摘要：The presented article has shown an effort to reconstruct the exploitation history of additional possibilities provided by the presence of stable low temperatures in the region – the «Resources of cold» in economic and sociocultural practices of the rural communities in Yakutia. On the one hand, the selected chronological framework is allowing to reconstruct the role of the «Resources of cold» in the traditional life-support system before the Soviet modernization, on the other hand, it allows to relay on the considerably representative body of source data. Within the framework of the performed reconstruction, three main directions in usage of the «Resources of cold» were separated. They were of high importance in ensuring of transport linkages across the vast Yakutia areas. Particularly, the performed study allowed to determine that all the three routes of supply of the Kolyma region in Yakutia at the beginning of the XX century were based on the possibilities that were given by the presence of the «Resources of cold». The «Resources of cold» were also highly significant in the feed system. The possibility of all-the-year-round storage of food products in special ice-boxes, of deep freeze use at their preparation, as well as transportation of perishable food has played a major role in villagers' life, as it not only increased variability of dishes, but also quite often saved people from starvation. Moreover, sanitary and hygiene aspect of the «Resources of cold» was shown: consumption of melt water, house and linen disinfection, folk remedies were one of the means to improve the quality of life of the representatives of the rural communities in Yakutia during the second half of the XIXth – beginning of the XXth centuries.
