Environmental reflections of native peoples’ health in the sub-arctic russia based on micro-elements

Natural environment plays the principal role in the physical as well as socio-cultural adjustment of past and present human populations as evidenced by anthropological and material culture records. This is well-observed particularly among the aboriginal nations occupying intermittently pristine northern territories absent of major human migrations, ethnical gene-flows and associated historical inter-cultural exchanges. Specific natural factors linked to regional climate and geography, persisting for a certain time span, may significantly affect the ways of adaptations among the northern communities as attested by the (pre-)historic archaeological and ethnographical archives. Biological changes and cultural accommodation related to and triggered by (sub-)recent natural transformations are also reflected in the human organism/peoples’ health. This environmentally-imposed mechanism is considered to modify the morpho-functional biological characteristics of the northern (sub-)Arctic aboriginal/native people of Siberia and the extreme North-East Asia, responding to the presently acting natural shifts and the industrial ecology impacts. The area of the northern Siberia provides a unique opportunity for actualistic studies and multi-proxy assessment of these processes currently observed among the indigenous nations in respect to the geographical isolation of their natural settlement habitat and the specific environmental (climatic, relief and biotic) conditions.
