Abstract
The aim of the study is to analyse the time sequence between historical events and the creation of epic works such as “Alpamys,” “Korogly,” and “Kitabi dede Korkud” in order to understand their role and significance in the cultural context of Central Asia. The following research methods have been used in this work: generalisation, systematisation, analytical and historical-typological methods. As a result of this study, it was found that the heroic epic of Central Asia reveals not only artistic aspects but also deep layers of history and cultural memory. The analysis of the epics through the prism of historicism and typology allows for understanding of the evolution of society and the formation of values. The study of the musical epic works of the peoples of Central Asia, considering historical events and characters, allowed understanding and evaluating their historical and cultural significance more deeply. The struggle of heroes against tyrants, the defence of their native land, and the reflection of the socio-cultural peculiarities of the people in epics are references to real historical phenomena and key elements of their content. The importance of the characters, their connection to historical figures and their social significance emphasise the role of these works in preserving and transmitting the cultural and historical heritage of the people.
