Abstract

Ethnic contacts between the peoples of China and Siberia had an impact on the formation of cultural characteristics of these regions since ancient times. Involvement of anthropological and linguistic data allows us to determine the role of Mongolian, Chinese, Turkic, Tungusic, and other peoples in the formation of the ethnic composition of the population, the penetration of various racial components, the nature of mixing, grinding and interaction in different historical periods.
