1693. A geographical dictionary representing the present and ancient names by Edmund Bohun.

Precop, Pericop, Procopias, Procopiana, Taurica Chersonesus, Tartaria Precopensis, Taphrae, a City, and strong Fort in the enterance of the Neck of Crim Tartary: from whence that Peninsula is sometimes called Precopska: and the Tartarian Inhabitants, the Precopensian Tartars. After the Muscovites obtained that great Victory over the Tartars in 1689. (wherein they slew thirty thousand of them, with one of the Han's Sons, upon the place); the Tartars retiring into the Crim, abandoned Pericop to the Conquerours; which is a most important Pass.
