Zabolotnie (Yaskolbinsk) Tatars (Siberian Tatar:сас татарлар,romanized: sas tatarlar) are a subgroup of the Tobol-Irtysh group ofSiberian Tatars. They live in the North-West parts of theTobolsky District,Tyumen Oblast, mainly in the Achir and Laytamak rural settlements.
Zabolotnie Tatars traditionally practiced hunting and fishing.
Their traditional areas of settlement are separated fromTobolsk, the Russian and Siberian Tatar settlements byIrtysh River, by impassableswamps which is the reason for their name in the Russian language (literally,Tatars who live behind the swamps). This separation also helped them to preserve some elements of their traditional culture, which has been lost by other Siberian groups.[2]
They are divided into three local sub-groups:
Eight Y-DNA haplotypes were detected among Zabolotnie Tatars. A research found that 62 % of Zabolotnie Tatar males belong to N1b-P43, following by N1c-LLYY22 10 % and N-M231 10 %. Other, less widespread haplogroups are O3-M122 4 %, R1b1-M73 4 %, J2b-M12 2 %, R1a-M198 1 %, L2-M317 1%. Other haplogroups accounted for additional 6 %.
The closest populations to Zabolotnie Tatars areKhanty,Mansi and forestNenets people, and just a little bit more distant, but also very close, are theKhakas,Shor andAltai people. Because of that geneticists are making conclusion about genetic contribution of Ugric and Samoyedic peoples to the gene pool of Zabolotnie Tatars. It is the high percentage of the haplogroup N1c2b that connects Zabolotnie Tatars to the peoples of the Arctic and South Siberia. It is probably the common heritage of ancient populations of North Eurasia.[4]
Zabolotnie Tatars' speach differs from other forms of Siberian Tatar as it also uses letterf, which lacks in other Siberian Tatar dialects.
