<p>Noyster: /* top */ sp</p> <hr /> <div>The '''Kashgartsy''' or '''Kashgars''' were a group of [[Uigurs]] who migrated from [[Kashgar]] to the [[Russian Empire]] during the 18th and 19th Centuries. Prior to the 1930s they were classed as a separate ethnic group. The 1926 census counted 13,010 Kashgars in the [[Soviet Union]].<br /> <br /> Despite their reclassification, there were 18 people who self reported being Kashgars in the 2002 Census of Russia. However since most of the Kashgars had initially migrated to [[Kazakhstan]], [[Uzbekistan]] and [[Kyrgyzstan]], this low number in Russia tells us little about how most Kashgars self-identify.<br /> <br /> ==Sources==<br /> * Waxman, Ronald.
