For the first time in ethnography on the basis of numerous resources (field, archival, folklore, literary ones, etc.) the book presents analytical review of the main notions composing the Mordvinian traditional religious and mythological image of the world as a system. It contains about 150 original articles about religious beliefs and rites, a pantheon of pagan deities, other mythological characters, interethnic relations, which are reflected in this important sphere of the people's spiritual life.
