Koshekhablsky District (Russian: Кошеха́бльский райо́н; Adyghe: Кощхьэблэ район) is an administrative[1] and a municipal[2] district (raion), one of the seven in the Republic of Adygea, Russia. It is located in the east of the republic and borders with Kurganinsky District of Krasnodar Krai in the north and northeast, Labinsky District of Krasnodar Krai in the east, Mostovsky District of Krasnodar Krai in the south, Maykopsky District in the west, and with Shovgenovsky District in the northwest. The area of the district is 606.7 square kilometers (234.2 sq mi).[3] Its administrative center is the rural locality (an aul) of Koshekhabl.[1] Population: 30,422(2010 Census);[4] 31,296(2002 Census);[8] 29,766(1989 Census).[9] The population of Koshekhabl accounts for 23.8% of the district's total population.[4]

Etymology

The name "Koshekhablsky" is derived from the Circassian words "Kosho" (a Shapsug family name) and "Habl" (meaning neighborhood).

History

Koshekhablsky District was established within Azov-Black Sea Krai on December 31, 1934[7] as a result of the downsizing of the krai's districts. On December 7, 1956, the district was enlarged as portions of abolished Shovgenovsky District were merged into it. However, as the enlargement policy did not prove effective, the district was restored in its previous borders on March 21, 1958. On February 1, 1963, Koshekhablsky District was abolished[7] and merged into newly created Shovgenovsky Rural District. As the new system of rural districts turned out to be inefficient as well, Koshekhablsky District was re-instated in its pre-1963 borders on January 12, 1965.[7]
