First Capitals of Armenia and Georgia: Armawir and Armazi (Problems of Early Ethnic Associations)
First Capitals of Armenia and Georgia: Armawir and Armazi (Problems of Early Ethnic Associations) Armen Petrosyan Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography, Yerevan The foundation legends of the first capitals of Armenia and Georgia – Armawir and Armazi – have several common features. A specific cult of the moon god is attested in both cities in the triadic temples along with the supreme thunder god and the sun god. The names of Armawir and Armazi may be associated with the Anatolian Arma- ‘moon (god).’ The Armenian ethnonym (exonym) Armen may also be derived from the same stem. The sacred character of cultic localities is extremely enduring. The cults were changed, but the localities kept their sacred character for millennia. At the transition to a new religious system the new cults were often simply imposed on the old ones (e.g., the old temple was renamed after a new deity, or the new temple was built on the site or near the ruins of the old one). The new deities inherited the characteristics of the old ones, or, one may say, the old cults were simply renamed, which could have been accompanied by some changes of the cult practices. Evidently, in the new system more or less comparable images were chosen to replace the old ones: similarity of functions, rituals, names, concurrence of days of cult, etc (Petrosyan 2006: 4 f.; Petrosyan 2007a: 175).1 On the other hand, in the course of religious changes, old gods often descend to the lower level of epic heroes. Thus, the heroes of the Armenian ethnogonic legends and the epic “Daredevils of Sasun” are derived from ancient local gods: e.g., Sanasar, who obtains the 1For numerous examples of preservation of pre-Urartian and Urartian holy places in medieval Armenia, see, e.g., Hmayakyan and Sanamyan 2001). -
Drastic Demographic Events Triggered the Uralic Spread to Appear in Diachronica
Drastic demographic events triggered the Uralic spread To appear in Diachronica Riho Grünthal (University of Helsinki) Volker Heyd (University of Helsinki) Sampsa Holopainen (University of Helsinki) Juha Janhunen (University of Helsinki) Olesya Khanina (Institute of Linguistics, Russian Academy of Sciences) Matti Miestamo (University of Helsinki) Johanna Nichols (University of California, Berkeley; University of Helsinki; Higher School of Economics, Moscow) Janne Saarikivi (University of Helsinki) Kaius Sinnemäki (University of Helsinki) Abstract: The widespread Uralic family offers several advantages for tracing prehistory: a firm absolute chronological anchor point in an ancient contact episode with well-dated Indo-Iranian; other points of intersection or diagnostic non-intersection with early Indo-European (the Late PIE-speaking Yamnaya culture of the western steppe, the Afanasievo culture of the upper Yenisei, and the Fatyanovo culture of the middle Volga); lexical and morphological reconstruction sufficient to establish critical absences of sharings and contacts. We add information on climate, linguistic geography, typology, and cognate frequency distributions to reconstruct the Uralic origin and spread. We argue that the Uralic homeland was east of the Urals and initially out of contact with Indo-European. The spread was rapid and without widespread shared substratal effects. We reconstruct its cause as the interconnected reactions of early Uralic and Indo-European populations to a catastrophic climate change episode and interregionalization opportunities which advantaged riverine hunter-fishers over herders.

Correlation of the Burushaski Pronominal System with Indo-European and Phonological and Grammatical Evidence for a Genetic Relationship
Correlation of the Burushaski Pronominal System with Indo-European and Phonological and Grammatical Evidence for a Genetic Relationship Ilija Çasule Macquarie University The Burushaski personal and demonstrative pronominal system is correlated in its entirety with Indo-European. This close correlation, together with the extensive grammatical correspondences in the nominal and verbal systems (given as an addendum), advances significantly the hypothesis of the genetic affiliation of Burushaski with Indo-European. The article includes a comprehensive discussion of the Burushaski-Indo-European phonological and lexical correspondences. It proposes that Burushaski is an Indo- European language which at some stage of its development was in contact with an agglutinative system. 1. Introduction 1.1. Brief overview of sources and previous studies Being a language with undetermined genetic affiliation, Burushaski has attracted considerable interest, especially in the last twenty years, but also earlier. There have been many attempts to relate it to languages as diverse as Basque, Nubian, Dravidian, various Caucasic as well as Yeniseian languages, Sino-Tibetan and Sumerian (for a brief overview, see Bashir 2000:1-3). These endeavors have failed mostly because of unsystematic or inconsistent correspondences, incorrect internal reconstruction, excessive semantic latitude and incoherent semantic fields, root etymologizing and especially lack of grammatical and derivational evidence. Burushaski is spoken by around 90,000 people (Berger 1990:567) in the Karakoram area in North-West Pakistan at the junction of three linguistic families — the Indo- European (Indo-Aryan and Iranian), the Sino-Tibetan and the Turkic. Its dialectal differentiation is minor. There are Volume 40, Number 1 & 2, Spring/Summer 2012 60 Ilija Çasule three very closely related dialects: Hunza and Nager with minimal differences, and the Yasin dialect, which exhibits differential traits, but is still mutually intelligible with the former two. -

