About This Book

Kirjoitus esittelee muinaisten suomalaisten uskonto- ja pyhämenoja sekä niiden hitaasti muuttunutta suhdetta kristinuskoon, kuvaten miten vanhat rituaalit saattoivat sekoittua uusiin uskomuksiin. Se kuvaa vuoden alun juhlia ja karjan suojeluun liittyviä menoja, lehmien merkintää, erityisiä Henkien päiviä Ristin ympärillä sekä niihin liittyvää hiljaisuutta ja kieltoja tehdä työtä. Teksti kuvaa myös käytäntöjä, kuten uhrauksia ja kotipihojen suojauksia, sekä kansantarinoita, jotka havainnollistavat tabojen rikkomisen seurauksia ja perinteen muuttumista ajan kuluessa.
