This article describes current matrimonial strategies andresidence patterns in two communities in the Sakha Republic. InTolon, a rural settlement in central Sakha, community exogamy ispredominant and patrilocality is detectable in postnuptial residencepatterns. In the sub-Arctic town of Khonuu no gendered residencepatterns are observed. Khonuu has an airport and serves as a regionalcapital. In Khonuu matrimonial decisions follow the immigrationof men and couples rather than traditional strategies connectedwith horse- and cattle-based subsistence. This article discusses thepossible biological, historical, and cultural reasons that explain theobservance or lack of observance of traditional marriage in the contemporarySakha Republic.
