THE REFLECTION OF NATIONAL VALUES, HISTORICAL MEMORY, AND SPIRITUAL HERITAGE IN THE NAMES OF PILGRIMAGE SITES
Keywords:
pilgrimage site names, national values, historical memory, spiritual heritage, onomastics, linguoculturology, sacred space, saint, upbringing, cultural identity.Abstract
This article analyzes the ways in which national values, historical memory, and
spiritual heritage are reflected in the names of pilgrimage sites, drawing on onomastic,
linguocultural, and pedagogical approaches. The names of pilgrimage sites are regarded
as important linguistic and cultural units that embody the religious and educational beliefs
of a people, their historical experience, ancestral memory, perceptions of sacred spaces,
and national identity. The article interprets pilgrimage site names not merely as means of
naming but as symbolic signs that transmit collective memory, systems of values, and the
content of spiritual and moral education from generation to generation. The study
employs descriptive, semantic, historical-etymological, linguocultural, and pedagogical
methods of analysis. The findings indicate that the names of pilgrimage sites possess
considerable educational potential for preserving national values, restoring historical
memory, and fostering respect for ancestral heritage, patriotism, religious tolerance,
spiritual purity, and awareness of cultural identity among younger generations. The
article provides a scholarly examination of the use of pilgrimage site names in educational
and upbringing processes, their significance in developing linguocultural competence, and
their role in spiritual and educational activities.
