History

Olya is one of the oldest fishing villages in Astrakhan Oblast. The word Olya, which is of Kalmyk origin, means small hatchet describing the shape of the island on which Olya was originally located. Other villages are also on the islands, to the south and west, all separated by small channels. Chantais two kilometers south while Karantina is three kilometers southwest. Olya was originally between the coast and the mouth of the Bakhtimir, but the sea and the river receded and eventually the small channels separating the villages silted up. Olya and villages around it gradually merged with each other, forming a locality on maps designated as the village of Olya. Local names for different parts of the village include Forest for the southern part and Korya in the southwest. The name Olya refers to the northern part of town, directly adjacent to Bakhtemir.
