Kamianka-Dniprovska (Ukrainian: Ка́м'янка-Дніпро́вська, IPA: [ˈkɑmjɐnkɐ d⁽ʲ⁾n⁽ʲ⁾iˈprɔu̯sʲkɐ]; Russian: Каменка-Днепровская) is a city in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Ukraine. It served as the administrative center of the former Kamianka-Dniprovska Raion until that raion was merged into Vasylivka Raion in 2020. Population: 12,117 (2022 est.).[1]
It is located on the south bank of a west-flowing part of the Dnieper River. On the north bank is the town of Nikopol. About 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) east is the power plant at Enerhodar. The river is now part of the Kakhovka Reservoir. The landscape of the area is flat and steppe-like.
History[edit]
In 1701 Russia built a fort here called Kammeny Zaton ("Stoney Backwater"). It interacted with the Cossack settlements on the north side of the river.
In 1972 the population was 16 900 people.[2]
In January 1989 the population was 17 906 people.[4][3]
In January 2013 the population was 13 495 people.[5]
The city is home to the Kamianka-Dniprovska District Historical and Archeological Museum.[6] An archeological site near Kamianka-Dniprovska gives evidence suggesting that the city was once the capital of the ancient Scythian Kingdom[citation needed].
