vertical leadership, so with a fighting continuing to re john and ukraine's internal problems continuing to grow, it looks like he is going to be in for a tough time in the near future. meanwhile, a former ukrainian presidential adviser is among those confirming that key evan moscow reached an agreement back in march of 2022. adding that he doesn't understand why calf decided to drop the deal. boeing to pressure from the u. k. that's as the russian foreign minister said, that neither chav or the west are interested in seeking an end to the conflict of interest. people access to stop the political process and ukraine. it takes 2 to tango, but i've done spartans in the west. don't want to time go with us. they draw the breakdown since that's and that's it done. so you can only do solo and agreement was reached at the end of march and the stumble after several rounds of negotiations. this was recently confirmed as facts by someone that participated david out of time in there was a member of the crating delegation in the stumble. and the reason seems to be reset
12:31 pm
. yes, we were ready. almost everything was agreed upon. but that virus johnson arrived and said, no, let's continue fighting. since then we have not received any signal from kids. all that must is that they are ready to move forward to a political process all for now, but be sure to check out our t. com for the latest breaking news and updates. thanks for joining in. we'll see you back at the top of the hour, the, [000:00:00;00] the is it possible to get lost in time? well, come to come chuck a and see for yourself. here several unique ethnic groups are remaining in their
12:32 pm
own bubble of sorts. surrounded by these beautiful landscapes, we come to see how the natives of rushes, far, far east to live and preserve the ancient traditions and culture. and if we've come this far, we know that it's going to be worth the journey here here, here, here. so one thing that i've come to learn here in contract to is it really is a true melting pot. many different cultures coming together,
12:33 pm
but the edelman were believe to be the 1st people to come to contract that you yourself, are you? tillman. and where do you come from? usually it's not good up the street. we don't know from where the it to him and came to come shatka. there are several theories, but none have been proven. one hypothesis says it's woman sales here from hawaii. another claims we tracked from mongolia. some say we originate in america. however, the it's women call themselves the people living here long. yeah, that's what it tillman literally means. a local field archeologist proved that the it's woman has been living here for over 8000 years. they were here before the cory x, the cheek, she, the evens and the alleys. to do this, before ancestors had spread across these parts, before their arrival, they worked for the land, they fish ton to the sea, mammals gather, did woodwork and grass for etc. and we,
12:34 pm
their descendants continue those traditions. so the german scientist george stellar. he was also a traveller. he has a theory that and you've already touched on this a little bit. the edelman and the north american natives are the same. people that you've been to canada, you've been to north america in the states. what's your thoughts? what's in tough. we're often told that we look like the theme get the cho key, etc. and look, you know, pretty at the but i see differences and they see them to our language as are different. and so our, our cultures dance, for example, our traditional activities are not the same either. sure. there's a similarity when you visit one of their villages. you look like you could easily blend in, but the clothes are different, traditions and culture as well to time. so i think we're different from them in that we're indigenous to construct. they have their own tribes and
12:35 pm
a sniff. cities with their own rich cultures and traditions. you mentioned earlier that, uh, you know, men are believe to come here to a contract to 8000 years ago in that 8000 years. are there still traditions from them that you still have in your daily life, in your daily routine? the yes we do have these traditions. we still celebrate the implemented ritual festival of all light. like our ancestors we chase evil spirits away. all our women get together and make all faces and scream their heads off until evil spirits the car to leave our homes and our families. we still dance till we draw because we still love to have fun seeing her deal us and dance like our ancestors. that boredom was a major send for them, having fun, enjoying life, feeling happy is one of the most important pursuits for the it's woman to be a great to me and you and we still respect this tradition of ours due to mobile
12:36 pm
goes we. so we've grasp baskets using c, we'd towards the end of august, we go to the pacific shore to gather, see we will use it to cover our typical it's omen dwellings. take houses and buy la guns with them while ago. but none, then there's fish. of course, where the fish is our livelihood. we stole fish, dry fish ro we'd dry. you cooler, a fish meat that comes from salt guys, simon, chums and, and co host simons. we make a lot of preserves for ourselves and for our dogs. we pick berries for us. if you don't go foraging, then it's like you haven't lived that year. as soon as berries come out, you feel this urge within you. you want to go and pick them. and i'm not talking about picking raspberries and strawberries in the garden. i'm talking about cranberries blue, honeysuckle, and crowd berries. in a sense we modern it's women still follow the traditional life style of our
12:37 pm
forefathers. we talked to the earth spirits, negotiate with them, and thank them during specific parts of the year. exactly when our ancestors did the same. one of the traditions that you have in the abilities that you have, i would say, is being able to cook using wooden pots without an open fire. for me, that distrust seems impossible. how do you do that? there's our ancestors didn't use iron. this is a steel knife, but in the past tools would be made of obsidian or stone. these days we cook like everyone else and it's the women who do it. in the ancient times, however, men were in charge of the cooking. they would heat stones in a fire and put them inside, wouldn't pots with water and pieces of fish by replacing cool stones with hot ones from the fire. they would simmer the fish to it's really delicious. our traditional, ancient way of cooking is much better and preserving all the whole,
12:38 pm
some properties of fish with of what they didn't use salt. i'd suggest to give it a try. it's a physically challenging process. so how to talk to them when you get hot standing next to a fire, they would strip to the waist and sometimes even remove their pens. splits on the cooking, would it be done inside the pit house? they had special wood and tools to help them pull the stones from the fire, dropped them inside the pots, and put them back. i want to ask about the raven. i know that it's very important to the gentleman culture, but it's also important in ireland, the irish and goddess of war. what it on it is also surrounded by raven, she appears as a raven, the scandinavian god. quoting also is surrounded by ravens. why do you think that this icon of the raven is so important to the people in and across many different indigenous cultures or not?
