{{Short description|Subdivision of the Khakass people of Siberia}}
The Koibal are one of the subdivisions of the [[Khakass]] people of Southern Siberia. Although they speak the [[Turkic languages|Turkic]] [[Koybal]] language, the Koibal have mixed ancestry. They formed in the late 19th century from the merger of the [[Abugach]], [[Baikot]], Kandyk, Tarazhak, Kol and Arsh peoples. Most of these people are believed to have been of ancestry more closely related to [[Samoyedic peoples]] or [[Yeniseian languages|Kettic]] peoples than to Turks.

The '''Koibal''' ({{Lang-kjh|хойбал}}) are one of the subdivisions of the [[Khakas people|Khakass]] people of Southern Siberia. Although they speak the Turkic [[Khakas language]], the Koibal have mixed ancestry and used to speak the [[Koibal dialect]] of the [[Kamassian language|Kamas language]], which is now extinct. They formed in the late 19th century from the merger of the [[Abugach]], {{ill|Baikot|ru|Байкотовцы}}, [[Kandyk tribe|Kandyk]], {{ill|Tarazhak tribe|lt=Tarazhak|ru|Модар}}, [[Kol tribe (Russia)|Kol]] and [[Arsh tribe|Arsh]] peoples. Most of these people are believed to have been of ancestry more closely related to [[Samoyedic peoples]] than to Turks. Koibals live in the [[Beysky District]] of Khakassia.<ref>{{cite journal |url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/315415527 |doi=10.21603/2500-1418-2016-1-2-78-84|title=Genetic Structure of the Khakass Sub-Ethnic Groups from Autosomal DNA Markers and Surnames |year=2016 |last1=Balanovska |first1=Elena |last2=Balaganskaya |first2=Olga |last3=Balaganskaya |first3=Olga |last5=Ul'Yanova |first5=Marina |last6=Ul'Yanova |first6=Marina |last7=Lavryashina |first7=Maria |last4=Lavryashina |first4=Maria |journal=Science Evolution |volume=1 |pages=78–84 |via=[[ResearchGate]]|doi-access=free }}</ref>
 
Prior to the rise of Communism the Koibal were officially Russian Orthodox. However they had retained many [[Shamanist]] and [[Animist]] customs.
