The village of Chechkino, Yarkovsky district, Tyumen oblast is famous for being the largest ancient Tatar village. It is located in a convenient and beautiful place – the interfluve of Tobol and Tura. Now the village is part of the Old Aleksandrovsky village council of the Yarkovsky district, but at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. The yurts of Chichkinsky (Chechkinsky) belonged to Avazbakeevsky volost of the Yalutorovsky district.
Uninterrupted passage from Staroaleksandrovka to Chechkino is ensured by a modern, expensive bridge built at the beginning of the 21st century. A friendship bridge connects residents of different nationalities: if the Tatars have long lived on one bank, then the Komi-Zyryans on the other. Seven settlements – Staroaleksandrovka, Bolshoi Chechkino, Maloye Chechkino, Kurtyugan, Tarkhany, Yurtobor, Karban – the full composition of Mesopotamia.
