It is hardly to believe that Russia has its own Indian tribes
but that fact is true. There is a population of about 1500
people who are originally Indians who live in Kamchatka
peninsula. They are some kind of mix between Indians and
Eskimos. They are called Itelmens. Some scientific studies have
revealed that Itelmens are related to a Tlingit tribe in Alaska
and they also have some common customs and tradition. Itelmens
are not only indigenous tribe which lives in Russia but they are
considered as most authentic one. Their community of about 1500
people is better educated than the other indigenous communities
but their life still remains pretty primitive. Here you are
watching a photos of an exhibition in a Moscow based photo
centers which was made in order to improve the knowledge about
existence of Indian culture on Russian soil.
