The Chulym Tatars first came to the [[Chulym River (Ob River)|Chulym River]] when they were driven from their homes in the [[Sibir Khanate]] by the forces of [[Ermak Timofeevich]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Wixman|first=Ronald|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XpcuDwAAQBAJ&q=chulym+tatar&pg=PA48|title=Peoples of the USSR: An Ethnographic Handbook|publisher=Routledge|year=2017|isbn=978-1-315-47540-0|pages=48|language=en}}</ref> They used to live along the middle and lower reaches of the [[Chulym River (Ob River)|Chulym River]] (tributary of the [[Ob River]]). The [[Russians]] used to call them the Chulymian [[Tatars]]. The Chulyms appeared in the 16th century as a result of mixing of some of the [[Turkic peoples|Turkic]] groups, who had migrated to the East after the fall of the [[Khanate of Sibir]], partially [[Teleuts]], [[Yenisei Kyrgyz]] and groups of [[Zabolotnie Tatars|Tobolsk Tatars]].<ref name=":0" />

During the 16th century, the Russian conquered the Chulyms and their newly settled land.

Under Soviet rule, the Chulyms were [[Collective farming|collectivized]] and forced to adopt a sedentary lifestyle. The ideologies of the Soviet government were also imposed upon the Chulyms and their culture.<ref name=":0" /> Most of the Chulyms' descendants blended with the [[Khakas people|Khakas]] and Russians.
