Koryak Texts (1917)

Koryak Texts is a book written by Waldemar Bogoras in 1917. It is a collection of texts and stories from the Koryak people, who are indigenous to the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia. The book is divided into two parts: the first part contains myths, legends, and folktales, while the second part is a collection of personal narratives and historical accounts. The Koryak Texts offer a rare glimpse into the culture and traditions of the Koryak people, including their beliefs about the natural world, their social structure, and their relationship with neighboring tribes. The book is also notable for its detailed descriptions of Koryak language and grammar, making it an important resource for linguists and anthropologists studying the region. Overall, Koryak Texts is a valuable contribution to the field of anthropology and a fascinating read for anyone interested in indigenous cultures and folklore.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
