The encyclopedia consists of seven thematic sections dealing with different but interrelated objects of the Kazakh world coined in the symbolic and sign language that is part of the semiotic system of Kazakh culture. The authors do not claim the completeness of the material and its coverage. But in the future, when it has accumulated and is known, it is possible to make additions and clarifications. The publication is intended for heritage specialists, young researchers, students and teachers, as well as for a wide audience.