Thus, studies of language phylogenies and their correlations with genetic phylogenies can enrich our understanding of human prehistory, while insights gained from genetic studies of past population contact can help shed light on the processes underlying language contact and change. -

Jahrhundert und Zentralasiens im 18./19. Jahrhundert erhielt das Zarenreich Kontrolle über alte Kulturräume, die es im Zuge der Koloniali- sierung zu assimilieren versuchte. Diese Versuche erfolgten nicht Herausgegeben von Zaur Gasimov zuletzt mittels der Sprachpolitik. Russisch sollte im Bildungs- und Behördenwesen im gesamten Imperium Verbreitung finden, andere Sprachen sollten verdrängt werden. Diese Russifizierung lässt sich Schrift und Wort um Kampf von einer kurzen Phase der »Verwurzelung« unter Lenin bis weit ins 20. Jahrhundert nachverfolgen. Erst im Zuge der Perestrojka wurde die sowjetische Sprachpolitik öffentlich kritisiert: Die einzelnen Republiken konnten durch neue Sprachgesetze ein Aussterben der lokalen Sprachen verhindern.

The Ket Language
Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 4 (2018 11) 654-662 ~ ~ ~ УДК 811.553 The Ket Language Alexandra A. Sitnikova* Siberian Federal University 79 Svobodny, Krasnoyarsk, 660041, Russia Received 06.03.2018, received in revised form 11.04.2018, accepted 14.04.2018 This article is of the applied research nature, which was carried out within the framework of the cultural project on preserving the culture of the Krasnoyarsk Krai indigenous peoples by creating the children’s literature in these peoples’ languages. The article presents the key characteristics of the Ket language and culture: the place of the Kets’ residence, the issue of ethnogenesis, the Kets’ art, shamanism, totem beliefs and other aspects. The main part of the article analyzes the available linguistic materials about the Ket language and describes the corpus of texts in the Ket language that are currently available to the public. Particular emphasis is given to the value of digitizing the linguistic data on the Ket language in the context of modern culture virtualization and need for interdisciplinary researches of the Ket language (linguistics and cultural studies). The article hypothesizes that the linguistic data on the Ket language, which were accumulated during the 20th – the beginning of the 21st centuries, can be used as the basis for further culturological research of the key concepts of the Ket culture (the “bear”, for example). They will allow to reconstruct the picture of the world in the culture of the indigenous peoples of the Siberian North. They will also result in a social design of the methods for the Kets’ authentic culture effective preservation and development by publishing the children’s literature in the Ket language for teaching the native Kets their language from pre-school age. -

Specific Character of Modern Interethnic Relations in Krasnoyarsk Territory As Per Associative Experiment
Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 11 (2011 4) 1553-1576 ~ ~ ~ УДК 316.622 Specific Character of Modern Interethnic Relations in Krasnoyarsk Territory as Per Associative Experiment Galina V. Kivkutsan* Siberian Federal University 79 Svobodny, Krasnoyarsk, 660041 Russia 1 Received 15.03.2011, received in revised form 17.06.2011, accepted 10.10.2011 Ethnocultural space of Krasnoyarsk territory is an urgent subject for research nowadays. According to the criteria of conflict, ethnology and sociology theory Krasnoyarsk territory has been both a centre of strained interethnic relations and a specific interethnic conglomerate. Thus, the study of ethnicity phenomenon in Krasnoyarsk territory is one of the most important tasks of applied cultural research. The research objectives are to detect an interethnic relations dominant type on the basis of specificity of ethnocultural space of Krasnoyarsk territory (while applying associative experiment method) and to model possible ways of conflict settlement. The research has resulted in the relevant conclusion that interethnic relations in the territory have a set of features peculiar to this territory. That has led to a hypothesis about a possible interethnic conflicts settlement in case of their threat. The research uniqueness is stated through both a particular practical orientation of the research and experimental application of new forms of the developed methods into the sphere of cultural research. A considerable attention has been paid to a complex approach to a definite problem. Associative experiment is considered to be the most effective method of detection and research of such a cultural phenomenon as ethnic stereotype. It is proved by the specificity of the method initially applied in psychology.
