Abstract:

Accumulations of burnt pebbles are often found in burials of the early nomads. Such pebbles are called kumalak- stones in literature suggesting the purpose of fortune-telling or playing. But neither their size nor weight, nor their form is similar to real kumalaks. The key to understanding the purpose of these pebbles is that they are burnt. The article suggests that they are accessories of the “steam bath of the Scythians” for the ritual of the purification after burial. Although in some cases these pebbles could be used for fortune-telling as well. In female burials of the 4th—3rd centuries

Using various fortune-telling methods to get information about the future is an action that people have been doing for hundreds of years.

Sumarokov’s distichs — biletsy — were humorous additions to the New and Amusing Lottery Game (1764). They and the Tickets by I. S. Barkov that parodied them seem to be the only genre of Russian Classicism that did not have a Western European prototype. For his private leisure, rather than for the public use, Sumarokov had compiled Fortune-Telling Book of Love (1774) from the verses of his own tragedies. In the middle of the 19th century, the book encouraged n. A. Markevich to write a parody on the love poetry of the 18th century.

Asserting the strong fate-improving theory of full names as the basics or precondition of nameology contributed significantly to making widely it known to people.

The arbitrary dating of the notes “To the 1st part” to 1845–1846 is refuted by numerous facts indicating that the images and motifs of the notes were “interspersed” by Gogol into the overall fabric of the poem.
