Abstract The title of this article is the examination of the nature of genius loci phenomenon in culture as well as rethinking its status in contemporary anthropology. The subject of the analysis is the ambiguity of the concept, which functions as a multi-layered metaphor in both society and science and its dynamics and evolution on the basis of modernistic processes. The analysis aims to establish the importance of genius in relation to different research contexts.
