This monograph is dedicated to the most archaic aspect of the traditional ideology of Karachai and Balkar peoples, their exorcism and traditional conjurations, that reflect functioning of the basic myths and religeous worship. The numerical symbolism of conjurations and its role in ritual life are studied for the first time in the world's science.
