You've probably never heard of Agafia Lykov.
Most people haven't, and that's intentional: Agafia is a hermit who lives miles from the nearest town, in the Siberian wilderness.
Agafia's homestead was built across much of the 20th century by her family — its only residents since about 1937. That was the year that Agafia's father, Karp, set off with his wife and two children into the Siberian wilderness.

Over 300 years later, Agafia still practices the beliefs her parents brought to the Siberian wilderness.
