You probably mean mongolid and not mongoloid (with the 3rd O), the latter being a serious medical condition and most probably offending for the Koryaks, as it implies mental deficiencies. -- Szabi 22:21, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
Doesn't "Mongoloid" mean Mongol? Besides, I doubt there are many Koryans here, anyway.-- 68.170.86.111 20:50, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

this article claims there are more Koryaks in Kamchatka alone! Well, at least one of the articles must be incorrect?

There is some extreme cultural bias in this article that needs to be fixed. Why is there little mention of early, traditional history? Where are a list of notable Koryaks? This article should be put on some list that experts look at soon. CharlesRobertCountofNesselrode 23:35, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
When outnumbered they would kill their women and children, set fire to their homes, and die fighting. Doubt in that. Their traditional homes made from animal skins and its not easy to set it on fire without gasoline or somth... They burned their dead. Doubt in that to. Because there are simply not to much wood in that area. And chukchi, for example, just leave their dead in tundra for wild animals. I belive Koryaks have pretty much the same traditions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.110.23.252 ( talk) 21:47, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
Koryak cremation of dead is documented in Jochelson (1908). Koryaks live in subarctic mixed forest-tundra and not in treeless tundra of Chukchi. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ememqut1901 ( talk • contribs) 16:53, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
The comment in this article that the Koryaks themselves colonized Haida Gwaii, and then all of North and South America (!) is obviously absurd and should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:A000:B9C1:1A00:FD7E:B5FF:73E6:5F84 ( talk) 15:48, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
A lot of Christmas traditions stem from the Koryak's handling of the poisonous red and white capped mushrooms Amanita Muscaria; such as the drying of freshly picked Muscaria on trees or putting them in socks over fireplaces at night. They also lived in smaller tee-pee's so during a blizzard, the shaman dressed in red and white would come inside through the roof. One of the traditions involved the mushroom being chewed and then spit into one anthers mouth to be engulfed during meditation. The compounds in amanita muscaria are so strong that they are still active even after being urinated out, so Reindeer may sometimes venture near or inside their dwelling when they smell it.

One thing I should mention is that they don't like it when strangers ask about amanita. Someone's child suffocated when they didn't chew the mushroom thoroughly and the inside burned their esophagus. Another time a female traveler visited and ate them as a substitute for food when she had pneumonia, and I'm afraid the dizzyness and temperature raise caused her death. While the mushrooms don't typically kill people they contain nuero-toxic compounds when they aren't decarbolaxed or dried thouroghly!
