Yakuts, self-designation: Sakha, are a Turkic people associated with the Sakha (Yakutia) Republic.
The Yakut or Sakha language belongs to the Northern branch of the Turkic family of languages. There are about 456,000 speakers (Russian census, 2002) mainly in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) in the Russian Federation, with some extending to the Amur, Magadan, Sakhalin regions, and the Taimyr and Evenki Autonomous Districts. Yakuts makes up about 45,5% of population in Yakutia; their share lowered due to policies during the Soviet rule. Yakut language is considered to be somewhat less endangered than most other regional languages of Russian Federation however.
Most scholars believe the Yakuts originally migrated from the region of Lake Baikal to the basins of the Middle Lena, the Aldan and Vilyuy rivers, where they mixed with other northern indigenous peoples of Russia such as the Evens and Evenks.
