STUDIES ON THE ALTAI PEOPLE IN THE HISTORICAL PROCESS: PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
Abstract
Altai, as a toponym, is the name of the mountain ranges in both the Central Asia and the Inner Asia regions of Eurasia. These mountain ranges extend into the borders of today's Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan and even China. The most important feature of this region, where the Altai mountains are located, is that it is a homeland where nomadic peoples have lived together for centuries. In this respect, nomadic peoples played an important role in shaping Eurasia. In this context, Altai is a region where the myths, legends, traditions, epics, customs and cultural elements of nomadic peoples are formed. In this respect, Altai has become a sacred region with its historical events.
