Since ancient times, different peoples have gradually developed
ideas about the nature of space and time as the fundamental concepts
in the question of the universe structure. On the one hand, they are
based on the traditional picture of the world, on the other hand, they
are based on various methods of observation of astronomical and natural phenomena and their methods of fixation. Calendar systems were
created on this basis.
In the proposed publication the ideas about the nature of space
and time of India, the North Caucasus, the Near and Far East peoples
are explored.
