Читать книгу Russia the formation of the state in the 9th century Veneds and the severjans (northerners), part of the Huns, which became the basis of a new community - Сергей Соловьёв - Страница 14

The location of the ancestral home of the Indo-Europeans has always been a stumbling block for the scientific community and I would like to give a number of arguments for the primary habitat in the region of Obi-Yamal, Pechora, Arkhangelsk and Vologda regions and the islands of Novaya Zemlya. What makes it possible to come up with such an unconditional opinion? This geographical reference to this area is due to the myths and legends about Ganesh, Skanda, Indrik-beast. Tartar (ancient Greek Τάρταρος), in ancient Greek mythology – the deepest abyss located under the kingdom of Hades (representation, starting from Hesiod, where, after titanomachy, Zeus overthrew Kronos and the titans and where they were guarded by the hundred-handed giants of Hecatoncheira, the children of Uranus. the Cyclops are imprisoned. This is a dark abyss, which is as far from the surface of the earth as the sky is from the earth: according to Hesiod, a copper anvil would fly from the surface of the earth to Tartarus in nine days. Tartarus was surrounded by a triple layer of darkness of the god Erebus and copper walls with the copper gates of the god Poseidon. According to Hesiod, he arose after Chaos and Gaia. According to Epimenides, he was born from Aerus and Nyukta. According to other authors, as the personification of this abyss, Tartarus was the son of Ether and Gaia. From Tartarus Gaia gave birth to the monstrous Typhon and Echidna. Tartarus is mentioned by Homer (Il. VIII, 13According to the testimony of ancient Greek authors, Tartarus was in the North. Later, the authors began to consider Tartarus the most remote place in Hades. e century the most abandoned and remote corners of the earth began to be called tartar. In late antiquity, Tartarus was represented as a space of dense cold and darkness. Later, in European cartography, due to contamination, Tartarus was associated with Tartaria – northern Asia. The origin of the name of the god is not exactly clear; in any case, it was associated with the ancient Greek ἀϊδής “invisible”, ἀΐδιος “eternal”, ἀϊδνός “gloomy”, αἰδοῖος “venerable, compassionate”; αἰδώς, “awe, reverence”, but also “mercy”; ἀΐδηλος “making it invisible”, that is “destructive”, or “invisible, unknown, mysterious, gloomy”. the rivers of Hades, the most famous are Styx, Cocytus and Phlegeton, a flaming river. Hell and Tartarus are the land of the ancestors of the Huns (Hans), lands in the far North, from Yamal to Altai, the basin of the oil-bearing Ob river.

Giants, or Gants, that is, Huns-Hans, who also came from the Phlegrean fields, in myths they were described as opponents of the Olympic gods, and the Phlegrian fields are called their homeland.

In Chinese sources (Bei Shi and others), the state (and, accordingly, the people) of Yada is noted, attributed to the Xiyu region. Chinese historians found it difficult to indicate their origin; it was assumed that they were descendants of Yuezhi or Gaoju. They lived west of Khotan and south of the Altai spurs. The capital is the city of Badiyan, only 10 li in a circle. There is a palace and Buddhist stupas and pagodas adorned with gold. And in these sources the Hephthalite and Sarmatian Huns are called so. I.e. the Chinese call their land ADOM.

This geographical reference to this area is due to the myths and legends about Ganesh, Skanda, Indrik-beast. No one can argue that this is the closest place to the European part of the continent, where the remains of mammoths are massively found, and one of the most famous is Yamal, and the most famous find is the Yamal mammoth Masha. Often in the works of oral folklore, the “homeland” of the Indrik-beast is called – the Indian land full of wonders – India, which is not accidental, but there were several Indies in the history of migration of Indo-Europeans, and one was later described by Herodotus in the Caucasus as Sindika, an area in the Kuban region…

Here, as you can see, Tarja-reka is also mentioned, as the place of the ancestral home of the Indo-Europeans, which remained with the Hellenes in the form of Tartarus, as one of the places the land of ancestors.. Researchers have established an undoubted connection between the Indrik beast and the Vedic and Hindu deities Indra, and his weapon is the vajra and the vahana (carrier) is the elephant Aivarat, which also brings him closer to Ganesha (at birth Vinayak, then acquired the name Ganesha, Ganapati, Ganapati means the leader of the divine army of Shiva – ganas). Phlegrian fields also resemble Yamal and the Ob basin, where gas emissions are frequent and lead to explosions and burning of the soil. This can also explain the “milk rivers” and “jelly” banks. When condensation gets into the water. water becomes muna and resembles milk, and oil, mixing with the earth, turns it into jelly. And the slightest carelessness leads to inflammation, and here truly the hellish place is obtained. The climate here, to put it mildly, is not hot, that is, corresponds to the description of Hel of Scandinavia and Hell and Tartarus of Greece, damp, humid and cold, but the earth burns underfoot, and the water of the rivers is often poisonous from oil and gas, like the Styx of Hellas.

