The fact that tribal relations are fixed, the formation of ethnic communities in the late period, the weakness of Islamic influence, the lack of relations with other Turkic peoples, and other factors have led to the preservation of archaic features in the tongues of Siberian Turks, as well as the protection of the old Shamanist traditions.

Accordingly, Eliade defines "shamanism" as a primitive escape technique, an ecstasy. Shamanism is not only a religion but also a religious character when it comes to Altai shamanism because Southern Siberian Turks have synthesizes Shamanism and the paradise religion of God originating from the Köktürk.

Those who have shamanic beliefs envision these spirits as human beings. There are limited written sources that can help research the ancient beliefs of the Turks. So epics, which are oral literary products, provide us with the greatest help. When comparing Turkish epics with other Turkish epics, it is seen that the hero made more frequent trips to the sky and underground realms. The subjects are almost similar. As the hero is in Shamanist belief, the adventure of the underworld, where the terrible creatures lived, the evil world is thrown away. In all Turkish epics, women have an important place. In Turkish epics woman has become a divine entity. According to Shamanists, the whole world is full of souls. Mountains, lakes, rivers ("ground - water") are always living things. This is an animistic influence from the ancient primitive periods.Seher KARADAĞFırat UniversityarticleshamanismshamanepicsiberiaturksSocial SciencesHSocial sciences (General)H1-99DEENFRTRJournal of Academic Social Science Studies , Vol 11, Iss 73, Pp 449-464 (2019)
