We have revealed constant formula common for the Buryats, Kalmyks, Oirats, Khalkha-Mongols as a whole and for each of the people in particular. Explicit expressions of Buryat epic is characterized by detailed description of appearance at several levels, while to epics of the Oirats and Khalkha Mongols more concise constants and less detailed descriptions are inherent. The nature of formation ethnopoetic constants, their common basis and at the same time the diversity and uniqueness of variants are predominantly caused by geo-landscape peculiarities of the territory of inhabitance, the way of life, ethnic and cultural features of the Mongol peoples. In addition, the description of female beauty in epic retains much of archaic features which are closely associated with the existed mythological views.
