How many knows what words mean "Myth" and « legend»

Myths and legends- oral stories about gods and heroes, which were passed down from generation to generation. They reflected people's ideas about the world around them. Unlike myths, where the main characters were gods, at the heart of legends- the life of ordinary people and real events. But, passing from generation to generation, they were embellished, and the heroes were endowed with extraordinary abilities. (slideshow - pictures of the gods and a story about them)

The Udmurts (self-named - Udmurt, outdated names - Votyaks) are the people, the indigenous population of Udmurtia (496.5 thousand people). The total number as of 1998 is 714.8 thousand. Believers are Orthodox. The Udmurt language belongs to the Permian branch of the Finno-Ugric family of languages. Writing system based on the Russian alphabet.

ESH-TEREK

In ancient times, the great batyr Esh-Terek lived among the Udmurts. In his younger years, he plowed the land, felling wood - he was a simple peasant.

He did not go to wars. And at that time there was an endless enmity with the Tatars and various tushmons, whom no one will remember now.

The villagers wanted Ash-Terek to be toro, but he refused.

I am still young, - he said, - there are people worthy of me. And they have experience, and services to the people, and wisdom, which I have not yet acquired.

But by the age of forty he was nevertheless made a toro.

Ash-Terek began to think about military equipment. He made a bow for himself from a young maple, which he uprooted from the ground. Arrow prepared birch, but the horse for him was never there. Not a single one could withstand the batyr, his legs gave way, his ridge broke. Where could one find a horse to match such a giant?

Esh-Terek came to the bank of the Kama, sits and is sad. We are on foot to fight badly against the swift-footed Tatar horsemen, but we do not know where to get a horse.

The mighty warrior sighed deeply, and the wide Kama was agitated, as if from his sigh. The waves crashed against the shore, and when they retreated, Ash-Terek saw the gray-haired Vumurta. He stood up to his waist in the water near the rocky shore and looked at the gloomy toro.

What are you grieving about, Ash-Terek? Vladyka asked.

This is none of your business, green beard. Get out!

I am Wumurt, the owner of the waters and an old friend of your fathers. I want to serve you. What do you need, speak!

I need a fighting horse. So as not to bend under me and overtake the Tatar horses. Where can you find such a horse, green beard! You only have to scare the girls and tear the nets. Get lost!

You shouldn't revile me, Ash-Terek! There will be a horse to match you. Here's my advice: sit down tonight in the reeds by the river and wait. The Keremet herd will come to the watering hole. The leader is good there - the black stallion. When the horses start drinking water, you and catch the leader. But do not forget the condition: you will bring the first beautiful Tatar woman to me as a gift ...

I agree, if the horse is worth it.

Remember: a horse for you, a beauty for me.

At midnight the herd lay in wait for Ash-Terek and caught the stallion.

The horse turned out to be a dashing horse, he carried Ash-Terek through the fields and meadows, strove to throw it off, stood up on its hind legs, dug the earth with its hooves, grinned its teeth at the rider. Then he resigned himself, seeing that he had found a worthy master. And he became a faithful friend of the famous toro.

Ash-Terek won many victories over the enemies. Rumors about him thundered along the Kama and Votka rivers, in the mountains and villages.

Once he captured the wondrous beauty of a Tatar woman, put her on a horse in front of him and goes to his home. “I will have a wife for everyone to envy,” he thinks, driving along the bank of the Kama.

He was going to swim across the river, but it raged, whirled in whirlpools, as during a flood.

He sees: Vumurt leaned out of the water up to his waist.

Have you forgotten the agreement, glorious Ash-Terek? - asks the water owner. - Give the beauty!

Full of jokes to joke, old devil, - replies Toro. - Why do you, old, a beautiful wife? If you want, I'll bring you a toothless old woman. Here are a couple! Ha-ha-ha ... - Ash-Terek laughed.

Vumurt turned gray with anger and disappeared into the depths of the river. Ash-Terek tears off his horse, grabbed his mane with his hand, and supports the beauty in the saddle with his other hand. So I swam through the raging Kama.

And in the middle, a terrible whirlpool overtook him, whirled, swept over his head ... Neither a dashing horse, nor his own heroic strength helped the young man.

Not in a bloody battle, not in military affairs, he found his death, but in the depths of water, together with a beautiful Tatar woman and a faithful horse.

And the rumor about him does not die.

AX-SAMORUB

A poor peasant lived in one forest edge. He knew little of joy in life, but he never saw happiness in his eyes. His only joy were three sons: Peter, Pavel and Ivan. They were surprisingly different. The eldest, Peter, is tall, stately and proud. The middle son was distinguished by cunning and laziness, and the youngest was so-so: short, simple in character and reliable in work.

When the time came for the poor man to die, he called his sons and said:

I have lived my life in poverty, have made nothing but calluses and sorrow. I have nothing to bequeath to you. Walk around the world, look for your own happiness, maybe you will find it.

