Today the guests can get aquainted with history, culture, traditions and customs of such indigenous people as: Itelmens – the first original natives of Kamchatka whose traditional activity used to be fishing. Itelmens obtain ancient knowledge about useful properties of plants and animal products. Koryaks – the name of the people originates the national word “kor” which means “a deer”. From ancient times the Koryaks are divided into reindeer breeders “chavchuveny” and sea fishermen “nymylany”. Chukchi – hunters and reindeer breeders of the north. They are close to Koryaks in their origin but they live mostly in Chukotka and north of Kamchatka. Evens – reindeer breeders who came to Kamchatka about 150 years ago from Siberia and settled down in the central Kamchatka.

    CHAPTER 6 OBSIDIAN PROVENANCE STUDIES ON KAMCHATKA PENINSULA (FAR EASTERN RUSSIA): 2003–9 RESULTS Andrei V. Grebennikov, Vladimir K. Popov, Michael D. Glascock, Robert J. Speakman, Yaroslav V. Kuzmin, and Andrei V. Ptashinsky Abstract: The results of obsidian provenance research on the Kamchatka Peninsula based on extensive study of the chemical composition of volcanic glasses from both ‘geological’ sources and archaeological sites are presented. At least 16 geochemical groups reflecting different sources of obsidian have been identified for Kamchatka using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis. Seven sources of archaeological obsidian have been linked to specific geologic outcrops, with the distances between sites and obsidian sources up to 550km. At least seven geochemical groups based only on artefact analysis are also described. The use of multiple obsidian sources was a common pattern during the Palaeolithic, Neolithic, and Palaeometal periods of Kamchatkan prehistory.

VALLEY 1Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA 2Institute of Volcanic Geology and Geochemistry, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia 3Geologisk Institut, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark (Received March 20, 2003; accepted in revised form July 16, 2003) Abstract—We present the results of a regional study of oxygen and Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes of Pleistocene to Recent arc volcanism in the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Kuriles, with emphasis on the largest caldera- forming centers. The ␦18O values of phenocrysts, in combination with numerical crystallization modeling (MELTS) and experimental fractionation factors, are used to derive best estimates of primary values for ␦18O(magma). Magmatic ␦18O values span 3.5‰ and are correlated with whole-rock Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes and major elements. Our data show that Kamchatka is a region of isotopic diversity with high-␦18O basaltic magmas (sampling mantle to lower crustal high-␦18O sources), and low-␦18O silicic volcanism (sampling low-␦18O upper crust). Among one hundred Holocene and Late Pleistocene eruptive units from 23 volcanic centers, one half represents low-␦18O magmas (ϩ4 to 5‰). Most low-␦ 18O magmas are voluminous silicic ignimbrites related to large Ͼ10 km3 caldera-forming eruptions and subsequent intracaldera lavas and domes: Holocene multi-caldera Ksudach volcano, Karymsky and Kurile Lake-Iliinsky calderas, and Late Pleistocene Maly Semyachik, Akademy Nauk, and Uzon calderas.

Asian Sockeye Salmon (freshwater period of life, biological structure, population dynamics). – Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky : Publishing House “Kamchatpress”, 2011: 292 p. ISBN 978-5-9610-0159-4 Abstract Key words: sockeye, age, length, weight, growth, scale structure, freshwater period, food competitors, infestation, food supply, population dynamics, fishing operations. In Asia, the sockeye is the most abundant on the Kamchatka Peninsula in some years where ap- proximately 90-95 % of all the Asian sockeye is harvested in the watersheds of the Kamchatka and Ozernaya rivers alone. This study is a summary of long-term observations on the Asian sockeye, and is based on the results of the author's 20 years of research. He examines the biological charac- teristics of 38 local sockeye populations (from Iturup Is. to Eastern Chukotka). Long-term data was used to analyze the interannual variability in the growth of juvenile sockeye of the Kamchatka and Ozernaya rivers. Questions concerning the structural analysis of the scales in juveniles and spawn- ers of the sockeye are discussed in detail for the purpose of standardizing the age-determination procedure. Data on the feeding behaviour of juvenile sockeye in the watersheds of the Kamchatka and Ozernaya rivers are presented, and questions concerning the food competition of fish in the Kamchatka River watershed are discussed.
