Inhabitants of Kanin Peninsula (western Nenetsia)

[Ymyyakhtakh]

Kanin Peninsula is located in the northwestern corner of Nenetsia (Nenets Autonomous Okrug). I believe the western parts of Nenets AO along with Kalmykia are today the westernmost predominantly Mongoloid regions of the Old World. (Or I'm not even sure if some of the settlements on the Kanin Peninsula are predominantly Mongoloid, but parts of the tundra probably are.)

These are the largest settlements in the Kanin Peninsula:

Несь (Nes) (1368 inhabitants in 2010 census, 333 VKontakte users): https://vk.com/search?c%5Bcity%5D=11...tion%5D=people
Шо́йна (Shoyna) (300 inhabitants in 2010 census, 92 VKontakte users): https://vk.com/search?c%5Bcity%5D=11...tion%5D=people
Чижа (Chizha) (99 inhabitants in 2010 census, 12 VKontakte users): https://vk.com/search?c%5Bcity%5D=11...tion%5D=people
Кия (Kiya) (63 inhabitants in 2010 census, 16 VKontakte users): https://vk.com/search?c%5Bcity%5D=11...tion%5D=people

I used a script like this to make a list of all public photos uploaded by the VKontakte users returned by the search pages above:

va(){ curl -Gd v=5.37 -d access_token="$vkacc" https://api.vk.com/method/"$1";}

while read u;do
  va "photos.getAlbums?owner_id=$u&count=1000&need_system=1"|jq '.response.items[]?.id'|while read l;do
    o=0
    while :;do
      c=$(va "photos.get?owner_id=$u&album_id=$l&count=1000&offset=$o")
      p "$c"|jq -r '.response.items[]?|(.owner_id|tostring)+" "+(.id|tostring)+" "+(.photo_2560//.photo_1280//.photo_807//.photo_604)'
      p "$c"|jq -er '.response.items|length<1000'>/dev/null&&break
      let o+=1000
    done
  done
done

I then tried to pick photos that looked like they were taken in the Kanin Peninsula, even though some of the photos are probably actually taken somewhere else in the Nenets AO, or even outside the Nenets AO. Many of the users who had previously lived in one of the settlements in the Kanin Peninsula now live in Naryan Mar (the capital of Nenets AO), or vice versa. Most of the people in the photos below are Nenetses, but some are also ethnic Russians and Komis.
