Summary “Svyatogor bogatyr”
A long epic is considered by many to be fiction, comparing it with fairy tales. However, epic, that is, byl, differs significantly from folk fantasy. Of course, the events described in the stories are much exaggerated. But scientists find confirmation that they took place in real life. For example, in the caves of the Kiev Lavra lies cancer with imperishable relics of Ilya of Murom, who lived during the reign of Prince Vladimir Krasnoe Solnyshko. At the same time, there lived Svyatogor – a hero, who repeatedly met with the winner of Nightingale the robber.
Ilya Muromets, Dobrynya Nikitich and Alyosha Popovich are the most famous troika of ancient Russian epic heroes, the prototypes of which, by the way, were real people. But the legends tell of another man, no less revered. This – the hero Svyatogor, whose biography is known, mainly from the epic. How he was – is for certain unknown. After all, at the time when Svyatogor-Bogatyr lived, there were no cameras or
According to the epic, a hero lived on the high Holy Mountains (hence his nickname), and did not visit the cities and races of Russia. Why?

However, such a judgment remains only a hypothesis – without confirmation and refutation.
But some researchers believe that they found the last refuge of the hero. By the period of the war between the inhabitants of Rus and the Pechenegs is the boyar burial mound Gulbishche near Chernigov. Buried in him a man (Svyatogor-bogatyr?), Though not related to the princely family, still was very noble and important, as evidenced by objects in the burial. The weapons and things of the deceased are of impressive size. Perhaps, here lies the historical prototype of the glorious epic hero? It is worth noting that the location of the mound also suggests the truth of the epic. Gulbishche is located on the Boldiny Mountains, near the Holy Grove. Did these rocks serve as a home for Svyatogor?
