Lalagir

The Lalagir were an Evenki, or Tungus, rod of the Olyokma and Nyukzha taiga south-west of Yakutsk, named in Russian surveys of the Evenki rods of the Olyokma basin. Like the rods of the neighbouring Amga country, they were nomadic elk hunters and reindeer herders brought under the fur tribute, or yasak, in the 1600s.
