  Mansi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mansi have been in contact with the Russian state at least since the 16th century when most of Western Siberia was brought under Russian control by Ermak.
The most prominent Mansi representative of this genre was the writer Yuvan Shestalov, who after the breakup of the Soviet Union converted to shamanism.
Since then he claims that the Mansi are in fact the descendants of the ancient Sumerians, a claim hardly shared by anyone else.

 NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Mansi
Mansi (obsolete: Voguls) are an endangered ethnic group living in Khantia-Mansia, an autonomous region within the Russian Federation, together with Khants.
The best-know publication of Mansi is his vast -- too vast, indeed -- edition of the Councils, "Sacrorum Conciliorum nova et amplissima collectio" (31 vols., folio, Florence and Venice, 1758-98), which was stopped by lack of resources in the middle of the Council of Florence of 1438.
Mansis have become an inconsiderable minority in their native territory: in 1938 they constituted 6.2% of the population, in 1989 0.6%.

Mansi belongs to the Ob-Ugrian sub-group of the Finno-Ugric branch of the Uralic languages.
Mansi is spoken along the western tributaries of the river Ob (mainly along the Northern Sosva and the Ljapin).
The Northern Mansi speakers live along the banks of the rivers Sosva (the villages Ust'-Manja, Janypaul', Njaksymvol', Khanglasy, Khulim-Sunt, Menkja, Sangitur, Nil'dino, Kimkjasuj, Patrasuj, Kugi, Sartynja, Tobol'dino, Altatump, Anejevo, Igrim, Ljuljukary, Vozetur, Rezimovo, Malejevka, Narykary, Protochnoe, Vizhakary); Sygva (the villages Schekurja, Saranpaul', Khangla, Pulak, Khoshlog, Khurumpaul, Lombovozh) and Upper Lozva (the village Suevat).

 The Mansi
The Mansi living to the west of the Ural were most probably christened already at the end of the 16th and the beginning of the 17th century.
The Mansi who lived west to the Ural were first to be deprived of their lands and to become economically dependent of the Russians.
Today, the Mansi are settled mostly in the villages on the North-Sosva and its feeders and in a couple villages near the river Ob which are mainly inhabited by Khanties.

 The Red Book of the Peoples of the Russian Empire
The Mansi villages are usually situated in the river valleys (Konda, Lozva, Pelym, Sosva, Tavda) which range from the Ural mountains to the lower reaches of the Ob.
As a proportion of the total population, the number of the Mansis has decreased: in 1938 the percentage of the Mansis in the population of their district was 6.2 %, in 1959 4.6 %, in 1970 2.5 %, in 1979 1.1 %, and in 1989 only 0.6 %.
The Mansi attacked the Russians for instance in 1581 on the lands of Stoganoff and in 1582 at Cheryn.

Eyewitness sightings of Champ are relatively rare, and a sighting accompanied by a photograph of the calibre of Mansi’s is perhaps unique in the whole field of cryptozoology.
For example, Mansi cannot provide the negative, which might show evidence of tampering, neither can she provide other photographs from the roll (which might show other angles of the same object, or perhaps ‘test’ photos of a known object from an odd position).
Mansi is unable to locate the site of the photo, which would help to determine a number of things, including the size of the object, and the photo itself shows virtually no objects of known scale by which to judge the creature’s size or distance.

 NUPI - Centre for Russian Studies
The Mansi probably first emerged from a process of ethnogenesis that occurred around the first century A.D., when migrating Ugrians from the south mixed with existing hunting and fishing tribes of the trans-Ural mountain region.
The Mansis were identified as an independent group in written sources of the 11th c., but then under the name "Yugras".
The Mansi, like other indigenous groups, found their land decreasing rapidly, and more and more of them gave up their traditional way of life for jobs at construction sites, oil and natural gas wells, and mass-production factories.

The first written mention of the people inhabiting the "northern lands" was recorded in the Tale of Bygone Years in 1096.
In fall 1585, shortly after Ermak's death, Cossacks led by voevoda (army commander) Ivan Mansurov founded the first Russian fortified town, Obskoi, at the mouth of the Irtysh on the right bank of the Ob.
The Mansi and Khanty lands thus became part of the Russian state, which was finally secured by the founding of the cities of Pelym and Berezov in 1592 and Surgut in 1594.
