Goragir

The Goragir were an Evenki band of the Uchami, a left tributary of the Lower Tunguska, whose camps around Nidym and Tutonchany later lay in the Ilimpiyskiy district. They were nomadic reindeer herders and sable hunters of the far northern taiga, counted as Tungus tribute payers after Cossacks reached the Yenisei in the early seventeenth century.
