From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

The Siberian Tatars are a sub-group of the Tatars, sometimes considered a separate ethnic group. They speak Siberian Tatar, which is a dialect of Tatar. Their ancestry was partly from Turkic, Ugric and Samoyedic tribes,[1] but their main ancestors were the Kypchaks. Their language also derived from early Kypchak, but was influenced by Volga-Ural Tatar (which was also partly derived from later versions of the Kypchak language), Kazakh, Bashkir, Uzbek and Russian languages.
