Mythical Tatar. From the supreme Tengri and Kudai to Sabantuy and ice wires

Who were Yajuj and Majuj, and why did the Tatars fear them? How did Shurale lure travelers into the forest? Why did the spirits of the house only help those who respected them?

This book is the key to a wondrous universe where the sky belongs to the formidable Tengri, the earth is guarded by the ancestral mother Umai, and the treacherous Suanasy lurks in the dark waters. You will learn how the Tatars envisioned the world and their place in it, what myths and legends they passed down from generation to generation, how they "negotiated" with the spirits so they would protect rather than harm them, and much more.
