Özet:

Turkish hospitality and dining culture are the material and concrete reward of the tradition of sharing and sharing transmitted from generation to generation through the historic process. In the Kazak culture, which brings the traditional characteristics of Turkish hospitality to the present day, the guest (host) varieties and characteristics, the gifts offered to the guests (tables) show the connection with the concept of land in ancient Turkish culture. The names and forms of presentation, the cultural meaning of the animal spots in the prizes, the legends and beliefs about the spots are the subject of this article. In the Kazak society, the guest is generally welcomed by the word host. Except in this general sense, in which days the guests (wedding, birth, etc. Their visits are done and their visit purposes (cut, relatives visit, etc.) The hosts are given different names. In the Turkish culture, the tables established in meetings such as kurultay and toy and the form and quantities of the gifts in these tables are also called land. The land used in the political and social sense in the meaning of "part, share, share" has been an indicator of the social status and value, in the meaning of the share, gift and gift given to a person in today's Kazakh society. In the Kazak culture, when the names of the gifts (the meat and bone parts) are heard, the reason for the knowledge of who the dish is to be presented is due to the determination of the rules (tours). In Kazakhstan, the culture of guest welcoming and the awards, though lived among the people, have not been written and the function in culture has not been defined. Therefore, the aim of the study is to reveal the system of application and content of the Kazak guest welcoming culture, the concept of hospitality in social life. In the article, it was used an illustrative method in the interpretation of the material culture (sorts of tabak) of land/pay, guest welcoming forms and traditions. The foundation of the imaging method is the appearance of a cultural element, the fields of understanding and use within its own culture. The study took advantage of semi-constructed conversations with the Kazakis due to the lack of written resources in the identification of the tables. In the cultural history research, the issue of the seat is processed in the words in previous studies, while in this article, the concept area of the seat and the existence of the guest reception and gifts were discussed. The land was used as a tool for understanding the guest culture. In addition, the Kazak guest welcoming culture was assessed in the context of how this welcoming took place and to whom the various spots of the animal were given and meaning, the way each plate was prepared and what it contained in the context of social relationships. Referring to the place and meaning of animal nodes in the Kazak folk legends, it was attempted to identify how the transfer of cultural heritage to future generations was carried out. According to the article, today in Kazakhstan, starting from the food and guest welcoming culture, the country’s layer varieties continue to exist, and these layer varieties have an important role in the distribution of shares and organize social relations, determining social statutes. In the Kazak, the tables offered to guests and guests are applied according to a certain trace and law, while in subsequent periods the tables presentation was found to have become a tradition with a socio-cultural change.
