Notes

Oka (Russian: Ока́) is a river in central Russia, the largest right tributary of the Volga. It flows through the regions of Oryol, Tula, Kaluga, Moscow, Ryazan, Vladimir, and Nizhny Novgorod and is navigable over a large part of its total length, as far upstream as to the town of Kaluga. Its length exceeds 1,500 kilometres (930 mi). The Russian capital Moscow sits on one of the Oka›s tributaries—the Moskva River.

Tsna (Russian: Цна ) is a river in Tver Oblast, Russia. It belongs to Baltic Sea (Neva River) basin. Its source is situated in the Valdai Hills close to the drainage divide between Neva and Volga (Caspian Sea) basins, thus the river was once an important trade route. The town of Vyshny Volochyok is situated upon Tsna.

Gamayune is a prophetic bird of Russian folklore. It is a symbol of wisdom and knowledge and lives on an island in the east, close to paradise. Like the Sirin and the Alkonost, the Gamayune is normally depicted as a large bird with a woman›s head.
