	Endangered Languages of Siberia - The Aliutor Language
		In the XX century influence of Russian language intensified due to the transition of Kerek to sedentary life, as well as due to the introduction of Russian as a language of instruction in schools.
		A milestone in the history of the language was introduction of Russian as a language of instruction in boarding schools, where children were taught, while their parents were occupied with the work at settlements, usually located in tundra, rather far from the village itself.
		The earliest records of Koryak language, dated back to the end of the XVII-beginning of the XVIII century (in the materials of N. Vitzen, I. Stralenberg, G.F. Mueller, etc.) are rather fragmentary and incomplete.

	Koryak Texts: Introduction
		The Koryak dialects may be divided into two large groups,--the western branch, which includes the Maritime Koryak of Penshina Bay and also the Reindeer Koryak; and the eastern branch, which includes the Maritime Koryak of Kamchatka, and also the inhabitants of the villages RekI'nnok, Pustoretzk, and Podkaguirnoye, to the south of Parapolski Dol.
		The natives are well aware of this difference; and in the tales of the Penshina Koryak, as may be seen from the texts, the use of r in the pronunciation of certain words is ascribed to evil spirits.
		In Koryak, with its constant dialectical changes from a to e, this pair of vowels is excluded from the action of the vocalic harmony just described, and both a and e are considered as neutral.