12:39 pm
so you could have the corey x and that you could. you also believe that could king a cool the rave and created come child good and gave birth to the cory act. and that you 2 people in the tillman believe that the court, the raven, together with his wife eat home, created the land of come chattanooga. we see this differently from the cory x and the choke sheet for whom this land was a rock lifted from the depths of the ocean. for us, this land as a living thing was once upon a time, the quotes and a home that were flying over these parts. and all they could see was an expanse of water. they landed, and the raven was able to stand. but his wife sang to her chest and there she gave birth to their son seems to come in, which means or then we can put, including the raven made him become land, which means we walk upon the land of quotes and the homes 1st son seems getting good, when we call to the spirit of the earth, it seems cut in we talk to what we say seems good in. thank you. please help us
12:40 pm
later they hadn't our children end. at some point, the tillman came into existence. is it a coincidence? such many consider the raven to be there for father, a wise bird, or some kind of an important character in our story. i don't know. what i know is that the raven holds a lot of symbolism for russians as well. it's symbolizes wisdom, a sort of intellectual force that sees every thing for someone with it's a hard question to answer, but i like the fact that we share some characters, be that metaphorical representations are actual spirits. we believe in the unify us . it means humanity used to be one. it just means tribes split apart at some point and went their separate ways. the raven, however, remains that link which still binds us together. just the news. i'm sure that at some level our cultures have something in common in your push, the way we see ourselves and perceive our connection to nature. road is my
12:41 pm
understanding and we've talked about this a little bit already in this conversation. the dance is very important to the gentleman culture. but in the past dance was a asking for a good hunt or maybe asking for good health. does dance today have the same type of meaning for you or is it more just a tradition? nip? know our dances are also rituals. you enter a sort of trends during the it's a men festival of how i lie. we hold the russian traditional dance championship for the indigenous people of come shatka, where we dance for 17 hours, non stop there. we share energy, communicate with our tribes, the irs and the spirits,
12:42 pm
the, the, the, it's an unforgettable experience. each indigenous dance is a story, a way to get in touch with higher powers and the energy that surrounds us. air, water, earth, fire, and the spirits of animals which we sometimes also invoke in our dense. many years ago the gentleman used to dance, so they literally dropped from exhaustion over generations and generations of different ethnic groups. we've income truck a has mixed. is it safe to say that the cultures and traditions of the different groups have mixed to become a unique contract a culture can years we're going to use it? certainly the traditions and cultures are mixed. and traditionally,
12:43 pm
korea commend and women never dens close to each other. they dance their separate dances, each in their own bible. the atonement are very different. the always i see a man issue to get the issue because she's a woman means and we go the the, the cory to the doctor, this dance practice now the to condense together and have fun. there's a cross pollination of cultures. on the one hand,
12:44 pm
it's beautiful on the other. it's becoming more difficult to make. the distinction is and figure out what austin took it to him and culture is a and that's but there are no more peer at. tillman, tillman. families are all mixed with other ethnic groups. the 1st of all, i want to thank you for bringing us in here to have this look into your life, into your culture. it's fascinating. thank you. i guess i want to ask 1st uh, what does it mean to be, claudia? where do the credit people come from? and what does it mean to you? not only do it, there's a distinction. you to go there are coastal connex, the new one,
12:45 pm
and 200 correct. the just to them who heard reindeer fedex. they're known as rich folks because they have huge herds and reindeer are highly prized by c. r grandmas who raised and taught us and the village would always say that the correct main treasure were a large family, a really large one under heard of dear kid. that's why people took good care of their families. of no reindeer reindeer, maybe even took priority as they were essential to life by side all our close. every thing we have everything our ancestors had. it all revolved around reindeer. when they made clothes or a reindeer meat, they used to say that the animals lived on with them. we where its skin live, the life goes on. you can see that we're surrounded by reindeer hines, and i can see that they're working specifically on making these beautiful clothes that you're known for. but it seems to me that it would be incredibly difficult to
12:46 pm
make all of these clothes and by hand. do you have specific tools that you use to to make your clothes that was instead? yes, we do. uh well for the for civilization came to us so to speak. there were these old tools are, these are the tips for the connection? yes, they were created naturally. i think a lot, they're very old. that's a kind of we do this rock is used to carry leather. what at the sound with this is the best traditional tool to think its own is the window of his corner. so here's a more modern version from the time when we began using iron victor with a course on boston which is sharper than stone. was that when my grandma had me tana hyde was this iron tool and she didn't gives me a high quality piece because she knew i would rip it from you. so she gave me anything
