The authors examine the early forms of Khakass and Tuvninian religious beliefs, in which animistic world view, magical ways of the protection of happiness, as well as traditional understanding of human birth, life and death are elucidated. Extensive field and ethnographical materials allow the authors to bring to light many common layers in the religious-ritual cultures of the Khakass and Tuvinians.
