Description
Summary:When we investigate ancient Turkish culture and belief system, we sometimes encounter some objects and practises called “Töz”, fortunetelling (Fal) and “Yadacılık” even today in Siberia. In this paper, we have tried to dwell on these and what they mean. In addition to this, in Altai, Tuva, Khakass Sakha and general Siberia geography, we sometimes see that shamans name special souls and objects, which they shape, as “tös-töz”, “iyekil” and “emeget”. Eski Türk kültürünü ve buna bağlı olarak inanç sistemini incelediğimizde, bugün de zaman zaman Sibirya bölgesi Türkleri arasında töz, fal ve yadacılık adını verebileceğimiz birtakım nesne ve uygulamalarla karşılaşmaktayız. Bu yazıda bunlar ve ne anlamlar ifade ettiği gibi hususlar üzerinde durmaya çalışacağız. Bununla beraber Altay, Tuva, Hakas, Saha ve umum Sibirya coğrafyasında kamların, bazan bir şekle de soktukları özel ruh veya nesnelere “tös” (töz), “iyekil” veya “emeget” dediklerini görmekteyiz.
