鄂温人（一部分自称Even或Oven，另一部分自称Orochel），过去称为拉穆特人（鄂温语：海洋的人），被俄国人转音为“埃文人”，是生活在东西伯利亚的民族，在俄罗斯联邦马加丹州、堪察加边疆区以及萨哈共和国北部勒拿河以东的地区都有分布。根据2002年人口统计，人口为19071。他们有104人生活在乌克兰。

鄂温人的语言鄂温语属于阿尔泰语系的通古斯语族。从起源和文化看来，他们和鄂温克人比较接近，也有人说他们是鄂温克人的分支（他们本来生活在外贝加尔一带）。19世纪沙俄控制西伯利亚以后，鄂温人多在形式上皈依东正教，但仍保留许多原来的萨满教信仰。他们狩猎，捕捞，养驯鹿为生。他们在农业集体化后，改为定居养鹿与务农。

The Evens (English pronunciation:/əˈvɛn/) (formerly known as the Lamuts a term meaning "ocean people" in Even) (эвэн, pl. эвэсэл in Even and эвены in Russian) are a people in Siberia and the Russian Far East. They live in some of the regions of the Magadan Oblast and Kamchatka Krai and northern parts of Sakha east of the Lena River. According to the 2002 census, there were 19,071 Evens in Russia. According to the 2010 census, there were 22,383 Evens in Russia. They speak their own Even language, one of the Tungusic languages. The Evens are close to the Evenks by their origins and culture. Officially, they were considered to be of Orthodox faith since the 19th century, but the Evens managed to preserve different forms of non-Christian beliefs, such as shamanism. Traditional Even life is centred upon nomadic pastoralism of domesticated reindeer, supplemented with hunting, fishing and animal-trapping. There were 104 Evens in Ukraine, 19 of whom speaking Even.
