The Birth of Myth Rojstvo mita
The author discusses the parallel concepts of the mythological texts and images, using selected examples mainly from Inner and Central Asia. Discussed are the typological parallels: hill, tree, woman. The research has proven distant typological similarities and mythological universalia
Shamanic and\or cognitive evolution
Many misconceptions have been associated with shamanism. Recent studies, however, show a way to reinterpret basic concepts concerning shamanism. New field data from ethnology/anthropology, and studies on cognitive evolution have provided new results to enable a reconstruction of some mechanisms which contributed to early developments in the social life and intellectual history of prehistoric people. Shamanic healing methods, simple rhythmic and m…
Le chamanisme dans la culture hongroise
Dans l'ethnologie hongroise, la recherche sur le chamanisme bénéficie d'une longue tradition. Dès le xix e siècle, il est établi que l'ancienne religion des Hongrois (antérieure au x e siècle) était le chamanisme. Depuis lors, les scientifiques enquêtent sur ses traces et croient le retrouver dans les légendes des peuples soit finno-ougriens, soit turco-mongols (altaïques). Cette étude évoque quelques-uns des motifs fondamentaux (combat du sorcie…
Tracing Shamans in Tuva
In the geographical centre of Asia - in today's Tuva Republic, within the frame of the Russian Federation - there lives a small ethnic group which the historical and ethnographic literature variously calls Soyot, Uriankhai, Tofa, Todzha. To fully appreciate the work of Mongush Kenin-Lopsan (1997), it is worth getting to know the history of research on Tuva shamanism. We need to do so especially since Hungarian researchers, including Vilmos Diósze…

Studies on Mythology and Uralic Shamanism
Natur worship in shamanism
During the last few decades animism has escaped the attention of scholars of comparative religion. Animism, however, still represents a very important concept both in the world view and the shamanism of Northern Siberian peoples. In this paper different types of the concept of the soul will be enumerated, and animistic notions of Siberian shamanism will be presented against that background. Special attention will be paid to the different types of…

Shamanism in a postmodern age
A few decades ago it was generally held that shamanism in Siberia had ceased to exist and belonged among the worthless ideological memories of the past. This opinion prevailed both in the communist Soviet Union which still existed at that time, as well as in other parts of the world, in the western capitalist countries. In the mid-20th century and even in the sixties and seventies both ideological systems still lived in the fever of development. …

Verbal Associations in the Analysis of Subjective Culture [and Comments and Reply]
We present a method for comparative culture analysis which undertakes empirical assesment of "implicit" or "subjective" culture through culture-specific meanings and cognitive organization. Verbal association tasks are used to identify high-priority domains in a given culture, to select words representative of these domains, and to asses the culture-specific cognitive organization as defined by the cultural meaning of the words or domains and the…
