Pages: 100-107

Abstract

The authors study a traditional Khakass women's breast adornment (pogo), its semantics, symbolism and place in the structure of cultural and historical heritage of the Khakass  Republic. The authors conclude that pogo has become a part of heraldic art and symbolizes the polyethnic Khakass society.
