Slavic Obragest Dolls

The culture of the ancient Slavs is closest to the Russian man. That is why we looked at the example of the manufacture of the Slavic Oberega.

Features of such talismans who found archaeologists in the place of residence of our ancestors:

1. The Slavs had a cult of women, motherhood. Therefore, dolls always outwardly resembled girls. Considered a symbol of inspiration and fertility. Clay dolls were depicted in the form of a naked woman with all secondary sexual signs.
2. Dolls did not just stored in the house, but also used in magical rites. With their help attracted love, good luck, money, healed from diseases and defended themselves from evil forces.
3. The science of manufacturers were transferred from generation to generations, mother and grandmothers taught young girls to this craft, so as not to confuse knowledge accumulated by the centuries.
4. Protective puppet mascots were practically in every home, and not one way. In the houses of Slavs lived whole puppet families. Each holiday of needlewoman sewed a new charm.

Important: Doll never painted face. She had to stay faceless. Ancient Slavs believed that the talisman exchanges energy with its owner, and if a puppet face look like a human, communication will break. This may lead to negative consequences.

Another important point is only a woman can sew dolls, male do it strictly forbidden. They should not even see the manufacturing process in order not to disturb the magic sacrament.
