Abstract

The history moment is not isolated; representing a complex of past, present and future, which is constantly a struggle of old and new. The epic attitude, worldview and world outlook of Olonkho convey a complex web and multi-structured manifestations, each branch of which grows out of the whole range of mythological world perception, its universal view. The article presents the attempt of tracing the dialectic of mythological thinking of the ancestors of the Sakha – myth-makers, whose heritage is full of epic creativity of Sakha to the level of speculative reasoning and meaningful interpretation in order to maximize the attainment of deeper layers of the Olonkho, which allow to expand the boundaries of understanding of the mythological beliefs role of their ancestors in the cultural and historical conveying of spiritual values of the people. In terms of deleting of national peculiarities, the need for its reconstruction, which continues to be one of the least studied topics in range of questions of ethnogenesis and cultural genesis, becomes pointed.
