Abstract

The article presents the typological model of Yakutia’s natural and cultural heritage developed by the authors the substantial elements of which are natural objects and phenomena, material artifacts of culture, material and spiritual objects and spiritual elements of culture. This model demonstrates a rather stable sociocultural informational and value-conscious system, formed in the course of adaptation of the ethnicities inhabiting the region to the extremely severe environment of the North. The objects of natural cultural heritage create a system characterized in intrinsic relation by effective methods of environmental management, an original material and spiritual culture, a diversity of strategies of activity and managing. These reveal themselves in the rigid observation of natural rhythms, transfer to the subsequent generations of knowledge of features of the landscapes, natural resources, migrations of birds and animals, routes of nomadic wandering, places of settlements and nomadic housing, etc., as well as in the formation of a value-oriented spiritual bond with the primordial habitat, as well as the perception and celebration of its beauty and particularities.
