Yerofey Pavlovich Khabarov-Svyatitsky[a] (Russian: Ерофей Павлович Хабаров-Святитский; 1603 – after 1671), was a Russian entrepreneur and adventurer, best known for his exploring the Amur river region and his attempts to colonize the area for Russia. For background, see Russian–Manchu border conflicts.
The major Russian city of Khabarovsk, and the small town and railway station Yerofey Pavlovich (located on the Trans-Siberian railroad in Amur Oblast) bear his name. The 1963-built icebreaker Ledokol-5 was renamed Yerofey Khabarov in 1966.
A native of the Veliky Ustyug area in the northern European Russia, Khabarov was a manager for the Stroganovs at the saltworks in Solvychegodsk.[1] In 1625, Khabarov sailed from Tobolsk to Mangazeya. , He left the town with his expedition three years later and reached the Kheta River (eastern part of Taimyr). In 1630, Khabarov took part in a voyage from Mangazeya to Tobolsk. In 1632–1641, he reached the Lena River and founded a farming settlement with saltworks along the Lena at the mouths of the Kuta and Kirenga Rivers. Now his descendants live in Stavropol.[citation needed]
