The Siberian Bukharans (self-designation: ''Bukharlyk'', ''Sart'') are an ethnographic and sociocultural group in Siberia. Their ancestors came from the Khanate of Bukhara, and they constituted a significant part of the Siberian Tatars. Ethnically they consisted of Uzbeks, Tajiks, Uyghurs and in lesser degree Kazakhs and Karakalpaks. The main languages were Chagatai and Farsi. They were merchants from the Khanate of Bukhara and started to settle in the area in the 17th century〔 Compare: 〕 after the start of the Russian conquest of Siberia in the 1580s. Their name as an ethnic group — ''Bukharan'' appeared in documents until the early 1930s. Now that name refers to people from the city of Bukhara. Russians formerly used the term "Bukharan" to refer to any caravan merchant from Central Asia, since the Russians did not always have a clear understanding of the geography and peoples further south. == Population == The Siberian Bukharans maintained their own identity and were quite numerous. They numbered 23,700 in 1926. Their main bases of settlement were Tobolsk, Tara and Tyumen. In the Tobolsk Governorate there were several Bukharan towns in different uyezds. In Tarsk uyezd of the Tobolsk Governorate Bukharan Town (Russian: Бухарская волость), where the population was primarily Bukharans, existed until the early 20th century. In Tyumen there is a raion that is officially named ''Bukharan Settlement'' (Russian: Бухарская слобода). There are some settlements in the Omsk Oblast which were founded by Bukharans. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Siberian Bukharans」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
