Koda River, Russia

Jorge Stolfi: Created article from maps and refs. Effects of flooding. Figure 2 shows the river's location.


The '''Koda River''' is a tributary on the right (north) side of the [[Angara River]], 13 km northeast of the city of [[Kodinsk]], in the [[Kezhemsky District]] of [[Krasnoyarsk Krai]], [[Russia]].<ref name=jagus/>

The river gave the name to the town of Kodinsk. It is claimed to derive from the [[Evenki language|Evenki]] word ''kada'', meaning "cliff".<ref>Е. М. Поспелов. "Географические названия мира", Москва, 1998, p.&nbsp;207.</ref>

A seasonal settlement of the same name was the headquarters for the construction of the [[Boguchany Dam]] across the Angara, starting 1975.<ref name=angseq>G. K. Sukhanov and M. I.
