- Description : Ėven is a Northern Tungusic language spoken over a vast area of northeastern Siberia, from the Lena-Jana watershed in the west to the coast of the Oxotsk Sea, Chukotka, and Kamchatka in the east. Traditionally, Ėvens are nomadic hunters and reindeer pastoralists. Reindeer, both domesticated and wild, play an important role in their culture and ethnic self-identification. Reindeer herding, however, has become highly endangered throughout the Russian North, which has had extremely negative effects on the Ėvens' self-perception and social relations. Therefore the project will not only seek to document the language, but also the state of reindeer herding among the Ėvens in different regional settings. Due to the fragmentation of the Ėven communities, several dialects have emerged which are classified into two major dialectal groups: Western and Eastern. These dialects form a continuum with pronounced lack of mutual intelligibility between the extremes. So far, only two variants of one of the dozen or more dialects have been documented to a notable extent; these variants are also the least endangered ones. Other dialects are either on the verge of extinction or moribund. The project aims at documenting three highly endangered variants of Ėven that currently still have enough fluent speakers to make a comprehensive documentation feasible. These are the dialect spoken in the village of Sebjan-Küöl in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), which is the westernmost Ėven dialect still spoken; the dialect spoken in the village of Topolinoe in Yakutia, which also belongs to the Western dialect group, but is in an intermediate geographic location and the dialect spoken in the Bystraja district on Kamchatka representing the Eastern dialect group.

- Description : Various photos showing items used in reindeer herding and the life of reindeer herders: 1) a permanent winter camp (with blockhouses), 2) a typical nomadic camp (with tents - note the stovepipe) 3) a type of yurt called ilumu photographed in an old museum, 4) baking bread on the little iron stove in a reindeer herders' tent 5) teapots and kettles being kept hot on the stove for the reindeer herders' tea 6) sleds with stored goods in a reindeer herders' camp, 7) a storage platform in a reindeer herders' camp (arangas), 8) sleds with blocks of ice for (drinking) water (used as such not only in reindeer herders camp, but also in village), 9) driving the working reindeer to camp in the morning to be harnessed, 10) a model of a corral (in which reindeer are gathered to count and vaccinate them), 11) wooden clappers around the neck of reindeer to make them easy to find and to keep wolves at bay
