Yamal
2015-2016

«True people» (Nenei nenecha) – self-name of Nenets, the indigenous people of the Yamal peninsula, and the name of the complex 2015–2016 ethnographic expedition. Project participants and the visitors of the resource will be the part of the reindeer herders's family during the whole year just to «dive» in the casual life of the modern XXI century nomads.

 

This update we'd like to dedicate to everyday's life of our nomadic kindergarten's group. Alexandra Terekhina is teaching kindergarten lessons, when no kaslanie (movement to the next encampment place) is planned. In warm days children are learning outside of the chum

This time children imitating adults tied top of the chum with a rope — same with the normal chum. In windy weather reindeer herders tieying top pf the chum with the rope, and one end of the rope tie to the fully loaded narta for better stability.
