Kellog (Russian: Келлог, Ket: Ӄлукдиӈиль, Qlukdiŋil) is a rural locality (a settlement) in Turukhansky District of Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia. It is located by the Yeloguy River, a left tributary of the Yenisey.
Population
Kellog is one of the three localities in which the Ket people, a Yeniseian ethnic group historically widespread along the Yenisey river, live. Their Ket language, the only of the Yeniseian languages to survive to the present day, is thought by some linguists to be related to the Na-Dene languages of Native Americans. It is also the only location in Russia where the Ket language is taught in schools.
Ket people in Kellog speak the Southern Ket dialect, the most widespread of the three Ket varieties. It is distinct from those spoken in the other two Ket localities, Central Ket in Surgutikha and Northern Ket in Maduika.
As of the 2010 Census, the ethnic composition in Kellog was as follows:
Ket people: 216 (70.6%)
Russians: 71 (23.2%)
Others: 19 (6.2%)
The tomb of Alexander Kotusov (1955–2019), a Ket folk singer and poet, is near the village.
