Yupik Spells and the Yupik Language in the Contemporary Religious Ritual Context
It is generally believed that if the languages of indigenous peoples of Siberia are preserved anywhere, it would be within the spheres of traditional environmental management: reindeer husbandry, hunting, fishing, etc. However, among Yupik communities in coastal Chukotka, another domain where the Yupik language remains in use is the religious (ritual) sphere—in particular, in various practices for communicating with the spirits of ancestors. This…

In 2020, I started a project that involved scanning and digitizing the Yupik genealogical charts compiled in Novoe Chaplino (Providensky District, coastal Chukotka) by the ethnographer Mikhail Chlenov in the 1970s and 1980s. He had assembled these materials on the basis of information from local archives and registry offices along with information obtained from communication with the elderly Yupik of Novoe Chaplino, many of whom had been born at …
Incantations et langue yupik dans le contexte des rituels religieux contemporains
On estime que la sphère où la langue des peuples autochtones de Sibérie est préservée est celle de l’exploitation traditionnelle des ressources naturelles : élevage de rennes, chasse marine, pêche, et chasse en forêt. Chez les Yupik de la côte de Tchoukotka, la sphère religieuse (rituelle) – on entend ici diverses pratiques visant à communiquer avec les esprits des ancêtres – constitue un autre domaine où la langue autochtone demeure utilisée. Ce…
Spiritual Authority and Religious Introspection among Muslim Migrants in Western Siberia
This article concerns the Islamic community in contemporary Russia and the dynamic identities of Muslim migrants there. The focus of this study is the religious and wider social practices of those Muslim migrants who are considered leaders of local micro-communities, enjoy respect within their religious community, and have steadfast religious authority within their circles. These practices are considered in their local religious and migrant conte…
The commemoration of the dead in contemporary Asiatic Yupik ritual space
Contemporary Asiatic Yupik living in Chukotka (Russia) practise various types of ritual feeding of the spirits. People feed the spirits for specific purposes and at different places. The core ritual of feeding the deceased is an autumn commemoration of the dead (aghqesaghtuq), which is described in this article with examples from Novoe Chaplino and Sireniki. This seemingly simple ceremony is full of nuances, and each family practises it in its ow…
