How Do Digor-Ossetians Live — Indigenous People Of The North Caucasus

The Digor or Digor people are a subgroup of the Ossetians (Alans). They speak the Digor dialect of the Eastern Iranian Ossetian language, which in USSR was considered a separate language until 1937. Starting from 1932 it is considered just a dialect of Ossetian language. In the 2002 Russian Census 607 Digors were registered, but in the 2010 Russian Census their number was only 223. The Digor mainly live in Digorsky, Irafsky, Mozdoksky districts and Vladikavkaz, North Ossetia–Alania, also in Kabardino-Balkaria, Turkey and Syria.
