Based on archival materials, field expeditions, and rare folklore records, this book reveals Novgorod mythology as a living system of beliefs—unique, polyphonic, and contradictory.

Who was "volos" (hair) and why was it feared more than snakes? Where did the sorcerer crocodile come from in Novgorod waters? Why shouldn't you whistle in the forest, touch "zalomy" (kinks) in a field, and what happens if you don't offer the master of the house some milk? You'll learn what the villagers and towns of the Novgorod region believed and continue to believe, and why mythology remains a part of their daily lives.
