Last woman in lost mountain village keeps life of ancestors for over 30 years

When I feel blue and stressed I am looking for videos about places where I was happy. Not all the videos but kind of old made years and years ago. Looking at people leading their simple life far from harsh cities and full of work and joy and close nature... this makes me feel nostalgic and relax.
One day I came across the story of grandma Patimat who in her 90s was the last inhabitant of beautiful abandoned aul.
As a detective I was unraveling the tangle of her hidden in mountains life and I hope I could have a humble glimpse on her beautiful but hard story.
I want to share this story with you

[@710MaryJane]

Patimat was a STRONG, INDEPENDENT, and LOYAL TO HER ANCESTRY and CULTURE. 😢 May she Rest In Peace ❤

[@Dianeayr]

I so agree, may she now rest in peace and be reunited with her loved ones! Stories like this are very humbling, none of us truly knows what the future holds and it is so hard to be aware of the loneliness some of us will face. Your post is a reminder that there are people like this in the world, and I thank you for it.

[@judylloyd7901]

Umm, sorry, but could you tell me what was admirable? A recluse who eked out a living far from other people? Why is that admirable? Or brave? A person who lives their life in sacrificial giving for the benefit of others is admirable. Living alone, solely for oneself cannot be considered worthy of admiration.

This documentary made me feel so taken back to an old older time... With her staying there, where times at once were simpler,all alone, its unbelievable how she coped up there for FIFTY yrs alone... But the view from her bedroom. She wanted to stay,and if not for decay,time almost stands still in a place like that when youre alone,....im so impressed with this womans strength.

[@judylloyd7901]

Thirty years 😁👍 That's what the title said.

Yes ... 30 years. The other video mentioned in a post showed Biche who had lived all alone too in a deserted mountain village ... but for 50 years.

Its just,I saw another Documentary where they said shed been there for fifty yrs, maybe all together... Either way. The world surely is a place of many magical places and people,and imagine all thats happened throughout our footsteps on this earth....so many lives,people,destined,places, changes and mystery

Your videos are treasures. I subscribed. Patimat found joy, peace, realization living in solitude, she found peace despite her precarious living conditions. God didn't abandon her. He, all Mercy sent her animals to help her, be companions to her. Patimat was a brave human being who was loyal to her beloved ancestors' traditions and lived life fully. May God Merciful bless her soul, grant her soul eternal rest. Amen.

[@thabisilehappiness1026]

I'm realizing that humans are prone to self destruction and the closer we move together the stronger we destruct, the more advanced we say to be, the more we are destroying the earth, simplicity is not so simple, this woman was an expert in everything, farming, making dishes and plates, making clothes, a mother, a teacher...

[@MrAlepedroza]

And that's why this woman is the only one remaining in her town? Lol. Stupid analysis that will only get upvotes since most teens watching these kind of vids never read any anthropology or history beyond memes. War and genocide are statistically rare, same as societal breakdown or civilizational collapse. On the contrary, the more tribal and isolated we remain, the more likely we are to get wiped out, either by the elements or by our own hand. Its thanks to us getting together that we are able to slowly beat the elements and scarcity. Sure, we may pollute more than before, but that was unavoidable before we developped techbology that mitigated the impact while maintaining the standards. Soon enough, we'll be navigating space and master autonomous production while you paleo-losers struggle to survive one month, lol.

[@thabisilehappiness1026]

[@judylloyd7901]

@@thabisilehappiness1026 Human beings survive better in community. No one can be everything on their own. A woman can't be a mother without children, or a teacher without students. If the community hadn't built the village she would have had no home there. People need people.

Why? Why would they return? Why should they? Why would that be a good idea? What a lot of work to restore the buildings. Why would they bother? It's not an idyllic lifestyle. It might appear to be, romanticized as it has been by the video, perhaps. But, I can't see any benefits to going back to this. There are other ways to live a healthy life that would be preferable.

Landscape looks like Dagestan and Fatima is one of the many ethnicities lives there. Although It is a very difficult and harsh climate to live there but people are resilient.

Wow, what an interesting video. Thank you for sharing this video about Patimat’s life. She seemed to also be a hard-working person. Even at her age, she still lived by herself, yet she cooked and made her own food with her own materials and resources from the things that she learned from her childhood. I think my favorite parts of the video was when she actually had company with the animals that were near her, or when her family visited her. That was surely a happy moment for her. May she Rest In Peace. By the way Ksusha, I sent you a DM through Instagram, so please check it out whenever you have the time. Anyways, I hope you and your family are doing well❤️
