The author reviews the monograph of A.I. Gogolev “The Origin of the Sakha people and their traditional culture” (2018), the study of the ethnogenesis of the Yakut people (native name — Sakha) and the origins of their material and spiritual culture. For the sources, the author of the book used archaeological, ethnographic, linguistic and historical data of the entire Central Asia and Far Eastern area, as well as the adjacent and remote areas. A.I. Gogolev studied particularly carefully the area of Central Lena, because that area has become ethnic forming for the people of Sakha. The author discovered the Scythian-Siberian, ancient Altai and Hunnic roots of the Sakha culture, traced the formation of its basis under the infl uence of ancient and medieval Turkic tribes of Southern Siberia, Central Asia and the Baikal region. In the latter respect, A.I. Gogolev paid special attention to the historical and cultural ties of the Yakuts with the Turkic-speaking peoples of Southern Siberia and the Buryats. The researchers face the new challenges: to achieve fi nal clarity on the question who were ethnically the indigenous aborigines of the Middle Lena, to determine what impact on the spiritual and material culture of the Yakuts had the oldest religion — Tengrism, and to study more thoroughly the origins of the writing of the Sakha people.

The article deals with the ethnic specificity of biblical legends about the flood and the Tower of Babel in the folklore of the Turkic peoples of Southern Siberia (the Altai, Tuva, Khakassia and Shor). These folk legends, rooted in early Christianity, confirm the cultural and historical contacts between the peoples of Central Asia and peoples holding Christian beliefs. The subjects of the legends, associated with the biblical idea of the creation of the world and man and the flood, found their way into Siberia even before the Russians initiated the process of Christianization in the region from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries. This assertion is confirmed not only by the specific features of folk legends under discussion, but also by historical data on the influence of Manichaeism and Nestorianism on the culture of the Central Asian peoples, including on the Turkic peoples of Siberia. The persistence of these legends can be attributed to the fact that their plots are often adapted to local realities, concepts, myths, and events. In the construction of these narratives, use is made of national mythological terminology and conceptual systems. The saturation of the folk legends with local mythology and local beliefs in the Siberian context may be a contributing factor to their ongoing existence as a part of the folklore. The appropriation of the contents of biblical legends by the peoples of Siberia also shows the seriousness of their adoption of Christian ideas in the distant past.

The article discusses a small, but rather rich in content, collection of objects from the Department of Ethnography of the Peoples of the Caucasus, Central Asia and Kazakhstan of the Russian Ethnographic Museum for Nogai Culture of the North-East Caucasus (Karanogais), which was collected at the beginning of the last century by K.A. Inostrantzev. This collection under stock number 333 is the very first museum collection on traditional Nogai culture. The collection fully demonstrates the features of the traditional culture and art of the people. It contains unique materials that have long been lost in the environment of everyday life and do not have originals in the central and regional museums of the country and in private collections. These are the interior items of the yurt, items of male and female costume, wedding arba, wedding yurt and felt decorations of the wedding yurt of the late XIX - early XX centuries. The main objective of the study is to consider museum objects of the collection 333 as objects of historical and cultural heritage, to identify and study them as an independent scientific source. This formulation of the problem was primarily due to modern trends, when in the era of digital computer technology in the humanities, interest in the latest research practices is growing. The study of objects of traditional culture using modern techniques would allow to reveal already seemingly sufficiently studied material from a new point of view. In this sense, museum collections play a significant role and sometimes are the only source for studying objects of traditional material culture and art of some peoples. And therefore, the allocation of the specifics of the information resource of museum material for its further analysis is one of the urgent tasks today, both in historical disciplines and in the field of related sciences. As part of this study, a detailed analysis of museum objects was carried out, the attribution of things was compiled, a classification was created.