12:47 pm
that wasn't valuable to renewals can result in show that we just do what we use to use this board for tanning. will you place it like this style and put the deer skin on top of it? of the image and i, i'm not going to press hard now because this piece has already been attend school or otherwise i would be going like this. i thought to put your arms get really tired of these, but that's how you build muscles and become very strong healey. sec, the if so we remove the top layer. we grease the hide with deer mux several times 3 or 4. so it becomes soft when it's soft like this, we can further process it using our hands. okay. how much time does it take for you to make a specific piece of closing load, say, a coffee uncle for a for code,
12:48 pm
for example. regarding how long it takes isn't much depends on what the craft artist plan is, how detailed and beautiful she wants this piece of clothing to be. there is also burial clothing to it is our custom to have that ready when people are still alive today, it would be very unusual. but our people have this tradition. and then, you know, we made our own burial clothes that would take 3 or 4 similar pieces to make a complete set for women. my size, touch and feel how soft it is. are very cool. now i understand that you decorate so beautifully by your closing with bands and symbols. uh, are they just decorative or do they have meaning? just guess what? i'm getting of them because all i'll show you a piece so you can compare these ornaments are called sun. today we call them gel google and cut ax, meaning moons. you correct?
12:49 pm
still use the lunar calendar for seasons based on the lunar phases. the correct people know how to get their bearings using the moon and stars will not. our ancestors were really good at finding their way like this before i come back a visa or nimble up with, you know, beads were brought here and exchange for local products. we didn't have beats before that we have some local crafts. women took a liking to them once new because they added beauty to the traditional needlework patterns and brought out there also intensity. we knew i'm talking about the traditional moves. our ancestors used to embroider on their quotes without beads. they made beads of their own from natural materials, like fish bones, shells and deer hair. just one book here, i'll show you it did, of course, since this is an authentic codec, sun pattern or a movie, as we call it. so can you tell me a little bit more about what the symbols and bands means? specifically, i am in the cracks,
12:50 pm
display their live file in these decorations. you want to know some of the most important thing for them was the deer versus the water line. and so most often to pick dear antlers or mountains, volcanoes or tree branches as the coastal corrects. also called lawns lived along the coast. so they had these wave patterns as for the colors they used, there weren't as many color options as today. they mostly used red, black and white, and they're ornaments. elizabeth, what the lowest becomes that my grandma used to say when we decorated my for jacket on the good news that you need to take inspiration from the ground. black or brown represents 1st. yeah. green is for grass. we didn't have green or light blue, for example, one of the choice of colors was limited to the basic or black, red and white. white is the color of sanctity purity. red is the color of defense,
12:51 pm
it gives protection. that's it. a back in those days are across women also made carpet switch, told their family stories, see if there was no writing system. so ornaments told stories you could tell from those pictures the families occupational to even tragic incidents were depicted from when someone died or was killed away from home. family history was passed down in or in the middle of the there's a legend about a no man who room to the earth with his reindeer. when the animal google's and weary, it turned to his master and said to me, to drink my blood. and we will become one, my soul will come back to earth and to give birth to a new ranks of reindeer people. we are now headed across the tundra of contract to meet the descendants of those very people, the evans, the so you're out here with no
12:52 pm
signs in the middle of nowhere, no communication. how do you know where to go this month? we have a special route so we can't go beyond certain limits because that's outside, i'll post you. so we pay for the right to keep our animals in certain areas and for hunting land. the climate fact as to it's very hard to think if there's a lot of snow the day accounts get to the most. so we need to move to another place with less snow up to 50 centimeters. and how many ranger do you have in your heard here? and so, is it difficult to control them with these 2000, including the cough? so the number of fluctuates as some they have become sick or full prey to other animals, including 2 legged ones, most people have rated just to fully explore. some stuff is low up on the it's not easy to control the reindeer. it depends on the pulse. you'll end or if you stay in the same place all the time, you will destroy all the mos. it takes up to 25 years for new most to grow. you
12:53 pm
need at least 15 years for some of to appear. so we can't stay in the same spot. we need to keep the rain the a moving. i'll be looking for areas where there isn't a lot of snow or ice. when you're out here in the nature, when you're with the ranger, what do you feel? what isn't it for you to fulfill the journey? besides, i feel free out here because it's not folded by walls of anything else. that civilization doesn't get into way because there's no radio, so it can't listen to the news that goes. so find things out later, but just to just put it in task for anything else. great, i'm sorry about the dog footing as a very special place in the life of the indigenous people in come chunk of what seems like entertainment for some was once a crucial method of survival in extreme whether this american family is now reviving. these ancient traditions
