The Chukchi people are an indigenous group primarily residing in the northeastern part of Siberia, Russia. They traditionally inhabit the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug and are known for their nomadic lifestyle, relying on reindeer herding, fishing, and hunting for sustenance. Their culture is rich in oral traditions, music, and art, reflecting their deep connection to the Arctic environment. Chukchi society is divided into two main groups: the Reindeer Chukchi, who herd reindeer, and the Sea Chukchi, who depend on marine resources. The Chukchi language belongs to the Chukchi-Koryak language family, and their unique customs and practices have been shaped by the harsh Arctic climate.
