Kazachya Lopan (Cossack Water Well). An essay on geographical and historical associations.
Казачья Лопань, Kazachya Lopan - this geographical name seems to me something elementary.
Surely this is something like a dining room - from the word "лопать" ("to eat").
Maybe from "лопасть" "screw" "propeller"? But in ancient times, neither helicopters nor other vehicles propelled by rotating propellers existed.
As a result, I decided to look up the meaning of the name Казачья Лопань Kazachya Lopan (Cossack Water Well) (Cossack Lopan) in the Explanatory Dictionary by Vladimir Dal.
This is the rare case when almost no reasoning is required.
"Лопань, LOPAN, a word from the Don region, a (water) well on a swamp ... '
The settlement, apparently, was named after a well located either on the territory of the settlement or near the settlement.
Apparently, for the orientation of local residents and travelers, for all those who did not know that 'lopan' is a word that is mainly used in the Don region, the word 'Cossack' was gradually added. Perhaps the word "Cossack" was added to "Lopan" ("Water Well") after the settlement became the point of deployment of the military detachment of the Don Cossack Host.
Leaving aside the possibility of some hidden geographical features invisible to outsiders, the origin of the name is obvious - the settlement was named after a water well, which apparently had a very significant role in the life of local residents and travelers.
