Summary
When Russians penetrated Siberia in the late sixteenth century they found most of the area inhabited by reindeer herders or nomadic pastoralists speaking Uralic, Turkic, Mongolic, and Tungusic languages. Western Siberia contained Khanty (Ostyak) and Mansi (Vogul) dialects belonging to the Ugrian subgroup of Uralic. Across the northeast were Nenets, Enets, and Nganasan tribes speaking Uralic languages of the Samoyedic branch.
