Traditions and rituals of peoples of the North are closely related to their way of life and climate conditions. They, like their ancestors, travel through the vast expanses of tundra together with reindeer herds. They are busy with fishing, fur hunting. Each ethnic group has its own customs. But there are also common features in their rituals, due to the similar traditional lifestyle. Nomadic peoples treat death philosophically. How much is allotted to a person, so much he or she will live. This is not surprising. After all, the strongest survives in the extreme conditions of the north. The tundra dwellers believe that the soul is immortal, and passes into the afterlife, where it continues living.
