Yakut mythology

Olonkho (, ; ; ) is a series of Yakut and Dolgan heroic epics. The term Olonkho is used to refer to the entire Yakut epic tradition as well as individual epic poems. An ancient oral tradition, it is thought that many of the poems predate the northwards migration of Yakuts in the 14th century, making Olonkho among the oldest epic arts of any Turkic peoples. There are over one hundred recorded Olonkhos, varying in length from a few thousand to tens of thousands of verses, with the most well-known poem Nyurgun Bootur the Swift containing over 36,000 verses.

Ajyyhyt (Aysyt, Ajsyt or Ajyhyt; ; ) is a Turkic goddess of the Yakut people from the Lena River region of Siberia and is an important figure in Turkic mythology. The name means "birthgiver" and she may also be called the "mother of cradles". Her full name is given as Айыыһыт Хотун, meaning "birth-giving nourishing mother". Aisyt brings the soul from heaven at the birth of a baby and records each one in the Golden Book of Fate. She is the daughter of Yer Tanrı.

The Abaasy (Abaahy or Abasy, , Abaası [abaːsɯ]; Dolgan: Абааһы, Abaahı; , Abaasi; , Abasy; cognate of the Turkic word Abası; also Chebeldei) are demons in the mythology of the Sakha (also known as the Yakuts). Yakut shamanism divides the universe into upper and lower layers, with the earth being "a kind of indeterminate space or matter" in between. The abaasy occupy the lower level, referred to as the underworld or "kingdom of darkness."

Aiy (Sakha: Айыы, Ayıı) are benevolent spirits in Yakut mythology. They are creators of the world and of the fabulous land of the Yakut Olonkhos. In Sakha belief Urung Ai Toyon, creator of the world, is the greatest of them. According to mythology, the Aiy live in the Upper World. It is believed that the Aiy will not accept blood sacrifice and therefore they are presented "victims" of vegetable and dairy products.
