Etymology
First mentioned in a Russian chronicle from 1054 as being conquered by prince Iziaslav_I_of_Kiev Iziaslav, as orv осекъ Кедипивъ en abatis of Кедипивъ, with the second part being translated in the chronicle as orv Слънца Рука hand of the sun, as if from Old Estonian *käδen päivä ("day/sun of the hand"), which seems to be a mistranslation. More likely, the original form was Old Estonian *käδen pää ("head of the hand").
