 The Red Book of the Peoples of the Russian Empire
The Ingrian territory has received its name from the southern tributary of the Neva, the Inkere, and according to some theories the Izhorian tribe has its origins in the valley of Inkere.
On the basis of habitation, the Izhorian language is divided into 4 dialects: the Lower-Luga and Soikkola dialects which are spoken in the western part of Ingria, the Kheva dialect on the Izhorian Plateau, and the Oredezh or the Upper-Luga dialect which was spoken near the River Oredezh.
Estonian linguists (P. Ariste, A. Laanest) are of the opinion that it is a separate language, they claim that the dialect has developed from the ancient Karelian language and the Izhorians are the native inhabitants of the country, not later immigrants.

As to the Ingrians, the fact that they are foreigners too, is played down and a very special kind of relation is constructed between them and the Finnish state.
In respect to the Ingrian Finns, however, the state has obliged itself to let Ingrian Finns move to Finland, as well as to contribute to their livelihood in Ingria.
It is obvious that the conception of Ingrians as ethnic Finns has a bearing on their special status among the non-citizen immigrants, even if the matter is neither self-evident nor unquestionable.

Contra: The Ingrian flag is yellow, red and blue, and our page on pan-finnic colours seems to be mostly about shades of blue...
