General Information Mansi (self-name - man) is a people in Western Siberia, the indigenous population of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug. (6.6 thousand). The Mansi are mostly distributed there over the right tributaries of the Ob River (Fig. 1) Fig. 1. The area of the distribution and economic activities of the Mansi A small group lives in the Sverdlovsk Region in the Ivdel River near Tagil. The Mansi number in the Russian Federation is 8.3 thousand. Scientific literature treats the Mansi together with the Khanty as Ob Ugrians. Before the beginning of the 20 th century, the Russians called the Mansi the Vogul or Ostyak . Anthropologically, the Mansi are the Sub-Uralic or Uralic proper types of the Uralic transition race. The Mansi language belongs to the Ugric subgroup of Finno-Ugric languages of the Uralic family. There are seven dialects, whose divergence is so great as to prevent mutual understanding. Since 1930, the writing has been based on the Middle-Sosva dialect and the Russian alphabet. The following ethnic groups are distinguished: the northern (Sosva and Upper-Lozva dialects), southern or Tavda, eastern (Kondinsky dialect), Western (Kondinsky dialect), Western (Pelym, Vagil, Lower Lozva and Upper Lozva dialects). The Mansi was claimed to their native language by 3.1 thousand people. Ethnogenesis As ethnos, the Mansi evolved as a result of the merger of the tribes of the Uralic Neolithic culture with Ugric and Indo-Iranian tribes, which migrated in the 2 - 1 millennia B. C. from the south to the steppes and forest-steppes, of Western Siberia and Northern Kazakhstan. The combination of the cultures of taiga hunters and fishermen and steppe nomadic pastoralists in the Mansi culture has been retained. It is most vividly manifested in the cult of the horse and the celestial horseman

Resources / PTS project go back PTS project Persistent Toxic Substances, Food Security and Indigenous Peoples of the Russian North is a joint project established by RAIPON (Association of Indigenous Peoples of the North, Siberia and Far-East of the Russian Federation), AMAP (Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme), and GEF (the Global Environmental Facility). Full PTS project report (PDF) Press Release (17 November 2004, in English) PDF WORD Main Conclusions and Recommendations (in English) PDF WORD The AMAP Assessments have documented how persistent toxic substances (PTS) have a tendency to be transported to, and accumulate in the Arctic region. They also describe how Arctic ecosystems are particularly vulnerable to exposure to PTS, and why certain Arctic indigenous communities in Greenland and Canada have some of the highest exposures to PTS of any populations on Earth. A number of factors, among which the cold Arctic climate, lipid-rich food chains, and lifestyle of indigenous peoples, in particular their reliance on traditional foods, all play an important role. Preliminary studies in the Russian Arctic upto 1998 showed that environmental levels of PTS can be significantly elevated, however the data were sparse and many areas of the Russian Arctic were not covered in these studies. At the same time, as a result of economic changes in Russia, consumption of traditional food by indigenous peoples in the Russian Arctic increased. For these reasons, the Arctic Indigenous Peoples Organizations (Permanent Participants of the Arctic Council), in collaboration with the AMAP Secretariat, initiated, with financial support of the Global Invironmental Facility (GEF), the project
