《鄂温克族简史》(1983年出版,以下简称《简史》)认为,鄂温克族来源于沿贝加尔地方,他们的祖先是北室韦和鞠部,并提出了向东发展说.我认为,鄂温克族来源于乌苏里江、绥芬河、图们江下游等流域,他们的祖先是靺鞨七部之一的安居骨部,并提出向西发展说. A Brief History of the Ewenki Minority (published in 1983, hereinafter referred to as “Brief History”) holds that the Ewenki people originated from the Baikal region and that their ancestors were Bei-wei Wei and Ju-bae and proposed to go eastward. In my opinion, The Ewenki ethnic group originated from the Wusuli River, Suifenhe River and the lower reaches of the Tumen River. Their ancestors were home to the bones of one of the seven monasteries, and proposed to develop westward.
