Tungusic peoples

Tungusic peoples are the peoples who speak Tungusic languages. They inhabit Eastern Siberia and are recognized as distinct from Mongols and Turkic peoples. The first European description of a Tungusic people was by the Dutch traveller Isaac Massa in 1612.〔(Asia in the Making of Europe, Volume III: A Century of Advance. Book 4. By Donald F. Lach )〕
==Etymology==
The word Tungus derives from "Donki", which means "men" in Tungusic languages.〔(The Languages of the Seat of War in the East, By Max Müller, 1855 )〕 It has also been suggested that the word derives from "tungus", which means pig.〔
Some scholars〔(The Collected Works of M.A. Czaplicka, Volume 1, Marie Antoinette Czaplicka, p88 )〕 suggest derivation from the Chinese word Donghu (東胡, "Eastern Barbarians", cf. ''Tonggu'' 通古 = Tungusic). This "chance similarity in modern pronunciation", writes Pulleyblank, "led to the once widely held assumption that the Eastern Hu were Tungusic in language. However, there is little basis for this theory."〔Pulleyblank (1983), p. 452〕
