Dede Korkut Stories are one of the most important works of Turkish literature and contain important information for many disciplines such as literature, language, religion, history, sociology and folklore. In its essence, it contains many tangible and intangible values that reflect the cultural world of the previous periods, as well as a quantitative and qualitative source on the subject of our study, colors and numbers. In this study, it is aimed to determine the colors and numbers in Dede Korkut Stories, to evaluate their functionality in the context of cultural memory and to interpret their symbolic meanings. In this context, by giving text examples of the colors and numbers determined in the stories, it has been evaluated with examples that they are not only a certain period, like other cultural values in the stories, but also a reflection of the previous periods, as a carrier element of cultural memory with the process of existence, preservation and transmission. Within the holistic structure of the texts, it has been seen that colors and numbers are a kind of cultural code, with the meanings they ascribe as indicators of the deep-rooted past. When these cultural values and codes are determined and their usage in the context, their symbolic and formal features are examined, it is concluded that they are important carrier elements of cultural memory from past to present, even with some changes and transformations in the Anatolian field.
