Siberian Tatars Information
Siberian Tatars (Sybyrtatar:Сыбыртар; Sybyrtar) refers to the indigenous Siberian population of the forests and steppes of Western Siberia stretching from somewhat east of the Ural Mountains to the Yenisey river. They speak Siberian Tatar, which has been sometimes considered a dialect of Tatar; detailed study demonstrates that Siberian Tatar idioms are quite remote from Volga Tatar by origin.
Siberian Tatars' ancestry was partly from Turkic, Ugric, Mongolic, Ket and Samoyedic [1] tribes, but their main ancestors were the Kypchaks. Their language also derived from Kypchak, but was influenced by Volga-Ural Tatar (which was also partly derived from Kypchak language).
