Etymology
The name of the town derives from the Bashkir/Tatar words meaning "a particolored lake".[4]
History
Founded in 1736 as a fortress on the border between Russian and Bashkir lands,[4] it later grew into a large Cossack stanitsa.[citation needed] The fortress was founded with the permission of Bashkir Tarkhan Taymas Shaimov, who was the owner of these lands.[citation needed] Town status was granted to it on October 25,[citation needed] 1951.[4]
