Lisne or Lesnoye (Ukrainian: Лісне; Russian: Лесное) is a village in the Sudak Municipality of the Crimea, a territory recognized by a majority of countries as part of Ukraine and annexed by Russia as the Republic of Crimea.[2]
Lisne is located on Crimea's southern shore in the Crimean Mountains at an elevation of 250 m (820 ft).[1] Its population was 581 in the 2001 Ukrainian census.[2] Current population: 610 (2014 Census).[3]
During the 1680s in an Ottoman register of land holdings, the village, which was referred to as Soguksu, was part of the Sudak kadylyk in the Kefe Eyalet.[4] According to the register, there were 19 landowners in the towns, 17 of them were native to the village, and in total they owned 864 Dunams of land.[4]
Previously, the settlement was known as the Suuk-Su village (Crimean Tatar: Suvuq Suv). Following the forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR published a decree on May 18, 1948, renaming the settlement along with many others throughout Crimea from their native Crimean Tatar names to their current variants.[5]
