Beliefs and customs associated with the totem animals
In our country, strengthening the independence and the
entry of our country in a number of civilized countries, comprehension of the
principles of national, moral and material values, and problems of their
realization have important actuality nowadays . And this in turn requires the
culture development; people pass to future generations of experience,
achievements in the development, as well as the progressive traditions of
culture. Currently in the process of globalization in linguistics is widely
spread viewing vectors in different ethno-linguistic, psychological-linguistic, linguo-cultural
cognitive, cognitive-linguistic theory and the "image of the world
language. At the present time, viewing the universe in the language of the
unity world model image in general human cognition and conceptual image of the
whole world is both philosophical and philological concept. From
this point of view, we will consider the
totem animal of Turkic peoples,
including the ideological character of phraseology associated
with the totem ‘kok bor³’ (wolf)
and a bear. Animal totems are of Turkic-speaking peoples: kok bor³ (wolf), bear, deer, argali (mountain sheep), a
dog, worshiped all kinds of cattle, swan, crow, hawk, vulture, eagle, owl, and
many other birds, totems and revered serpent , a dragon, and other inanimate
objects to tote Frequent totem among the Yakuts - an eagle, swan and vulture;
Teleuts - eagle in Altai - a bear, the Khakass - eagle Tuvinian - the swan and
the eagle at the Tuva’s fish,
vulture, eagle, swan, gull. Raven was considered sacred to the peoples Turkic-Khakas,
Tuvan, Yakut Sakha. In Yakuts Sakha Crow was not only a totem, they have
existed th Wolf Totem. In the sentence "B³zd³n tanbamyz
Bereke bolsyn, uranymyz kok bor³ bolsyn!" (Let Our sign will be unity, but
will appeal kok bor³ (wolf)), through a combination of " tanbamyz
Bereke bolsyn " (even the sign of our unity will be) Turkic-speaking
peoples from the beginning showed their desire to solidarity, unity and
friendship. Through a combination of "Uranymyz
kok bor³ bolsyn!" (Our call will let kok bor³
(wolf)) ca Wolf been deemed a sacred animal among many Turkic peoples since
ancient times. The image is used to kөk bөr³ Kazakh banner. This is
a direct continuation of the "wolf banner" of the Turks. This can be
seen in poems akin Suyunbaev: to be as brave, persistent and bold as a wolf.
"Bor³ uranym bass,
Bor³l³ Menin bayraғym.
Bor³l³ bayrak koterse,
Kozyp Keter Kaydagim
Oguz Kagan from victory to victory resulted in a
blue roan, blue wolf. Oguz Kagan before leaving the field against other
countries distribute their subordinate feudal lords and the people of this
decree: "Men senderge kagan Bolden, Alyndar zhak kalkan foams, Tanba b³zge bolsyn Bereke. "Kok bor³
bolsyn uran" I became your Hagan.
Oguz Kagan before leaving the field against

this decree: "Men senderge Kagan Bolden, Alyndar zhak kalkan foams, Tanba
b³zge bolsyn Bereke."Kok bor³
bolsyn uran" I became your Hagan. for their bows and
shields. Let our unity will be familiar, even if our call to be a wolf) [1;10].
Here you can see that the line "Kok bor³ bolsyn uran" has a deep philosophical meaning.
Because kok bor³ elevated to the level of the slogan in this line has
long been revered and sacred animal in many Turkic-speaking people. And if the
story "Yer Targyn" the protagonist is portrayed as the
"Hay bet³nen k³r³p, Kun bet³nen shygatyn kok bor³"
the courage Kambar batyr described as " This peculiar feature of the
Kyrgyz and tales. Even in the famous Kyrgyz "Manas" Manas batyr
described as "kara shagyr kabylany myeon koseu
қuyryk kok
arystannan tys, arkasynda kara kok zhaly bar
zholyna Nur tog³lgen bala”:
Arkasynda balanyn,
Kara kok zhaly kor³nd³.

