Abstract

This article is a brief summary of the history of the formation, assimilation and cultural boundary of the separate ethnolocal group of the Yessey Yakuts, historically separated both territorially and socio-culturally, with the basic ethnic group of Sakha-Yakuts that have not lost their identity, culture and language. The article gives an assessment of the current state of culture, development and problems of this ethnolocal group living in the north of the Krasnoyarsk Krai in the Evenk Municipal District in the settlement of Yessey. In this context, the northeastern border of the present-day Krasnoyarsk Krai and the northwestern regions of Yakutia, namely the place of formation of the sub-culture of the Yessey Yakuts – the area of Lake Yessey, can be classified as a borderline ethnocultural landscape. The ethnolocal components that structure the basic skeleton of the culture of the Yessey Yakuts represent a complex multicomponent formation that was formed even before it came to this territory
