World Tour 2013-2014 - day 30 This is a annual rein race for Even ethnic group. SHe was from far the most beautiful girl in the assembly. We wait the end of the day so that the sun was low not to make ungracious shadow on her face. We stand up directly on the ice and many people observing the action from far but nobody, neither the kids, came to disturb. In China or India village such quietness making a portrait would have been impossible! Topolinoe village is the administrative center of the Evenes ethnic group. Most of them neither got out from Yakutia and some still live from nomadic reindeer farming. This village is built from a ancient GOULAG jail. All Siberia lake places were inhabited side the Neolithic. In 3rd century the Huns migrations trough Centre Asia had big influence on migrations of others populations from centre Asia to Siberia. Later some Turkish civilizations migrated there and made the Khakasse Empire, but the north-eastern parts of Siberia kept in a kind of prehistorically lifestyle. Genghis Khan destroyed this Empire at around 1206, leading Siberia civilization to decline. 500 years later some Tatars (old Turkish population integrated in Genghis Khan conquests) migrated to east Siberia and made the Khanat of Siberia (Baikal and Yakutia and Bouriatia are out of it) but where fatly conquered by Ivan the Terrible in 1580 (with help of Cossack, coming from Volga civilization). After Ivan the terrible, Russia continued to progress until Bering Strait since it was interested by fur. Cossack Semion Dejnev arrived in Behring Strait in 1648.
