Summary/Abstract: The social structure in Ancient Thrace was centralised and hierarchical. The same social structure was conditioned by the royal doctrine defined by Alexander Fol with the technical notion of “Thracian Orphism.” Forms of Orphic faith are preserved in Bulgarian folk culture, which allow each end to precede a new beginning. Therefore, it may even be necessary to instil the communal interactions in the social structure of antiquity. Inheritance of the characteristics of culture, including the social structure, would be possible provided the participants are not passive, and if the characteristics are borne actively. The ethno-cultural interactions took place in the context of a non-literary intercommunity, thus Veda Slovena reflects the even more complicated process of interactions under conditions that were literary for some and non-literary for others. The problematic situation of the text refers to the nature of the cultural-historical relationship in the crossing of a literary and non-literary environment. This is made possible through the records of Veda Slovena, where the historical processes can be experienced at least diachronously: once in accordance with the norms of oral history and the second time awaiting the consequences of written history.
