Abstract

The Ewenki nationality is one of the minorities with a small population in China. The statistical population in the sixth China population census is 30,875. The ancestors of Ewenki are the forest hunters living in the Khingan Mountains. They are currently mainly located in the counties, districts, and townships of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and Heilongjiang Province, and live a farming settlement life. The Ewenki nationality is a special nation with only ethnic languages and no ethnic language. Now it mainly uses Chinese, and also uses Mongolian and Ewenki languages. In the long history and rich traditional culture of the Ewenki people, the most prominent one is the music culture. Ewenki music culture is an important part of the music culture of the Chinese nation, a valuable asset of the Ewenki people and even the Chinese nation, as well as a true portrayal of the Ewenki hunting to nomadic life.
