Ovidiopol

Ovidiopol (Ukrainian: Овідіополь, translit.: Ovidiopol; Russian: Овидиополь, translit.: Ovidiopol' ; Turkish: Hacıdere ) is a coastal town in Odessa Oblast, Ukraine. It is located at around 46°14′41″N 30°26′41″E / 46.24472°N 30.44472°E / 46.24472; 30.44472Coordinates: 46°14′41″N 30°26′41″E / 46.24472°N 30.44472°E / 46.24472; 30.44472.

The town was named after Ovid, the Roman poet, based on the claim of Dimitrie Cantemir in his Descriptio Moldaviae that a local lake near Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi (probably the Dniester Liman itself, on whose eastern shore the town is located) was named in Romanian Lacul Ovidului (Ovid's Lake).
