Özet
The shamanistic exclamation read as cok, possibly transliterated as piik, was in all likelihood an exclamation during sacrificial rites. Inscribed into objects discovered in today's Tuva and Khakassia regions, a significant number of these Yenisei inscriptions have been analysed to date, which provides the basis for a tentative interpretation in the present article. Here, the focus will be on a word which is mentioned in three Yenisei inscriptions and which has been interpreted in very different ways: ca. Repeated regularly during shamanistic rituals, it assumes the significance of the Abrahamic 'Amen!'. In order to confirm this assumption, its use in the contemporary Turkic rituals in southern Siberia will also be analysed.
