This is volume twenty-one of the series “Monuments of Ethnic Culture of The Small Indigenous Nations of North, Siberia and the Far East" started in 2004. The Jukaghir plateau in the North-East part of Siberia, in the basin of the Kolyma River and Omolon (Yakutia and Magadan region) is the place of living for the Jukaghirs (self-named Odul or Wadul). According to some scholars, they came to this place about 10,000 years ago. The Jukaghir language and culture are still one of the least studied and their origin is still unclear. This monograph analyzes the unique mythological outlook of the people and their origins. (0.305 kg.)
