    The article highlights the problem of demand for divination rituals in modern Korean society. People of all nations have ever had a desire to know about the future, which gave rise to various forms of predictions that persist to this day. However, today this is especially actual for the Republic of Korea, where divination has existed since ancient times as a tradition and now plays an important role in the lives of most Koreans.

    Author:
    Olga B. Stepanova
    Work direction:
    Ethnic and Ethno-Cultural Processes in Modern Society
    Abstract:
    The article is devoted to the most famous ancient sanctuary of the northern Selkups – Shaman Mountain Lozyl-lakka on Lozyl-to Lake. The purpose of the study is to combine the information available about it in the scientific literature and in the author's field archive and to find out what this object of the sacred landscape is. The research methods were description, semantic analysis and fieldwork. The result of the study was the conclusion that Lozyl-lakka is a family sanctuary, where sacrifices were made to the spirits-masters of the ancestral fishing grounds, on which the success of members of the clan in the trade "depended". The memory of the sanctuary has survived to this day due to its location in a remarkable natural place. It was also found that the sacred mountain serves as an indicator of the state of the modern ethnic identity of the Selkups. It is characterized by the preservation of faith in spirits and strict adherence to a number of traditions that this belief dictates, therefore, the process of transformation of traditional culture into new modern forms among the Selkups, which is ongoing among the northern peoples today, is hampered by the vitality of some elements of this very traditional culture. A separate comprehensive study of the Lozyl-Lakka sanctuary, including the standpoint of the attitude of modern Selkups, constitutes the scientific novelty of the study. The publication of summary data on the sanctuary preserves it as part of the cultural heritage for future generations of Selkups and replenishes the data bank of ethnographic science.

The classification of the belt is based on such characteristics as the technic of execution, origin, application and symbolism.

Without pretending to be a full disclosure of the topic, the author presents a summary of data obtained and collected. Results of the study. Putting on traditional belts only on big (winter) holidays along with national clothes, Selkups practically do not make new belts nowadays.

    Abstract:
    This article examines the essence and existence of traditional historical roots of culture, which have their expression in various forms, for example, in holidays.

It reflects the whole system of aesthetic, moral, ethical, religious criteria of society accumulated in the historical run of time.

The unique cultural image of each era is reflected in the festive sphere, representing a set of values, norms, cultural patterns of the state.
