The Uilta people, also known as the Orok, are an indigenous people of [[Sakhalin]]. They traditionally had some degree of contact and trade relations with [[Ainu]] groups and others, who often referred to them by terms such as ''kur'' and ''utar'' (meaning non-Ainu clans or tribes), or ''rebunkur'' (clans of beyond the sea), denoting peoples not of their own (Ainu) in-group but also not as foreign as, for example, Europeans.<ref>Tessa Morris-Suzuki, "The Frontiers of Japanese Identity," in Stein Tønnesson and Hans Antlöv (eds.), ''Asian Forms of the Nation'', Psychology Press (1996), 45.</ref>

In the 19th century, if not earlier, the Uilta people began to have some contact and trade with Russians. In the late 1850s, some efforts were made by the [[Tokugawa shogunate]] to provide aid, care, and education for the Uilta communities on Sakhalin.<ref>Ishin Shiryô Kôyô 維新史料綱要, vol 2 (1937), 270, 277.</ref>
