REPRESENTATION OF CULTURAL UNIVERSALS IN IDENTITY OF THE SAKHA / YAKUTS

Summary/Abstract: In this article, attention is drawn to the universals of culture "space" and "time" to explore how they are represented in the identity of the Sakha / Yakuts. The basic idea is that the "space" and "time" are the kind of frame of reference through which a person builds not only a conceptual-thinking way of understanding the objects and phenomena of the world, but also includes its’ own spiritual and practical activities. On the example of the representation of universals "space" and "time" there have been exposed the peculiarities of traditional culture, extending the core of identity of the Sakha people.
