Oral folklore has great importance in studying early forms of religious beliefs. The shamanic worldview found expression not only in rituals, but also in folklore. During their seances, Tuvinian shamans "voyaged" in the "subterranean" world, the "celestial" world, and the "middle" world, populated by people. The shamans told their listeners of their impressions and actions. It might be said that shamans created worlds through words. Yet shamanic poetry has not yet been investigated as a part of Tuvinian folklore
