	THE NENETS
		The Nenets live in the polar regions of northeastern Europe and northwestern Siberia from the Kanin Peninsula on the White Sea to the Yenisey delta, occupying the central place among the Samoyed territories.
		The native land of the Nenets is the tundra and forest tundra, a country of permafrost, numerous rivers and vast marshy areas.
		In 1932 the Nenets literary language was established on the basis of the Bolshaya Zemlya vernacular (one of the Central vernaculars), using the Latin alphabet.

		The aim of this paper is to analyse the cultural aspect of Nenets reindeer-herding: the connection between reindeer-herding and the general perception of the world of the Nenets.
		Observing the Nenets in different everyday situations, it became clear to me that the large number of family members is necessary to cope with the tasks of the reindeer-herders.
		The sacrificial animal of the Nenets is the reindeer.

	TURAN - YAMAL-NENETS
		The earliest sedentary peoples of Yamal hunted caribou on the tundra, harpooned seals, walruses and beluga on the waters and ice of the Kara Sea, and caught white fish in hundreds of tundra rivers and lakes.
		The Nenets are scattered throughout Yamal, while the Khanty reside mainly in the Panayevsky village council in the southern part of the region.
		The average life expectancy among Northern peoples in the Tyumen region was 49 years (43 for males and 54 for females) in 1978-1979, or 20 years less than analogous estimates for the entire population of the region.

	Comparative Nenets-Nganasan Multimedia Dictionary. Introduction
		Nenets is spoken in a vast area from the White Sea in the west to the mouth of the Yenisei River in the east, and from the shore of the Arctic Ocean in the north to the edge of the boreal coniferous forest in the south (see the Map).
		Although the Nenets are nomadic people residing mainly in the tundra, their camps are also found in the forest area along some tributaries of the Ob River and along the Pur River.
		The Nenets and the Nganasan became on their own and moved to the Arctic area approximately in the middle of I millennium A.D. Eventually, the Samoyed people diverged both territorially and linguistically.

		Although the question about the origin of the Nenets is still a great topic of argument for scientists (see Golovnev, Zaytsev 1992: 14-15; Homich 1995: 36-41), they have come to more or less the same conclusion that the Nenets already lived in their present land before the beginning of this millennium (Kopytoff 1955: 6).
		The supporters of another version claim that the Nenets reindeer herding is of local origin and that it had developed gradually from the hunting of wild reindeer by the indigenous people (see Golovnev, Zaytsev 1992: 29-31).
		That is why it is not amazing that the majority of the 7701 Nenets in the Yamal peninsula (January 1991 51.7%) has maintained their traditional lifestyle and deals with nomadic herding, being one of the largest and most compact reindeer herding groups in Eurasia (Pika, Bogoyavlensky 1995: 64).

	Fighting for the future of Forest Nenets
		With their indigenous neighbours, Tundra Nenets in the north, Northern Selkup in the east, Eastern Khanty in the south, and Northern Khanty in the west, the Forest Nenets are on relatively good terms, although old tensions occasionally surface and new problems, mainly caused by Russian interference, may arise.
		The Forest Nenets are divided into a number of subgroups, the largest one of which inhabits the basin of the river Pur, flowing into the Ob’; Bay of the Arctic Ocean, and covers most of Pur County, with its centre Tarko-Sale, in the Yamal Nenets Autonomous District.
