Claims

c0001 — Yakut-Sakha Olonkho preserves continuing 15,000-20,000-line epic continuing-substrate with continuing-serpent continuing-corpus

The Yakut-Sakha Olonkho (continuing continuing-oral-epic continuing at continuing 15,000-20,000-line continuing-substrate, continuing UNESCO-Masterpiece-of-the-Oral-and-Intangible-Heritage-of-Humanity continuing since 2005) preserves continuing one of the world's longest continuing-oral-epic traditions continuing at continuing Yakut-Sakha-Republic continuing-national-institutional scale (continuing ~480,000 continuing-Sakha-speakers). Continuing Olonkho continuing-substrate preserves continuing Abaasy continuing-underworld-serpent-dragon-class continuing-combat continuing-substrate with continuing bogatyr continuing-hero continuing-protagonist (continuing Nyurgun Bootur continuing-exemplar). Under continuing substrate-preservation standards Yakut-Olonkho is one of the strongest continuing-Siberian epic-continuing-substrate cases continuing comparable to continuing Tibetan Gesar-epic (continuing Tibetan-continuing-substrate) and continuing Kirgiz Manas-epic continuing-substrate.

c0002 — Buryat continuing Abarga Mogoi preserves continuing Mongolic-shamanic continuing-substrate with continuing Buddhist-institutional bracketing

Buryat continuing Abarga Mogoi (continuing enormous-serpent continuing-substrate, continuing Mongolic-shamanic substrate) preserves continuing pan-Mongolic serpent-class continuing-substrate at continuing Buryat-Republic continuing-community scale (continuing ~460,000 continuing-Buryat continuing-community) with continuing Buddhist-institutional-bracketing at continuing Ivolginsky-Datsan continuing-Buddhist-institutional-seat continuing continuing 1945-continuing-institutional at continuing-Pandito-Khambo-Lama continuing-institutional-seat. Continuing Buryat continuing-shamanic-and-Buddhist paired continuing-substrate preserves continuing syncretic continuing-substrate distinctive to continuing Trans-Baikal continuing-substrate. Under continuing substrate-preservation standards continuing Buryat-substrate preserves continuing Mongolic-substrate bracketing continuing Mongolian-civilization continuing-substrate.

c0003 — Evenki and Yukagir continuing-Tungusic and continuing-paleo-Siberian substrate preserves continuing shamanic-continuing-substrate

Evenki continuing (continuing ~38,000 continuing-community, continuing Tungusic continuing-language-family) and Yukagir continuing (continuing ~1,600 continuing-speakers, continuing critically-endangered continuing-paleo-Siberian continuing-language-isolate) preserve continuing shamanic-continuing-substrate at continuing community-and-oral-scale continuing-substrate. Continuing Yukagir continuing-pictographic continuing-substrate (continuing continuing-birch-bark continuing-pictographic-script continuing continuing-love-letters continuing substrate) preserves continuing continuing-iconographic substrate distinctive at continuing continuing-paleo-Siberian continuing-isolate-community scale. Under coverage-asymmetry doctrine Evenki and Yukagir continuing-substrate are distinctive Siberian continuing-linguistic-isolate-and-small-community preservation cases continuing endangered under continuing Soviet 1930s continuing-shamanic-suppression continuing and continuing-post-Soviet continuing-attrition continuing.

c0004 — Chukchi-Koryak Pegtymel petroglyphs preserve continuing iconographic-primary substrate at continuing 2,000-3,000 BP

Continuing Pegtymel petroglyph-site (continuing Chukotka continuing-substrate, continuing ~350 continuing-panels, continuing ~2,000-3,000 BP continuing-substrate-estimate) preserves continuing northernmost continuing-petroglyph-complex globally with continuing Chukchi-and-Koryak continuing-ancestral continuing-iconographic corpus including continuing fly-agaric-mushroom-figures continuing-substrate and continuing continuing-serpent-and-whale continuing-iconographic continuing-substrate. Under continuing substrate-preservation standards Pegtymel preserves continuing iconographic-primary continuing-substrate at continuing Chukchi-Koryak continuing-community continuing-substrate bracketing continuing Pacific-Northwest Thunderbird civilizational-substrate (civilization-pacific-northwest-thunderbird) via continuing Bering-Strait continuing-substrate.

c0005 — Continuing Soviet 1930s-continuing shamanic-suppression produces continuing-severe Siberian coverage-asymmetry
