Ancient Lamers

At the time of Ivan the Terrible, there was no optical fiber in Russia. Instead, there was a path from the Varangians to the Greeks.

It passed through the water from the Baltic to the Black Sea. And only in one place ships dragged overland.
In outskirts of Moscow.

The wolf was on the Lama River.
Wolf on the Lama.
Volokolamsk.



And those who dragged were called LAMERS.

So this word has come to our days. Only for some reason today LAMERS are called those who do not drag at all.

Such is evolution and etymology.
By the way, the first current generator with the first Ilyich bulb is on the Lam. Works.
