This Week in History Culture of Lithuania Culture of Lithuania in the news Pre-lithuanian period ( till about the end of X century A.C.). Lithuanian nation rose in VII – XI centuries A.C. from Baltic nations group. Balts , the ancestors of Lithuanians and Latvians , had arrived to territories between Dnepr Daugava rivers and the Baltic see from hypothetic Indo-European original homeland. Many scientists date this arrival to 3 millenary B.C. We may only suppose, that Balts, which had been arrived with the main wave of Indo-Europeans, were not included in forming processes or later Indo-European nations in South and Western Europe. Balts stayed away from this development, and their culture preserved primeval features of Indo-European culture for long time. When, later, contacts with new-formed European nations increased, differences between this primary (not without some evolutionary changes, anyway) culture and culture of new Indo-European nations in Europe were on such level, that closer cultural interchange was quite impossible. This allowed to preserve cultural differences from last Europe and caused isolation (or, maybe, self-isolation) of Balts. After Goths domination times in Europe, we can find vestiges of Balts in more restricted territory between

Lithuania GP 3,728,000 ~ JP 6,000 Demography Most Jews live in Vilnius (Vilna), the capital, but there are also several smaller communities, notably in Kaunas (Kovno), Klajpeda (Memel), and Siauliai. History Jews trace their origins in Lithuania back to the days of Grand Duke Gedeyminus, who founded the first Lithuanian state in the 14th century. By the late 15th century, there were already thriving communities. In time, Vilnius became known as the "Jerusalem of Lithuania," a great center of Jewish religious learning. A street in the Jewish quarter of Vilnius L. Werner, 1930 The Jews of Lithuania lived an intense Jewish life, and their role and influence in the major Jewish political and cultural movements were far greater than their numbers would have suggested. On the eve of the Shoah, there were about 160,000 Jews in independent Lithuania and another 60,000 in Vilnius and the surrounding area, which were transferred to Lithuania after the Soviet conquest of eastern Poland. That population was bolstered by Jewish refugees from German-occupied Poland. During the German occupation, about 95% of Lithuanian Jewry was killed (a greater percentage than in any other community in Europe), in large measure due to the enthusiastic participation of ethnic Lithuanians.

From 1864-1904, as a means of russification, Russia had decreed that Lithuanian books should be printed in the Russian alphabet. Lithuanians countered by printing Lithuanian books [using the Latin alphabet] outside Lithuania and then smuggling them into Lithuania via a network of book-runners. Lithuanian Americans assisted with financing the printing of these books outside of Lithuania.
