Ur-man
"Видя это спокойствие на обращенном к нам лике необъятного пространства, я задавал себе вопрос: нужно ли видеть в этом призыв или угрозу? Кто мы, забравшиеся сюда? Сможем ли мы подчинить эту немую глушь, или она не подчинится? Я чувствовал величие этой глуши, немой и, быть может, лишенной слуха. Что таилось в ней?"
"I wondered whether the stillness on the face of the immensity looking at us two were meant as an appeal or as a menace. What were we who had strayed in here? Could we handle that dumb thing, or would it handle us? I felt how big, how confoundedly big, was that thing that couldn’t talk, and perhaps was deaf as well. What was in there?"
Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness
Urman comes from the Turkic word "thick, dark coniferous, impenetrable forest growing on the riverside areas of the taiga zone of Western and Middle Siberia".
