==Etymology== There is evidence that in ancient times there was a small settlement called Yaskove, which was destroyed by the Mongol-Tatars. The city got its name from the name of the river Ichen, and the name of the river itself was transformed into the affectionate form of Ichenka. Researchers associate the name of the river with Tatar ichen 'watering hole', 'parking for horses'.
