The Haichul (Ukrainian: Гайчул) or Haichur (Ukrainian: Гайчур) is a river in southern Ukraine and a tributary of the Vovcha.
Etymology
The river originated from the Tatar name "Gaichur", where Tatar hordes gathered before raids on Zaporizhzhia and left-bank Ukraine. The name later changed to "Haichul" in Ukrainian as mentioned by Dmytro Yavornytsky.[1]
Geography
The river originates near the village of Chervone Ozero, and flows mainly northwest. It flows into the Vovcha near the village of Pysantsi. The river is 130 km (81 mi) long, with a basin size of 2,140 km2 (830 sq mi) and a slope of 1.1m / km. The valley is between 4.5 km (2.8 mi) to 5 m (16 ft) wide, with moderate winding riverbed and several ponds.[2]
