The purpose of this article is to reconstruct and conceptualize the specifics of the mythoarchic strategy of understanding being. The main task is to represent the phenomenon of oblivion as one of the main strategies for inquiring about being within the archaic epoch. The phenomenon of oblivion is conceptualized and is considered in the following aspects: metaphylosophical, ontological, epistemological, anthropological. As a result, the phenomenon of oblivion is analyzed as one of the mechanisms that actualize the process of transformation of the archaic Myth into the ancient Logos. The study is based on the application of the following methods: the method of conceptual analysis, the hermeneutic method, the method of deconstruction, comparative analysis, and the psychoanalytic tradition of research on repressed consciousness phenomena. The study found that archaic mythology is a kind of pre-conceptual prologue to philosophy, the history of which is realized as a process of interaction between the subject and being, traditionally conceptualized by the classical tradition in such forms as discovery, appearance, speaking, conditioned The situation of forgetting the preinitial principle and self-eroding oneself. The semantic center of the archaic mythology is the figure of a hero whose main function is to identify and maintain the existing world order by preserving and restoring the differences realized through ritual practices. Mythoontology is the pre-symbolical ontology of the gesture, based on the following principles: a) the ontognosiological interpretation of sensation as an ontic procedure that precedes and causes every attempt to formulate and express the world as a whole; B) predominantly the topographical perception of the world, subsequently supplemented by the historical dimension necessary to include the subject in the sacral dimension of the dynamic being represented by the scheme: the space-god-people. This article is addressed to specialists in the history of philosophy, philosophy, history and theory of culture; Graduate students, undergraduates, students of humanitarian directions, a wide range of readers interested in pressing issues of social and human sciences.
