The Udmurts beyond the River Kama form a separate ethnic group of Udmurts who have settled in the northern part of Bashkiria and the southern regions of the Perm Province. The Udmurts beyond the Kama have followed an ancient cult of earth and pray to nature up to the present day. Compared to other ethnic groups of Udmurts they have managed to preserve their folklore in better form. The ancient traditions are by no means purposeless and are actively practised in everyday and ceremonial rituals.
