Abstract:

Rites and symbols of initiation and the mysteries of birth and rebirth are one of the subcatagoreis of the herochr('39')s  mythological model, contains a collection of rituals and techniques whose ultimate purpose is to acquaint humans with the sacred things and superior beings.One of these rituals is the familiarization of the age of puberty among different ethnic groups, which more or less have the same structure. Based on these common structures, Mircea Eliadeh proposes a universal pattern for the familiarization of the age of puberty among the rituals, ceremonies and other texts. From this perspective, the epic of Bourzonameh, the work of Ata bin Jacob Nakuk Razi, seems to be the narrative of the age of puberty ritual, in terms of plot and deep structure.  In his way, Borzou, the novice in this epic, is accepted by the warrior class after his success in the passing of the age of puberty rituals.