Koseu kuyryk kok Arystan
On zhagynda қabyndy.
Nur tog³l³p zholyna
Bar³ oylagan balanyn
Manas dep aty tabyldy [2;19].
Therefore, the image of "Bor³" shows the world wide Turkic-speaking
people. In the knowledge of our ancestors kok bor³ -
light Tengri is a symbol of victory and
heroism.
Among the Turkic peoples are found proverbs,
beliefs associated with kok bor³, wolf.
The proverb "Koidyn ies³ Bolsa, bor³n³n tan³r³
bar" or "Itt³n ies³ Bolsa, bor³n³n tan³r³
bar" at the Kyrgyz people sounds like: "Maldyn ies³
Bolsa, bor³n³n tan³r³ bar" and the Russian people, "The dog
is the owner, and the wolf is the god
". Bor³ – dog
Tengri, so people have a belief that if the
sheep into the pen will attack the wolf people will interpret this as a good
sign, "Kok bor³n³n auzy
tid³, kok tan³r³ қoldaydy, mal os³p,
Jaman Bolado." Kazakh people defines the relationship with the wolf and the
mountain wilderness, "Eld³ poles ұry bar Taulu poles bөr³
bar", "Bor³ kyr askansha", "Dalada bor³ ulysa, uydeg³
itt³n ³sh³ ashidy." Arab proverb says, "Um urse kalma,
elge aparar, bor³ ulysa Barma, sholge
aparar." This proverb says that a wolf was considered as a bad
omen. The Kazakhs of Mongolia believed that a lot of shooting wolves and wolf
cubs take away bad luck and forbidden to do so. They feared that the wolf will
return and take revenge, "Kaskyr kaytse b³r soқpay ketpeyd³" [3;68]. The
proverb "Kaskyrdyn zhese de auzy қan, Zhemese de auzy kan"
(in the sense that you need to beware of shamelessness when every dirty, it
will be difficult to purify) shows the similarity of bases in two languages: Uzbek, "Ena
Burining ham oғzi қon, Emas ham oғzi қon" /"Áóðèíèíã
åñà õàì îғçè қîí, Åìàñà õàì îғçè қîí".
In the totem wolf had two names, the first - kok
bor³, according to the historical
tradition of honor, that is, seen as a totem, the second - the enemy of cattle,
regarded as a predatory animal. The ancestors of the Kazakhs Huns in ancient
times believed a wolf totem. One particular image that was made Hunnish masters,
sculptures made of gold, intended for the ancestors, the wolf's
head of gold, both of which are paintings of worship. Gong when he remembered
his ancestors looked to the sky and worshiped, this sculpture. The name of one
of the Turkic tribes - Ashina-ince, comes from the word meaning "noble
wolf" [4;23]. The legend of Ashina says at the time of the raid enemies, a
wolf (bus-a Mongol is translated as a wolf), adopted a boy who was left at the
site of the old parking lot of the nomads. The descendants of Turkic Ashina are
descended from the descendants of the boy. Not only the Turks believe that
their ancestors came from the wolf, the Romans also call themselves descendants
of the wolf. In times of states were originated belief that the ancestor of the
Turks is kөk bөr³.
Not only the Kazakhs, Kyrgyz and Uzbeks,
Turkmens, Tatars saw the wolf as a sacred animal, and called him directly, for
example, Kazakhs it was called "uzyn kulak" "t³k êulak", "ulyma",
"kokzhal", "um-қus
"Uzbeks used the transition to the meaning of" itkush
"(um-қós), Turkmens used ephemism" hells zh³ten
"(untitled), mesdan um (the dog of the steppes). The Kazakhs, even at the
present time do not call his name. Pastoralists believed that if you call him a
"wolf," then he will attack livestock. When people meet on the
village tradition of asking, "um-Malyn қustan
aman ba?". It is the imprint of ancient totemism. The people have a belief
that if a wolf runs ahead of the traveler, he is lucky.
