Baba Roga tales
« on: June 10, 2016, 04:31:27 pm »
I have spent the morning looking for specifically for mythology behind Baba Roga.... and it's been tough. There is so much about the Baba Yaga, which I understand they have a similar or the same origin. But, I refuse to give up on there existing somewhere on the internet sources for just Baba Roga.

I'm having my mom call my uncle to ask him what he knows. He is Croatian and has expertise in ancient civilizations of Europe and a lot of knowledge on our folklore. I am also looking into joining a fraternal group who has sources of folklore. I put up a post on my blog about it and I will try to reach out to some of the Slavic pagans on Tumblr about her.

So, has anyone found any or know of any books or anything really? I have found plenty on her being a boogeyman, but I want to know more.

Somewhere I have read or seen something about Baba Roga,but do not remember where.
I hope you find something to help you with your study..I think you mentioned your uncle being Croatian,so I imagine it has something to do with local wisdom.

My family was mainly French in origin(just myself and my younger Sister left now) I am 69,so old. I am Pisces if you wondered.
Move along,nothing to see here.
