This volume open the edition of The collected works of Bronislaw Pitsudski , an eminent self-made scholar, whom history has proved to have been one of the most remarkable explorers of the languages and cultures of the small aboriginal peoples inhabiting the island of Sakhalin and the adjacent lower Amur region at the turn of the 20th century: the Sakhalin Ainu, Nivhgu (Gilyaks), Oroks, Olchas, and Nanais. Pitsudski, hardly leaving any importance aspect of their life untouched, presents a versatile and incomparable image of the spiritual and material world of communities long since extinct.
