Myth #15

Why it is prohibited to pierce the soil with iron tools.

For Northern people it is forbidden to pierce the soil with the knife as they believe that The Earth feels the pain. It shows the high level of ecological thinking which was already thousands of years ago! With purchasing the photo, you will get a personal detailed myth explaining who (exactly who) was the Earth for Khanty people.

To every collector I am also open to have a call and tell more about the lifestyle or myths of indigenous people of the North.