That is, the migration of Indo-Aryans from the coast of the Arctic Ocean is proved by the toponymy of places, the location of mammoth burial grounds in that region, and the emergence of myths about Ganesha, Apollo and Indrik-Zver, in the regions of the Ob river basin, and the present Arkhangelsk, Vologda regions and the Komi Republic, and Khanty-Mansiysk district, where there are cases of findings of mammoth remains. An additional argument in favor of the migration of Indo-Aryans from the Ob is the “Guestrovskaya Ode”, a poem published in Germany, the principality of Mecklenburg for the wedding, written by an unknown author specifically for the wedding in 1716 of Karl Leopold of Mecklenburg and Ekaterina Ioannovna, niece of Emperor Peter I, daughter of Tsar Ivan V Aleksey Tsarina Praskovya Feodorovna Saltykova, the elder sister of Empress Anna Ivanovna. This work describes the migration of the emboldened tribe from the Ob River to present-day Germany. Also, numerous finds of the most valuable artifacts in the Yamal region and the mouth of the Ob river, as well as in the area of the river. Kama of a later time, the so-called “Zakamsky silver”, which most likely were offerings from Iran, Byzantium to the sanctuaries of the Far North, described by Herodotus, who considers these places to be associated with the veneration of Apollo, and Herodotus gives evidence of Aristeus, who visited the Far North in execution vows. That is, the tradition, memories of the ancestral home, already at a later time turned out to be so strong that offerings to the gods to the ancestral home of the Indo-Europeans were sent from Iran and Greece, for which there is material evidence, these are the treasures of Yamal (as well as burials and numerous finds of people of the European type) and Zakamsk treasures. And probably, this area can be identified with Hyperborea of Ancient Greece, as the place of origin of a number of Indo-Aryan peoples.

Nobody can argue that this is the closest place to the European part of the continent, where the remains of mammoths are massively found, and one of the most famous is Yamal, and the most famous find is the Yamal mammoth Masha [Tikhonov A. N., Brave V. M. Mamontenok from Yamal // Nature. – 1989. – No. 6. – P. 46—47.]

So. What kind of Indrik is this beast, and what evidence of him remains? In the Russian apocrypha, especially in the numerous versions of The Spiritual Verse on the Pigeon Book, the name of this beast appears in different forms: Indrok, Indra, Kondryk, Beloyandrik, Vyndrik, Unicorn, Unicorn and Unicorn. The name variations can be summarized in two:

“Pigeon Book”

In different lists of the Pigeon Book verse there are different features in the image of Indrik, but in all he is called “the father of all beasts.” He walks through the underground, “misses rivers and wells, or lives on Tabor-mountain (that is, the Mountain of Light,”; “when he turns, all the animals worship him.” Or he lives on the Holy Mountain, eats and drinks from the Blue Sea, does not hurt anyone. Or he walks with a horn through the dungeon, like “the sun through the skies.” “The Dove Book” is a collection of East Slavic folk spiritual verses of the late 15th – early 16th centuries, the questions and answers of which provide information about the origin of the world. The book united both Christian and pagan motives. The book was preserved thanks to the tragedy of the schism in Orthodoxy, and was preserved among the Old Believers. According to Russian folklore, Indrik is endowed with the features of the master of the water element, springs and wells, and acts as an enemy of the snake.

Indrik, as the master of the water element, is close to the mythical bird Sirin – the symbol of water and fertility. Images of Indrik are often combined with “braid”, which in ancient times meant water. Often in the works of oral folklore, the “homeland” of the Indrik-beast is called – the Indian land full of wonders – India, which is not accidental, but there were several Indies in the history of migration of Indo-Europeans, and one was later described by Herodotus in the Caucasus as Sindika, an area in the Kuban region…

Here, as you can see, Tarja-river is also mentioned as the place of the ancestral home of the Indo-Europeans, which remained with the Hellenes in the form of Tartarus, as one of the places of the land of their ancestors.. Researchers have established an undoubted connection between the Indrik beast and the Vedic and Hindu deities Indra, and his weapon is the Vajra, vahana bearer) is the elephant Airavata, which also brings him closer to Ganesha, and on whose behalf the name of the country – India, and the sacred river – Indus, and the people – Indians, and religion – Hinduism are formed. And in the Russian North there are still many names of rivers with the most ancient common Indo-European root “ind”. For example, the Indiga River is the river basins between the Pechora and Mezen rivers, the river flows into the Barents Sea, and one of the Indiga tributaries is the VYREY river (and it is known that Iriy-Vyri is the name of the Kingdom of Heaven in Slavic myths). from Yamal, west of the Ob, in the same administrative district. It is also interesting that there are places in the Russian North with the sacred name “Ida”. Scientists suggest that in the era of the ancient Indo-European ethnocultural community, Indra was the single supreme god of the Indo-Europeans. After the disintegration of the Indo-European conglomerate of tribes and the departure of the Aryans from the North to the Indian subcontinent, in the memory of the Proto-Slavs, and later the Russians, one of the many incarnations of Indra – “The King of Beasts”, “Mother of all beasts” was preserved. “A brief description of the Ostyatsky people” by Novitsky says: “some who want to confirm the narrated for the reliable, so His likeness is described: with a height of three arshins, almost an arshin length, his legs are like those of a bear, his horns, folded crosswise, he wears on himself, and when he digs caves, then he bends and stretches like a crawling snake. Some, contradicting this, argue that these bones belong to unicorns or some other beasts of the sea, during the flood of Noah, they were applied and dried up on the earth by water, but by antiquity they went into the earth.

