'''Azov''' ({{lang-ru|Азов}}) is a mountain in [[Central Ural]], [[Russia]]. It is located 8&nbsp;km from [[Polevskoy]] next to the [[Zyuzelsky]] village. It's one of the [[natural monument]]s of Russia.<ref>[http://docs.cntd.ru/document/801104370 Об утверждении перечней особо охраняемых природных территорий, расположенных в Свердловской области]</ref><br />
<br />
According to [[Aleksandr Matveyev (linguist)|Aleksandr Matveyev]], the configuration of the rocks gives a reason to believe that the name of the mountain derives from the [[Tatar language|Tatar]] word ''azaw teš'' (азау теш), meaning "[[molar tooth]]". In other [[Turkic languages]] the word means "fang", "edge", or "sting".<ref>Матвеев А. К.

Bers believed that in the [[Iron Age]] it served as the sacrificial place.<br />

According to popular beliefs, the creature from the local folktales called [[Azovka]] (lit. "the Azov girl") lives inside Mount Azov.<ref>{{cite book|last=Blazhes|first=Valentin |authorlink=Valentin Blazhes |title= Bytovanie folklora v sovremennosti, na materiale jekspedicij 60-80 godov|script-title = ru:Бытование фольклора в современности, на материале экспедиций 60-80 годов|url=http://elar.urfu.ru/bitstream/10995/19386/1/fu7-1983-02.pdf|series=Фольклор Урала|volume=7|year=1983|publisher=[[The Ural State University]]|location=Sverdlovsk|language=Russian|pages=7|chapter=Рабочие предания родины П.
