DESCRIPTION:
The nomadic, Asiatic Dolgan people, numbering just over 7000, migrate in the tundra of the Taymyr Peninsula and Anabar District of Yakutia, almost a thousand kilometres beyond the Arctic Circle in Siberia's most northerly regions. They dress in home-sewn reindeer fur clothing, travel on home-made, wooden, reindeer-drawn sledges and live in log cabins insulated with reindeer fur and built on sledge runners that allow them to be pulled by reindeer during migrations.
