Kazakh funeral of Novosibirsk region (on the 2016 expedition materials)

In the article new materials for funereal rites are introduced into scientific circulation, as a result of repeated studies, 17 years later, the survey in Kupinsky, Chistoozernoe, Zdvinsk and Krasnozyorsky Districts of Novosibirsk Region. During this time, the number of Kazakh population there declined sharply in line with the overall demographic situation in these regions. The low number and geographical dispersion of population should have an impact on the preservation of traditional culture. However, these factors hardly affected the ideology and culture of the Kazakhs in the region. Local differences in the funeral rites are expressed in the preservation of some ancient elements lost in other Siberian regions, but still existing according to the materials of the this year expedition in Aktogay, Mayskoye and Sherbaktinskom areas of Pavlodar region.
