Abstract

The article takes an attempt to argue primariness of intangible heritage toward tangible one exhibited in ethnographic collections of museums using the example of semantic analysis of key (on the author's view) monuments of East-Slavic ethnic culture.

The possibilities of revealing the features of the ethnic worldview through a thing are considered.