Turkic-Altai people, too, thought the wolf a
sacred animal, and called his name, for example, Soyots called him "uzyn қuyrykty", "ulyma", "kok
koz," Kaczynski Tartars called "uzyn қuyryk" and Yakuts "қuyrykty." Altai Turks did not use a direct
name "time", instead use the term "aga" and Chuvash,
instead of "kashkyr" to be using such names euphemistically as
"uzyn қuyryk",
"tokpak қuyryk"
or "tan³r it³" [5;101]
.
The image kok bor³ visible sign of totemism, fetishism, animalism. There
were beliefs about the tendons, bones and meat are the wolf. For example, in
the old village residents to find a person committed a theft, said
"қasқyrdyң taramysyn өrtegel³ zhatyrmyn"
(going to burn the tendon of a wolf). It turned out to have believed that
burned leg tendon glimmering thief. A thief who scared that he had leg cringe:
"Ayagym tartylyp kalady"
nemese "Taramys, s³n³r³m tartylyp kalady",
he brought the stolen item.
It was believed to carry the bone wolf as a
mascot. Fat and meat of the wolf used to treat tuberculosis. There is a belief
that if the Kazakh women during pregnancy craving meat wolf, the boy born to
them will be brave, courageous. For instance: mother of famous warriors and XVI
century Orak Mamai Karaulek azhe sings thus:
"... Mamayzhan
boyga b³tkende,
Arystan, bor³ et³n zhep,
Kanyp ed³ zher³g³m "(23 zhoқtau, Moscow,
1926).
One of these wild animals is a bear. We bear the
name was a taboo, "aba". Ancient hunters saw a bear as a protector of
all animals, the patron saint of hunters, the ancestor of all mankind, seen as
a creator. When referring to the views of the researchers: "During the
Paleolithic bear went over to totemic cult of fire-Mother" [6, 201-202.].
Therefore, hunters are afraid to eat meat of
bear. "Buryats, even if not considered a bear totem, an animal does
not have murdered his eyes gouged out assuming a star, and told" We're not
killed, murdered, and hamnigany Urynkhay black crows court. At the same time
shouting at the Raven "- conveys M.N.Hangalov [7;53-55].
Kazakhs rezaya cattle said "You have no guilt, and we have no food,"
and this meant that they ask for forgi Adoration of the bear is common in the
Altai, Tuvan, Saha, Khakas and Buryat. Turkic-speaking peoples are not called
directly by name, and used the euphemistic naming. For example, the Yakut
called "eһe"
(grandfather), "tyataagy", "kyrdagas" Altai
"abaay" (her father), "karyndash", "taay" Teleuts
"Eph kulakty," "Cheer hulahtyg" Tuva "kayirahan"
(king of the creatures) [5;100].
Kazakhs also honored the bear. The Kazakhs have
devoted bears kyuyi "Zhorga ayu", "Ayu bi³." Also, there are names of people like Ayub,
Ayuhan, Ayukhanov, etc.
In the ancient residence there names as Arslan
(Lion), Aşına (Wolf), Bars (Leopard), Buqa (raindeer), Küçük
(puppy), Qaban (wild boar), Qulan (kulan), Teka (goat), and etc. The Tatars were called
wolf "áүðå"
Leopard "Leopard" lion "Arslan", as there are people they
are: Baiburin, Burke, Buriev, Burikaev, leopard, snow leopards, Aybaris/
Aybarys, Ilbars, Ilbaris, Bibarsov, Akbars, Arslan, Baybүre, Bug, Baybuga, Kөchek, Kүbәk, ets. And, among the ancient people names tyureoyazychnyh Arslan/ Arslan called
the rulers of Turfan, and Karahan: Arslan balban, Arslan tegin, Arslan Bilge
Tengri ilig [8;156].
In conclusion, people Turkish language talking wolf
and the bear were considered as bold, fierce, brisk, courageous animals.
Perhaps because of this brave young men were taught to be strong, took heart,
accustomed to the courage and bravery.