So the three brothers went from their home to look for a good life. They walk along the road aimlessly. They look: the mountain is high, the steep slopes are covered with trees. The guys got tired and decided to relax in the shade of an old oak tree.

Just lay down on the grass, they hear: someone is chopping with an ax on the mountain, often so, quickly taps.

We ought to go take a look, maybe we will find work, - says Ivan.

My legs are not official, - replies Peter. - Yes, and this is not for me. I'll look for something to match.

I would go, brother, - says Pavel, - but I was completely exhausted. Let me rest first. - He lay down more comfortably and began to snore.

Water does not flow under the lying stone, - Ivan did not calm down. - I want to find out who works so much fun.

Ivan climbed the mountain. He climbed for a long time, stripped his hands with thorny bushes, broke his bast shoes on driftwood. But he got to the felling. Looks - there is no one, the ax is only working. Yes, he does it so famously that the guy opened his mouth.

Hey, ax, whose will you be? - Ivan was amazed.

And I'm on my own. I serve whoever loves work.

What am I to love if not work! - the poor man was delighted. - Will you go with me?

Why not go, I see you are not a quitter.

Ivan took the ax, put it in a sack and returned to the brothers. And they slept, sat, tearing their eyes.

Well, did you climb the mountain? - laughs the sly Pavel.

Legs have a hard time without a head, - says Peter.

I’m not complaining about my head, ”Ivan replied and didn’t begin to tell the brothers about the wonderful ax. They won't believe it anyway.

Eh, it works great! - Ivan praised. - That would be someone to learn from.

Go, study, if you are not tired, - says Peter. - I'll take a nap. I need a job on the shoulder.

Run away, run away, Ivan, you are young, smart! - Pavel encouraged.

I’ll go. Otherwise I won't sleep until I find out.

Ivan climbed the mountain, exhausted, barely dragging his feet.

He sees: a steel pick carves a stone, turns out hefty lumps. And not a soul around. The pick itself is working.

Hey, kitty, whose are you, who taught you to work like that? - shouted the guy.

And even if it is yours, if you are not afraid of difficulties.

Sissies are afraid of difficulties, but I am a peasant's son, Ivan replies. - Send me a good life to look for.

He took the steel pick and put it in the bag along with the ax. And below, under the tree, the brothers snore, as if thunder rolls across the clear sky. Ivan also lay down to rest, and in the morning a little light is already on his feet.

It's time to get up, lazy people, sleep happiness.

Happiness knocks at the window for the well-fed, but we don't even have a hut, '' replies Peter, stretching.

Happiness is cunning, you can't take it with your bare hands! - Pavel grinned slyly. - Well, what did you see there in the mountains? What have you found besides corns?

Ivan felt offended that his brothers were such bobaks, and he decided for the time being to hide his findings from them.

Let's move on. They wanted to drink, and there was no fontanelle or river around. The swamp has passed, but you will not drink from the rotten bog! The rain fell, but he did not quench his thirst either. The brothers were completely desperate, they almost got drunk from a puddle. Here they look - a trickle is running, clear and transparent. And the water is so tasty that you don't want to leave the stream.

It is necessary to find out the secret of water, - says Ivan, - so that you never suffer from thirst.

You talker, - says Petr, - but does the water have a secret! It flows and flows to itself, as it pleases.

In what will you go to the city? - Pavel joked. - Look, fingers are peeking out of bast shoes.

You can weave other bast shoes, - Ivan replied. - And the case may not turn up a second time.

Well, go, if you don't feel sorry for your legs, but come back for dinner, the brothers decided.

Ivan went on. He pushed his way through the bushes - the ax helped him, he climbed up the hill - the pick helped. So I got to the source of the stream. A stream came out from under a mighty rock.

I am the mistress of water, - said the rock, - I want to, I will completely block it up, and people will die of thirst.

Ivan smiled, did not argue with the stubborn rock, but only noticed the place. I took a pebble from a spring as a keepsake and went to my older brothers.

Well, freak, did you discover the secret of water? - Petr grinned.

And here he is, - Ivan showed a round piece of polished water.

Hey, brother, - says Pavel, - you need to sleep more, or you will go completely crazy. Look what you've come up with! He began to collect pebbles.

This is not a simple pebble, - Ivan objected, - it is key.

The brothers did not understand anything, waved their hand: they say, well, him, an eccentric. What can you take from him if he starts to move. And they went on.

The brothers walked for a long time and finally came to Constantinople. Crowds of people on the streets: ragged, hungry, crippled by wars and troubles.

What's going on here? the brothers ask.

But the people gathered from the king to ask for favors. Fierce hunger tortured us and endless bloody wars, people answer them. - And the king himself does not know what to do. Calls from the people of the craftsman that he could avert trouble. Many have already tried, but they all ended badly.

The brothers looked around: one unfortunate man had no ear, the other had his nose cut off ... It was a bad reward for them that came out for failure.

