Rukopisi Verkhokam’ia (Manuscripts of Upper Kamah, 15 th -20 th
Centuries), 1401-2000
These manuscripts are representative of the culture of the Russian people who first settled the area of
Upper Kamah in the 16 th century and whose migrations greatly increased in the 17 th century. These
people, mainly Old Believers, were fleeing church reforms and were looking for a place where they
were able to continue observing their rituals and traditions. A part of the Old Believers population
were forbidden to use books written after the Nikonian Reform. Thus they used manuscripts instead,
until the 20 th century. These manuscripts, although mostly religious in nature, are also reflective of
the lives and ideas of the Old Believers.
