The monograph examines theonims, eponyms, anthroponyms, ethnonyms, ethnotoponyms in the epic Manas and their parallels, analogies and similarities in ancient Mesopotamian, biblical and Orkhon-Yenisean texts, The Tale of Igor's Campaign and The Tale of Bygone Years, Rashid ad-Din's Collection of Chronicles and The Secret History of the Mongols, works of European travelers (Plano Carpini, Rubruk, Marco Polo) and medieval Oriental poetry, etc. . Apparently, the saying "once is a coincidence, twice is a coincidence, three times is a regularity" is somehow true this time. We should look at those events through the eyes of that valiant and harsh, complacent and formidable era. Epic information is a reminiscence of historical information, epic truth is a glimpse of historical truth. This is the scientific value and source competence of the Manas epic.
