Small Peoples of the North Intro

This video is an introduction to the Small Peoples of the North. The Small Peoples are comprised of 26 groups of numerically small population groups in Far Eastern Russia. I shot most of the footage for this video in February of 2005.

bring christianity to these people will destroy there cultures.

[ZeDollyDots]

killing ancient cultures in the name of the lord is not how 21st christianity should be

[MsColdCanada]

Immediately when I saw them and their traditional ways I could tell they must be related to our Canadian First Nations people. It would be nice if they could all have a big get together. Like a family reunion. That is if they would like to.

@kardancer1 According to my ancestors, due to famine (severe cold), and tribal wars, millions of our neighbors disappeared into north pole and current Canada. Many native Russia/China/Gobi desert were sailing towards what now called America and South America not too long ago. Some of them were hard headed and don't want to join the ancient dominant kingdoms.

Billion of people know this for at least one thousand of years. As science progress, nobody can hide our history anymore.

get out your ass out of religion issue and embrass spirituality! Shamans they communicate with natural entities...they don't need and they have never wanted YOUR corrupted wealth...

@kardancer1 And Straight of Beiring might have not been the only connection to America. It is also possible that people from the Pacific Islands might have traveled to SOUTH AMERICA since they were excellent sailors. Simmilar boats are also built by the local people on the Coast of Peru (The Totora) and those are simmilar to those built by the people of the Pacific Islands.

that is interesting. But that doesn't answer my question at all. But thanks.

@kardancer1 It is more impressive to learn that a study was performed among the indigeneous people of Japan, the Ainus, and the Indigenous people of Peru, the Quechuas. A DNA comparison of 562 pairs or words of DNA sequence between the 2 groups, only 2 words were different. And that was the closest ever found between the Ainus and anyother group outside Japan. It is'nt that more impressive? I tend to believe that difference in 2 words was given to adaptation to high altitude on the mountains ;-)

[kardancer1]

@hxc4328 thats because science have found DNA showing, South Americans, Native Americans, and Canadian natives, to be originally from these groups, in north Russia /Siberia.

I'm confused? How can you bring Christianity to a people who are trying to preserve their religion and culture. I am a Christian, and even though they are not, I know God loves them just the same. So are promoting changing their culture? I thought you where emphasizing preserving their culture, the completely changed your idea at the end. Like I said I'm confused.

There is laws in Russia protecting non-native faiths from being introduced. Thought it is heavy critizes in the west for being anti-freedom. Which is funny we have right in my country to belivve in faiths that native not allow western missonries to come.

[cortezawwris]

Really then why do you westerners critize Russia for not allowing western missionaries to set up there faiths in Russia and preach to remote tribes. Also Russia law of native faiths being protected from outside influcnes.
