Why Turks whore a WOLF flag and admiring a wolf?
One of the mythical texts related to Noah says, that
relying on the inspiration by God Prophet Noah forecasts
the strong storm and flood. Therefore, Prophet
Noah builds an arc and places a pair of animals from
each kind on it. After a while the earth was covered
with water. All people aredrowned in the water and
died. Then the storm stops. Turk, one of the legendary
sons of Prophet Noah basing on his father's advice takes
a sheep and a ram and goes to an island. But, everywhere
being surrounded by water he couldn't leave the
island. One day Turk found an animal killed and eaten.
And then he thinks to himself whether there are other
animals besides the sheep. Whom was it eaten by? Turk
was surprised greatly; he didn't sleep whole night
watching. Suddenly he discovers something approaching
towards them in the water. Approaching closer,
Turk saw a grey wolf. The wolf rushed to the animal.
This moment Turk stood on wolf 's way. Having seen
him the grey wolf stepped backward and Turk started
following it. They ran far away. Turk found the way of
the wolf in the water was very shallow hardly reaching
ankles. After a while, they come to the fry land. This
way Turk saved his life.
Turk thought that grey wolf rescued him. So he drew
wolf on his flag. Thereafter, when his kin increased, he
reminded his sons the grey wolf as their rescuer. If not for
the wolf, the Turkic kin would not have survived. In case of
any disaster Turks must address to him.
This mythical text discovered in Nakhchivan gives us
very interesting materials. Note: though having the whole
plots-texts differences, the different mythical texts are concentrated
around the same succession. Namely, these
images are the myths included to the Turkish mythic system
and concentrated around the only Turkic myths. So, the
relation of Prophet Noah with Turkic kin must not be understood
as different events.
The myths connected with the storm of Noah have
widely been spread in the world folklore. The main problem
is that the Turkic mythology has developed and as an
idea has possessed the image of Noah himself. On the other
hand, the image of Turk is included to the context connected
with the grey wolf.
Thus, in the images of Noah, Turk and Grey Wolf follow
one another. The relation of Noah with Gami-Gaya
enables us to think this order as a sacral toponymic location.
Thus, the ancient Gami-Gaya rock of Nakhchivan, its relation
with Turkic and Islamic mythology justifies the
chronotypic parameters of antiquity in the memory of the
ethos living in this land.