The publication analyzes a collection of photographs by Grigory Ivanovich Ivanov (1876-1930), which is kept in the Altai State Museum of Local Lore in the city of Barnaul. The photographs were taken by Ivanov in 1913 during his expedition to the remote areas of Gornaya Shoria. The introduction of these photographs into scientific circulation became possible only at the end of the 20th century. The photographs show the traditional culture of the indigenous inhabitants of this area - the Shors, who at the time of Ivanov's expedition still retained the traditional features of their ethnic culture. The photographs show the traditional material culture of the Shors, their traditional means of transportation and transport. The most developed among the Shors at that time were winter means of transportation and transport (skis, sledges, scraps), which ensured hunting. Water vehicles (boats, rafts, ferries), which made it possible to move people and goods along mountain rivers were equally important. In the early 20th century horses were used by the Shors for horseback riding, as well as for horse and goose transport of goods. The horse equipment used in this case was distinguished by great archaism. In remote mountainous areas, the local population also used archaic methods of transporting goods by hand. However, the photographs also show more developed forms of vehicles and transport, which the population of Gornaya Shoria began to use in the early 20th century under the influence of the Russian population.

Sedelnikovaea baicalensis, the Siberian-Central Asian lichen species, is recorded for the first time for Europe. Based on all the known localities, including those first-time reported from Baikal Siberia, the peculiarities of the ecology and distribution of this species are discussed, the map of its distribution is provided. It is concluded that the species was erroneously considered earlier as a Central Asian endemic. The center of the present range of this lichen is the steppes of Southern Siberia and Mongolia. Assumptions are made that S. baicalensis is relatively young (Paleogene-Neogene) species otherwise it would have a vast range extending beyond Asia, and also that the Yakut locations of this species indicate that in the Pleistocene its range was wider and covered a significant part of the Northeastern Siberia but later underwent regression. Based on the fact that in the mountains of Central Asia the species is found only in the upper mountain belts, it is proposed to characterize it as «cryo-arid xerophyte» in contrast to «arid xerophytes». A conclusion is made that the presence of extensive disjunctions of S. baicalensis range between the Southern Pre-Urals and the Altai-Sayan Mountains or the Mountains of Central Asia is unlikely; the lichen is most likely to occur in the Urals and most of Kazakhstan.

Stock investment is important for financial development in a company. Moreover, the stock price displayed by the company can be known by the people and the local economy because the company has gone public on the Indonesia Economic Exchange (IDX) at www.idx.co.id. There are several fundamental factors that influence the stock market price in a listed company and as a result the number of stock investors in Indonesia is very small. This cause made it difficult for the community to predict the stock price of banking companies at inconsistent prices. The method to be used in this paper is Linear Regression using Excel tools to perform calculations and SPSS 16.0 as a data mining tool. The research data taken is historical data of banking companies for 3 periods as a whole in the form of excel that has been downloaded from the Yahoo Finance website. The final results are in the form of MAPE charts in 3 years period, and Average error chart in 3 years period.

Основываясь на богатой традиции описания и каталогизации предметов искусства, а также применяя современные технологии и искусствоведческие методы, стало возможным подготовить и издать научный каталог коллекций основного фонда Музея традиционной культуры имени Зая-пандиты Калмыцкого научного центра РАН. This article discusses the problem of studying the museum collection of Buddhist fine art in Kalmykia, as well as preserving the artistic heritage in the context of globalization of cultures. The author aims to create scientifically based information resources that include research on museum collections and exhibits. Information is the essence of museum business, which is based on research activities that combine the fields of acquisition, accounting and storage of funds, on the one hand, and on the other hand, communicative activities related to exposition and exhibition activities. The initial work of the museum is not only the preserved fund, but also information about the exhibits collected in the process of acquiring the fund and creating a museum collection catalog consisting of collections. The Zaya-Pandita Museum of Traditional Culture of the Kalmyk Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences stores and presents in the educational sphere multidisciplinary and largely unique information about the cultural heritage of the people. Based on a rich tradition of describing and cataloging objects of art, as well as using modern technologies and art criticism methods, it has become possible to prepare and publish a scientific catalog of the collections of the main fund of the Zaya-Pandita Museum of Traditional Culture.
