Genetical and demographic studies of typical rural population of Turkomen teke in Yangi-Kala village of the Ashkhabad region (about 5.000 inhabitants) were performed through the examination of a sample of 3528 persons. The population is characterised by intensive growth (mean number of children per one woman is 6.17), a high level of endogamy (the total coefficient of inbreeding being 0.010912), preserving the traditional marriage system (91.9 and 8.1% of intrageneric and intergeneric marriages, respectively). Migration does not significantly influence endogamy, because it takes place among kin families.
