dc.description.abstractThe shamanistic exclamation read as çök, possibly transliterated as çwk, 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 in-scriptions have been analysed to date, which provides the basis for a tentative inter-pretation 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: çök. Repeated regularly during shamanistic rituals, it assumes the significance of the Abrahamic 'Amen!'. In order to confirm this assumption, its use in the contempo-rary Turkic rituals in southern Siberia will also be analysed. © 2017 Otto Harrassowitz GmbH. Co.KG. All rights reserved.en_US
