Abstract
National values together with kinship traditions as well as ethical principles appear throughout the essential work Alpomish which belongs to Uzbek and Central Asian oral literature. This paper examines the way Alpomish supports cultural preservation of heritage while reinforcing national identity and building social unity. Academic research about Alpomish has grown substantial but the investigation between its heroic content and national identity evolution continues to be a mystery. To fill the research gap this qualitative investigation uses three different methods including textual analysis, folklore discourse examination along with ethnographic review to identify repeated motifs and symbolic representations and linguistic structures. The research identifies Alpomish as a heroic tale that serves as a cultural tool for carrying moral codes alongside governance examples and historical understanding. Educational institutions should integrate Alpomish into their curricula while digital archives should archive it in digital form along with national cultural policies to achieve cultural sustainability. The research emphasized the need to conduct additional research about Turkic epics while studying linguistic changes in oral traditions as well as digital media effects on folklore transmission. This research establishes how Alpomish actively forms national consciousness which expands scholarly understanding of folklore conservation and cultural identification and modern oral tradition adaptations.
