Pomor
Pomors (помо́ры) are settlers of the White Sea coasts. Explorers from Novgorod entered the White Sea through Northern Dvina estuary and founded the Russian settlements along its coast. They reached as far as trans-Ural areas of Northern Siberia and founded the city of Mangazeya. They maintained a Northern trade route between Arkhangelsk and Siberia.
