[edit] History
The area in the vicinity of the settlement was populated during neolithic times, and a toggled harpoon head found in a grave indicated that there was a viable walrus hunting economy present in the area around 3000 BCE.[10]
The settlement was established by villagers from Markovo towards the end of the 19th or beginning of the 20th century.[11] The village is located in the immediate area where famous Chukchi reindeer herder Tenevil lived and the main economic driver of the settlement is still traditional reindeer husbandry aided by the fact that more than two thirds of the population of the village are of indigenous origin.[11]
Ust-Belaya was formerly the administrative center of Anadyrsky District.
