Abstract
The article traces the origin and evolution of the legal system of the Kyrgyz Republic. The influence ofthe national mentality on the sources of law and legal practice in this country over the centuries is shown.The author argues that it is impossible to unequivocally judge whose legal culture turned out to be higher —sedentary tribes or nomads on the territory of present-day Kyrgyzstan. The way of life influenced the level oflegal culture of the people, but ambiguously. The settled population had their own developed legal culture —they managed to create the infrastructure of viable cities, established a judicial system, maintained orderin numerous craft workshops and in the construction of irrigation systems. Even the slopes of the foothillswere culturally treated, where water was supplied for irrigation through prepared ditches along the steepslopes of the mountains. And the nomads learned to reproduce their way of life in constant travel, get alongwith neighboring tribes, trade successfully, and regulate money circulation.
