Description
Summary:For many decades researchers have been interested in the origins of the Sakha culture because of its economic and linguistic distinctive features. The Yakutia history has been examined through historical data and studies conducted by various scientific schools. With the colonization of Yakutia in the 17th century, comes a cultural evolution due in particular to the rise of the influence of Russian culture and Orthodoxy. The historical study of the colonized Yakute society within the Russian State, via the data unedited, enables us to understand the factors of its evolution over the centuries along with its societal mutations. Our study is also based on ethnoarcheological data resulting from the work the French archeological mission in Eastern Siberia and Mongolia. Through ethnoarcheology, I study the population and the history of these people. Thanks to permafrost, the excavated graves are exceptionally well preserved, which gives us the opportunity to conduct in-depth studies on funerary and cultural practices through the rich movable property found with these graves. In our research, we use this transversal approach of the Sakha culture in order to better understand its evolution, discontinuities as well as its ethnic and cultural transformations. The main objective of this research is to highlight the cultural transformation of the Sakha society from the 17th century to the 20th century while observing the previous centuries. Depuis des décennies, l’origine du peuple Sakha interroge les chercheurs en raison de ses particularités économiques et linguistiques. L'histoire de la Iakoutie est abordée via les données historiques et les études menées par diverses écoles scientifiques. On assiste, dès la colonisation de la Iakoutie au XVIIème siècle, à une évolution culturelle, notamment sous l'influence de la culture russe et de l’orthodoxie. L'étude historique de la société iakoute au sein de l'État russe, via les données en partie inédites, nous permet d’envisager les facteurs de son évolution au cours des ...
