Domna Maksimovna Khomyuk (née Zakharova, Туомн Хомюк, Russian: link=no|Домна Максимовна Хомюк, née Захарова; born September 10, 1954, in Koarrdõgk, Murmansk, Soviet Union) is a Russian Kildin Sámi zootechnician, author, translator, and musician. She is also active in the revitalization of the Kildin Sámi language and culture.[1]

Early life

Domna Maksimovna Khomyuk was born on September 10, 1954, in Koarrdõgk (Коа̄ррдэгк[2] and Russian: link=no|Воронье).[1] Her parents were reindeer herders and decorated war veterans. Her father was Maksim Antonovich Zakharov (1919–1984)[3] and her mother Mariya Ivanovna Zakharova (1922–2008).[4] Together they went on to have a total of 9 children[5] [6]

In 1962, the Soviet Union decided to build the Serebryanskaya hydroelectric power station near where they lived. To do this, they had to dam the Koarrdõgk River. A few years later, when the entire village of Koarrdõgk was going to be flooded and submerged under the new reservoir, the family were moved to Lovozero.[6] [7]

Education and career

Khomyuk majored in zootechnology at Sortavala Agricultural School (Russian: link=no|Сортавальский сельскохозяйственный техникум).[1] After graduation, she worked more than 25 years in an agricultural production cooperative.[1] Later on, she started working in various public administratation posts. In addition, she started to serve the public in various positions of responsibility such as the 10 years she spent as the president of the Lovozero election committee, as a member on the board of the yoikers' association Juoigiid Searvi, and as a member of the Working Group of Indigenous Peoples in the Barents-Euro Arctic Region.[1] [8] [9] [10] [11]

Music

The traditional vocal music of the Kildin Sámi called luvvt or livvt (лыввьт or луввьт) has been a part of Khomyuk's life since she was born. Both Ageeva's mother and grandmother sang luvvts and her mother was a famous singer of them.[6] [12] Her mother sang these with music groups like Lujavvr (Луяввьр) and Ojar (Ойяр).[4] [12] [13] Some of her luvvts have been recorded; these are archived in Norway, Estonia, Germany, etc.[4] Khomyuk's sister, Anfisa Ageeva, is also well-known for her luvvt singing.

In 2002, the year after her sister won the yoik category of the Sámi Grand Prix, Khomyuk entered the yoik and song competition for the first time.[14] [15] Her entry for the yoik category was a luvvt called Luojavr (Луяввьр), which describes Lovozero, her home town. In 2003 and 2019 she competed in the same category, but now as a duo with her sister Anfisa Ageeva.[15] In 2003, their entry was entitled Duottar and in 2019, Vuess. In 2021, Khomyuk entered the competition once again, this time as a solo act.[16] Her entry was called Parrša vigket (Па̄ррьшя вигетѣ).[17]

Awards

On April 27, 2019, Khomyuk received the Áillohaš Music Award, a Sámi music award conferred by Kautokeino Municipality and the Kautokeino Sámi Association to honor the significant contributions the recipient or recipients has made to the diverse world of Sámi music.[18] [15] [19] [20]
