Kelich

Kelich stands on the Yum, a tributary of the Kosa in the upper Kama country. A map of 1734–1736 shows the settlement under the name Kulich. By the early nineteenth century court records refer to a separate Kelich volost of state peasants. Its river belongs to the network of waterways running through the forested lands west of the Kama, where Komi-Permyak and Russian communities lived among the tributaries and their valleys.
