Abstract
The article outlines the history of populating Kolyma (beginning with the 17thcentury) and of its historical settlements, Nizhnekolymsk and Pokhodsk. The history of epic songs (bylinys) collecting in the region is described (D. I. Melikov, V. G. Bogoraz, S. I. Bolo). The localbylinysare analyzed. Archaic versions of certain story lines are highlighted, as well as the influence of the manuscript tradition (The Wars of the Jewsby Josephus Flavius) on one of the epic songs,Mikhail Danilovich,anUnderage Warrior. Direct links between Kolyma and Indigirka (Russkoye Ustye) are established.