Eh, we must try too! - Ivan straightened his shoulders. - A person cannot be happy if unhappiness dwells next to him.

You're crazy! - the brothers were frightened. - And you will drag us into trouble, we will leave here without ears and without eyes.

No, dear ones, we must fight together with grief, one by one it will cope with everyone, - Ivan objected.

The royal servants overheard the brothers' conversation and took them to their master. "They boasted, they say, that they can help the common grief."

Well, - says the king, - if you can do it, I will reward, and for the most daring daughter I will give in marriage. If you fail, I'll chop off your noses and ears and send them to the dense forest. And what needs to be done is this: my sages established that the millennial oak is to blame: it blocked the sky from us, hid the sun, overtook the clouds. Cut it down, well done.

They gave the brothers axes, and they began to chop down the eternal oak. Peter will cut down the branch, and in its place twenty new branches will grow. The kid got tired and lay down on the ground exhausted.

Pavel got down to business. And so he was cunning and so. Out of habit and laziness, he tore off his hands in blood, but the oak stands intact.

Ivan took out his labor ax and let's fell the oak. Not only chops, but chops for wood and stacks in woodpiles. Did it lively.

The sky cleared, the sun came out, but life in the country did not improve very much.

Again the king called the brothers to the palace and said:

We have dealt with the oak, which means that you can also cope with the misfortune. But no, I will order your eyes to gouge out. Fools my sages - in vain they ruined the oak. Apparently, there is not a snag in it. Well, yes, you yourself figure it out.

You have called death upon us, Ivan, - whined Peter. He felt sorry for his nose.

You can't think of anything like that to stay whole, - Pavel thought.

We live in dense forests, - Ivan said, - we need to expand the fields. Then there will be more freedom for the peasants, we will live richer.

Is it possible for us to cope with the forest? - Petr grew stiff. “We can't see our ears.

Maybe set it on fire, forest? - said the cunning Pavel.

Why torment goodness! - the younger brother was surprised. - Let's chop wood and logs.

The brothers began to cut down the forest. One tree will be felled, a new one will grow in its place. And Ivan took out a self-ax, and when he began to chop trees to the left and to the right - in an instant he got rid of the thicket. Then the forest prayed: “Don't ruin me, Ivan, people will have a bad time without the forest. Where will they get the wood, where will they hide from the heat? And fields for dry wind will be exposed, defenseless rivers will dry up ... "

Look you! - Ivan admired. - But the forest speaks, we will really be lost without it.

The brothers spared the forest. And the felled glades were used for arable land. They began to uproot the stumps, to raise the virgin soil.

Then the king again called the brothers into the palace. And he himself has already begun to be afraid of them, he sees: great power is in their hands.

You have freed the fields, women laborers, and you are entitled to a reward, ”said the king. “What's the use of the fields if the drought is coming. The wells in the country were being raised. People have nowhere to get drunk, much less a beast. The turmoil is great. The people are dissatisfied with my rule. It is necessary to dig deep wells. Yes, such that they never run dry. Obey this command - I will make you gilded; if you do not, I will rot in the pit.

The brothers listened to the king and hung their heads.

Yours, Ivan, is to blame for everything, they say. - We were unable to find a job for ourselves. We cannot get to the deep water for all people and animals to have enough. Let's only dig a hole for ourselves.

And the secret of the stream, - Ivan laughs, - have they forgotten, or what? - And he took a smooth round from his pocket. - Here it is, the secret of water. Let's go to the stream and ask him to quench people's thirst.

There is good water in that stream, the brothers say, but it’s only enough for one royal palace.

Do not grieve, there is enough for everyone.

The brothers came to the formidable rock, bowed to the spring. And as the rock hums: “I will not give you more water. I am the mistress, I do what I want. If I want to, I will kill you all. "

Come on, pick, show us what you can do. Smash, scatter the avaricious rock, - exclaimed the younger brother, - free the deep river from eternal captivity.

As the pick began to hammer, crumble the impregnable rock, only rubble and sparks fell. And when, at last, a stone block collapsed - a stormy stream broke free, a full-flowing river flowed. Izh - her brothers named her.

The Izh-river watered people, animals, and the fields around. Then the brothers went along with other workers to receive old debts from the king. The king of such an unheard-of strength was frightened and fled. Since then, honest labor has reigned in that land. And the brothers found themselves on the shoulder.

UDMURT MYTHOLOGY

The myths of the Udmurts (or Votyaks), a people related to the Komi, are less affected by Christian mythology. But they were reflected in the views of neighboring Turkic-speaking peoples and Islam (this is especially true of the southern Udmurts). So, the name of the sacred grove and the name of the evil spirit, the enemy of the good god among the Udmurts - Keremet - goes back to the name of the spirits among the Tatars and Chuvashes, which, in turn, is borrowed from the Muslim vocabulary; his other name - Shaitan - is directly borrowed from Muslim mythology, where Satan is called so.
