	Spitsbergen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		However, this archipelago was known to Russian Pomors as early as in the 14th or 15th century.
		They concluded that the land they had discovered was a part of Greenland and, therefore, named it Grumant (Грумант).
		The first records of the archipelago can be found in Russian chronicles and Icelandic sagas of the 10th and 11th centuries, but they can also refer to the Jan Mayen island; others believe them to be first discovered by the Vikings/Norwegians in 1194.

		According to the hypothesis of Russian scholars the discovery of the archipelago and its primary development should be attributed to coast-dwellers from the North of Russia, the pomors, to whom Spitsbergen was known as early as the XIV-XV century.
		Pomors were mainly whaling and hunting fur and have left numerous evidence of their presence here, such as the tools of their trade, various remains of boats and settlements, and wooden crosses that, apart from being religious objects, served as seamarks.
		The Barentsburg settlement is characterised by a comprehensive industrial infrastructure and well-developed social amenities (a recreation centre, a sports complex, the "Pomor" museum, a hospital, a kindergarten).

		At what early period they first did so cannot be known, but the industry seems to have gained a certain importance before 1740.
		The Russians had their own nomenclature for various parts of the archipelago, thewhole of which they also called Grumant, a corruption of Green-land.
		A similar hunting industry was established by Norwegians early in the 18th century, but Spitsbergen declined in importance as a hunting-ground owing to the indiscriminate slaughter of game.
