- Abstract
A problem of forming ethnic identity is especially important for representatives of the indigenous peoples, as in the current climate of global transformations it is getting increasingly difficult to maintain the uniqueness of traditional cultures under the influence of dominating ones. But at the same time within the culture itself there are many mechanisms, which help to build and maintain ethnic identity. One of such mechanisms is the arts and crafts. The basis for the analysis have been the works of the Krasnoyarsk Territory bone carvers. The authors of the paper open the possibility of this kind of art in the preservation of traditional cultural values, formation of ethnic identity of the indigenous peoples in modern times
