В статье рассматривается символика синего цвета в современной локальной погребально-поминальной обрядности обских коми. Полевые исследования в ряде поселков ХМАО-Югры и ЯНАО выявили, что у проживающих там коми-ижемцев синий цвет считается «похоронным». В с. Овгорт (ЯНАО) во второй половине ХХ в. сложился обычай хоронить пожилых людей в синих или голубых гробах (их окрашивали синькой), иногда в черных, а молодых — в красных. Поскольку красный цвет…

The Beliefs Regarding the Shadow among the Eastern Slavs and the Komi People in Western Siberia: A Comparative Analysis of the Fieldwork Dаta
The shadow was perceived as a substance inhabiting two realms at the same time and was associated with the soul- doppelganger of a person. The author’s field research demonstrates that Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians and Komi people living in Western Siberia retain the belief that the shadow-soul appears before a person’s death in the form of the doppelgänger, an animal, a bird or an invisible substance. This doppelgänger makes sounds and bruis…

The legend of Tan-varp-ekva
The object of the study is the texts about Tan-varp-ekva, «the tendon twistress», recorded during the 20th c.

In many cultures it is believed that the ancestors can become mythical patrons of a clan or a family (chur, domovoy (hobgoblin)). They help their descendants, protect them from the negative impact of alien spirits, sorcerers, and harmful corpses (navs). Our conclusions are based on the ethnographic field material, collected in different regions of Western Siberia, m…
Mythological Characters of the Domestic Space in Russian Folk Beliefs: Lexicographic and Ethnographic Aspects
Russian mythological characters relating to the domestic space are described on the basis on folkloric, ethnographic, and lexicographic sources.
