L'ensemble national Ergyron, créé il y a plus de trente ans vient de la république de Russie la plus au nord-est, près du détroit de Bering.

Location of the Chukchi Peninsula in Far East Siberia.

The Chukchi Peninsula, Chukotski Peninsula or Chukotsk Peninsula (Russian: Чукотский полуостров), at about 66° N 172° W, is the northeastern extremity of Asia. Its eastern end is at Cape Dezhnev near the village of Uelen. It is bordered by the Chukchi Sea to the north, the Bering Sea to the south, and the Bering Strait to the east. The peninsula is part of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug of Russia.

The peninsula was traditionally the home of the native Chukchi people, some Eskimo peoples (Siberian Yupiks and Sireniki Eskimos), Koryaks, Chuvans, Evens/Lamuts, Yukagirs, and some Russian settlers.

The peninsula lies along the Northern Sea Route (the Northeast passage).

Industries on the peninsula are mining (tin, lead, zinc, gold, and coal), hunting and trapping, reindeer raising, and fishing.

indigenous people of russia, very nice.

[eyesearth]

Yes, very nice :))

[letykai]

WOW! Spasibo!Vellinqaqun! Qujanaq!

The same spencer Wells who believed humans didn't descend from neanderthals when a recent study indicated genetic interchange between neanderthals and the ancestors of some modern human groups. Natives still aren't "chukchi", jabroni.

[NopeJPeg]

@IslenoGutierrez

Genetic odyssey is for the common layman. You'd be hardpressed to find any strict scientific article claiming direct ancestry rather than common ancestry. Besides, American Indians had a 20,0000 Beringian layover isolated from eurasians, 7,000 years before the 13,000 year old chukchi. lol

[NopeJPeg]

@IslenoGutierrez

They show similar genetic markers not ancestry. The chukchi have a "mongoloid" phenotype that is quite recent to older American indian phenotypes. Funny that you quote Wells' conclusion with proven certainty yet question the probability of the chukchi arising much later as insignificant. The chukchi lack haplogroup x which is another founding Indian haplogroup, Also lol at you implying the ancestral population developing further into modern day chukchi.

[IslenoGutierrez]

@NopeJPeg "The latter originated the Na-Dene, Eskimo, and probably the Siberian Chukchi." that statement doesn't even show certainty to the idea that the Chukchi originated from an ancestral population that originated the Na-Dene and the Eskimo. It said probably, which means they are not certain. Also, since the Chukchi were from the other side of the "ice-free corridor", it makes sense that they were the peoples isolated south of the ice sheets from the collapsed corridor.

[IslenoGutierrez]

@NopeJPeg Yes they did "birth" American Indians. How is it that only the Chukchi are the exact group in Eastern Siberia that shows ancestry to Native Americans? It's because a group of them crossed the land bridge. Whether they called themselves Chukchi or not 13,000 years ago, they are still the same people as the people that crossed the land bridge. The Native Americans evolved from them to their present phenotype.

[NopeJPeg]

@IslenoGutierrez

ancestral population. They didn't "birth" American Indians.

[NopeJPeg]

@IslenoGutierrez

Correction: genetics =/= ethnic identity.

"The collapse of this ice-free corridor during a few thousand years ≈14,000–20,000 years ago isolated the people south of the ice-sheets, who gave rise to the Amerind, from those still in Beringia; the latter originated the Na-Dene, Eskimo, and probably the Siberian Chukchi." - A single and early migration for the peopling of the Americas supported by mitochondrial DNA sequence data.

The Chukchi arose from a common...

[NopeJPeg]

@IslenoGutierrez

Considering that American Indians have different mutations in their genetic markers, that even the ancestral population had developed mutations in their genetic markers, that differ from eurasians, that would suggest that they are not direct descendants. Didn't think genetic = ethnic identity.

[IslenoGutierrez]

@NopeJPeg The Chukchi were still the Chukchi 13,000 years ago. These people have the same genetic markers as their ancestors. They are the same people. The Native Americans have been identified as having descended from these people. Spencer Wells did not believe Humans descended from Neanderthals and we didn't There may be some remains of Neanderthal is certain populations, but by far, most of us are not. That's where he was going with that. The proof has already been identified.

@IslenoGutierrez

I suppose the San migrated out of Africa and not a common ancestral population linking modern-day populations made the trip, right? lol Quote other sources instead of relying on one because researchers definitely don't show personal bias in terminology, right? Who would've thought that genetic sequences have ethnic categories rather than genetic categories. Human language definitely remained static 13,000 years ago along with "ethnic" identity. lol
