Altay Language
Altai ( alt, Алтай тил, Altay til) is a set of Turkic languages, spoken officially in the Altai Republic, Russia. The standard vocabulary is based on the Southern Altai language, though it's also taught to and used by speakers of the Northern Altai language as well. Gorno–Altai refers to a subgroup of languages in the Altai Mountains. The languages were called Oyrot (ойрот) prior to 1948. Altai is spoken primarily in the Altai Republic. There is a small community of speakers in the neighbouring Altai Krai as well. Classification Due to its isolated position in the Altai Mountains and contact with surrounding languages, the classification of Altai within the Turkic languages has often been disputed. Because of its geographic proximity to the Shor and Khakas languages, some classifications place it in a Northern Turkic subgroup.

Altai Flood
The Altai flood refers to the cataclysmic flood(s) that, according to some geomorphologists, swept along the Katun River in the Altai Republic at the end of the last ice age. These glacial lake outburst floods were the result of periodic sudden ruptures of ice dams like those triggering the Missoula floods. Background In the USA, large glacial outburst floods have been researched since the 1920s. In the 1980s, Russian geologist Alexei N. Rudoy proposed the term ''diluvium'' for deposits created as a result of catastrophic outbursts of Pleistocene giant glacier-dammed lakes in intermontane basins of the Altai. The largest of these lakes (the conjoined Chuya and Kuray) had a water volume of hundreds of cubic kilometers. Evidence Gravel ripples Giant current ripples (gravel wave trains, diluvial dunes and antidunes) up to 18 meters high and 225 meters in wavelength were created in several locations along the lake bottom. They are best developed just east of the Tyetyo River in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