“And the beast Indrik appeared. And the beast Indrik became a father to all beasts, a beast to all beasts. The beast Indrik itself is blue, and his eyes are golden. And maybe even the beast Indrik turns into a mighty blue warrior. His eyes are golden, he glows with a blue radiance of inner light, he holds a stone club in his hands, and he is dressed in stone armor. And so it is huge, higher than the mountains it is underground. The beast Indrik, the giant underground warrior, rides through the underworld in a stone chariot (that is, similar in skin color to Krishna and Yama (blue skin))

The wheels of that chariot are huge stone millstones, and monstrous black stone dogs, giant dogs, are harnessed to that chariot. And the eyes of those dogs burn like the fires of a thousand bonfires. And those dogs roar like a thousand thunders. And those dogs breathe fire and smoke. The beast Indrik, the giant underground warrior, rides through the underground world in his chariot. And he fights with lizards and underground dragons. And the Underground Lizard crawls away from him into his inferno. And he closes his inferno on the brass door.”

Throughout the Russian North and even farther – in Manchuria and China – legends about a strange creature of unprecedented growth called the indrik-beast are widespread. It is supposedly the size of an elephant and is endowed with horns that serve as a digging device. Descriptions of a giant mole named ting-shu or in-shu (“the mouse that hides”) we find in ancient Chinese books. Despite the hyperbolic dimensions of the incredible beast, it should be recognized that folk art is by no means a baseless fantasy. Life and real observations gave the narrators quite reliable material for this legend.

As said, this creature lives in the earth. It digs passages and tunnels with a horn and thereby opens keys, cleans springs and fills lakes and rivers with water. And if the indrik-beast under the ground makes noise, “the whole Universe will shake.” True, this is not a predatory beast, but a completely peaceful giant: “he does not hurt anyone,” apparently feeds on plants or what he finds underground. Well, it is quite possible that in this case we are talking about real mammoths, whose tusks and frozen carcasses are often found in Siberia. Apparently, both the legendary giant mole Tin-Shu, and Fan-Shu, and the Indrik-beast, and the Finnish Mamut are one and the same creature. The modern Russian name “mammoth” just comes from the old Russian word “mamut”. The Russians borrowed it from the Finnish tribes inhabiting European Russia. In many Finnish dialects, “ma” means “earth”, and “mut” means “mole” in Finnish, that is, mamut is an earthen mole.

“The mountain gave birth to a mouse” is a famous saying in ancient Greece and Rome. What does it mean? Apollo Sminthias Sminfey (Σμινθεύς), in Greek myth-making, the epithet of the god Apollo in the northwest of Asia Minor in Troas. The very name Sminfei is derived from the word αμίνθος, which meant a mouse among the Cretans. In this regard, the mouse was an attribute of the prophetic god Apollo, hence its name ζωον μαντικώτερον (prophetic animal). One of the months (Σμίνθειον) was named after Sminfei; in addition, ancient Greek authors mention the Rhodes festival of Sminfey. Pisarevsky writes that “The mouse in the cult of Apollo with Asclepius corresponds to the mole in the cult of Rudra with Ganesha” [Pisarevsky p.5] (The legend that only a mouse is afraid of an elephant). That is, the migration of Indo-Aryans from the coast of the Arctic Ocean is proved by toponymy of places, the location of mammoth burial grounds in that region, and the emergence of myths about Ganesha, Apollo and Indrik-Zver, in the regions of the Ob river basin, and the present Arkhangelsk, Vologda regions and the Komi Republic, and Khanty-Mansiysk district, where there are cases of findings of mammoth remains. Also, numerous finds of the most valuable artifacts in the Yamal region and the mouth of the Ob river, as well as in the area of the river. Kama of a later time, the so-called “Zakamsky silver”, which most likely were donations from Iran, Byzantium to the sanctuaries of the Far North, described by Herodotus, who considers these places to be associated with the veneration of Apollo, and Herodotus gives evidence of Aristeus, who visited the Far North in execution vows. That is, the tradition, memories of the ancestral home, already at a later time turned out to be so strong that offerings to the gods to the ancestral home of the Indo-Europeans were sent from Iran and Greece, for which there is material evidence, these are the treasures of Yamal and the Zakamsk treasures.
