Kurykans – the ancestors of the Sakha people: the search for truth
https://doi.org/10.25587/2587-5612-2024-3-102-111
Abstract
The article is devoted to one of the versions of the origin of the Sakha people. The problem itself today already has its own considerable historiography and continues to remain controversial. In the Yakut scientific community as a whole, the prevailing opinion is about the representatives of the Kurumchiculture ‒ the Kurykans, an ancient Turkic tribe that lived in the 5th‒10th centuries. in the Baikal region. However, it is disputed by research scientists from Irkutsk and Buryatia. The author attracted the work of foreign scientists (Turkey, Kazakhstan) to the polemics of domestic researchers of the ancient and medieval history of the nomadic peoples of Eurasia. There is only one conclusion: the origin and ethnogenesis of the Sakha in its early stages still requires additional evidence and a critical rethinking of many known facts. The existing controversy and the presence of a significant number of “blank spots” in the problem being presented gives the author the right to express his opinion without imposing it on anyone.
