Etymology edit

The name of the locality derives from nelma, a kind of fish that the rivers around the locality are rich of.[6]

Kolyma Yukaghirs edit

Nelemnoye is known for having a significant population of Kolyma Yukaghirs (at the time when the total population of the locality was 296, 168 of them were Yukaghirs). It's the only place to have a Kolyma Yukaghir cultural center and a school where the Southern Yukaghir language is being taught.[6]

The music video for the song "Ulegen Nume" by the Yukaghir singer Irina Duskulova was shot in Nelemnoye.

Nikolai Spiridonov (aka Tekki Odulok), the first Yukaghir writer and scientist, was born in 1906 in Ottur-Kyuyol, near the modern location of Nelemnoye.[7]
