Ethnic identities, as it is conceived by the relativist anthropological approach, is a symetric structure whose two constituent elements, the Same and the Other, are equivalent ontological identities. For traditional societies, the relation between constituent elements of this bipolar structure is by definition hierarchised : one is always superior or inferior to the other, the foreigner is far away of a neighbour. This asymetrical relation presupposes the existence of a precarious equilibrum of the relations between the autonomous ethnics groups engaged in mutually profitable relations. The text presented here analyses the identitary paradigm of several Sout- East European societies through two series of myths. The first serie is composed of exogenous etiologie myths, that is to say accounts on the origins of foreign ethnic groups : « hairy », or in other terms « uneducated » and « wild ». The second serie is composed of endogenous accounts, obviously apologetic
