Death at Novgorod
· Novgorod (represented by Ryurikovo Gorodishche), Veliky Novgorod, Russia

Wikimedia Commons · Public domain · file The conventional chronicle-based chronology places Rurik's death at Novgorod, ending the reign traditionally dated from 862 to 879. Rurik's historicity and the chronology are disputed. The coordinate is a representative point for chronicle-era Novgorod, not a documented death site.
