In the Mari El Republic, the Hill Mari are one of the most ancient and proudly distinctive branches of the Mari people — a nation of deep animistic spiritual tradition, and a fierce pride in their unique Hill Mari dialect and identity.
The Hill Mari are a proud Finno-Ugric people of the western Mari El Republic whose ancient culture has flourished for millennia on the elevated right bank of the great Volga — maintaining the ancient Mari traditional religion of Marla Vera with its sacred grove ceremonies and deep reverence for the natural world as one of the most living and vibrant indigenous spiritual traditions in all of European Russia, a rich tradition of distinctive folk costume embroidery and decorative art of great beauty, a celebrated oral tradition of songs, proverbs, and folk tales of remarkable richness, and a deep pride in their unique Hill Mari identity and dialect that has sustained their culture with extraordinary tenacity across centuries of life in the heart of the Russian Federation.
