.
(The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001.)

Zemlya = Land. As in 'Novaya Zemlya' (New Land), archipelago in the Arctic Ocean between the Barents and Kara Seas

The German spelling of these names may differ from the the English one

Regards,