12:54 pm
the now that is impressive and very all right. so let's get right to and i've heard the rumors that your children before, they can't even walk are already in a sled. what is flooding to with these dogs? is it a sports, is it's a way of life, is it an ancient tradition? talk to me about that? no, go through what they say the most. my wife participates in dunc side races, even when she's pregnant, most competing by police. just like, let's go with our kids are in the sled with her or did so. i still do, i'm sending for us is on life or life in the forest with dogs close to nature. because even if it's how we pass cultural tradition and emotion this down to on children, that very perceptive read that will cause they grow up surrounded by this strong
12:55 pm
healthy and learning from us spinning. yeah, think we think that they do, doug setting on their own and go like, and i can tell your whole family is involved. so what exactly is a musher and what you have to have in your skill set to become one that you're the marshal call you is dedicated to his dogs and he lives with them. is the most that drives the dog? said team. i thought i would call in the boss believe the total. everything depends on the marcia the entire life of his team. okay. inside. now do you become a marcia? people usually start with one dog and then the teams. dont scrubbing with the 2nd side. now you do anything special to train your dogs to run or is this justin their jeans? yes, the women prepping for a race isn't like any athletes. and we dropped a plan and tried to stick to it. but i believe these particular dogs have it in that blood, so we don't need to make extra efforts to brent the dogs. just letting you just put it into the harness. it will get up to this lad,
12:56 pm
an office goes. i noticed an interesting phenomenon when they were getting ready to be hooked up the entire group of them all started housing at once. what does this mean? is this a signal? is this a rally cry that they're getting ready to go running? or they always have very interesting question issue and you know, i don't remember anyone giving you a comprehensive answer to it. no, i think by housing, they express the unit. see an eking this to run is a lot. yeah. this date will show example once it will starts housing in the whole pan copies install it down and see. but the same is happening here with the dogs. is the manifestation of teams. where is how this might seem like the most basic of questions, but how many dogs are there to a slab? is there a limit, or is there a set number that have to be there must be used between 6 and 16 dogs for one said, depending on what's required from a good take killer run. well, if it's a long distance,
12:57 pm
isn't 1500 to 2000 to columbus is what we would use as many dogs as we can up to 16 by so i give it to show it to run 68 or 10 dogs have plenty me now, you know that different dogs have different roles on the sled, which implies the fact that they might have different psychological traits as well . how do you choose which specific dogs go where on a slide to monitor? that's what we see right from the start. and when the dogs are still pump these right here that kept in a kennel, and as they grow older, we start walking. go. we take the mother on the lease and go to the forest for a walk using them we can wash the pumps and see the account. it says right away, i need some opposite rank to have a not afraid to run ahead. we. we mark them as potentially dogs who will stay of the team. that's what i mean, other bob so less active and only stay behind the brain of a one to see if they will go in the middle of the dog team player and some always stay close to, you know, going round your legs,
12:58 pm
but they will run away while you have to, they are afraid to fall out of the rest of the team the best to assist these dogs, you'll be harnessed in the rear of the team running directly in front of the sledge . the wheel dogs exist that sound dog rows of determines let an initial stage before the day. so when you still in training, the dogs of the abilities will manifest themselves best. uh, is there ever a case where there's a dog that just isn't suited for run thing and what happens to that does that happens was sometimes a dog is afraid to run in the hall and this with the team. it starts to slow down or going to even lie down. you can't use dogs like this. again, they're usually very good companion so long in the forest, because they never run away. we have many such dogs here, and they remain part of the family and stay here with the rest of the team.
12:59 pm
the we've traveled the breadth of the contract to peninsula taking it to mesmerizing landscapes and people the they live in some of the harshest conditions known to man for wind and snow, the even making their homes i'm, it's fire breathing volcanoes. here there's total harmony between nature and people preserving the unique culture and identity,
1:00 pm
the, the, the after 7 days of choosing the media. does it get to managed to extend this in very usa and ceasefire? palestinian authorities say at least 109 people have been killed, and dozens more injured and made renewed idea of strikes on gaza. also had chosen to hold on to women. amongst will now take the mother. something's israel says her mazda will face a major strike for taking it. citizens paused as bombs continue to rain down on god, the civilians face a mounting catastrophe. i was asleep when i heard the sound of folding stones.
