In the framework of population censuses, the Yurts were united with the Astrakhan , Kazan and other Tatars , being a subethnos of the Tatar people. Historically, this is the Tatar nomadic nomadic tribes. It can be assumed that the original Yurt-Nogai language was closer to the Nogai and Alabugat-Nogai languages, than to the literary Tatar or any of its dialects [2] .
History
In the past, nomadic groups of Turks who inhabited the interfluve of the Volga and Don rivers during the time of the Astrakhan Khanate . The nomad camps of the Yurt, however, were ordered because they occurred within one yurt, that is, a certain geographical area assigned to one genus. For a number of linguistic features and other customs, the less numerous Yurt Tatars were opposed to the larger settled Tatar groups by the so-called Astrakhan Tatars . After the weakening of the Horde power, a significant part of the Yurt soldiers became part of the Don Cossack formations [3] , some of them mixed with the Nogai and the sedentary Tatars.
