The head of the CofE's proposal to canonise a violent foreign criminal, while apparently divergent from normal Christian practices, is in a sense consistent with the view of early saints, many of which were hostile non Europeans celebrated for their efforts to destroy European culture (paganism). They've simply changed the target from European religion to European identity and culture in general.

Not a dig at the good a Christians who oppose this sort of thing. Just an observation.

An impressive 5th Century buckle from Åker, Norway. It’s interesting how the face is flanked by both bird heads and boar heads…could be an image of Wodan, and/or Yngvi-Freyr.

This may be Pagan craftsman Zayat's last photo for a while. He is in court today, trying to defend himself. Though the chances are low, since in russia only 0,33% of trials end with an acquittal. All because he drew and carved traditional symbols like swastika and criticized communism.

I visited Brittish Museum in London so I m sharing some of the things that intriged me. This one was found in the river Schelde (Scaldis) in Flanders, Belgium. My absolute favorite ship figure head. Allthough the description of the museum alludes to a possible Roman influence, other historians pointed out this is likely of Germanic making. Saxons and Frisians and Frankish tribes were well established in late Roman era in these parts.

Conversion was superficial at best. There were Pagan priests, shrines and rituals all over the countryside (hence the term pagan itself). Ethnography confirms the complete lack of christian belief outside (sometimes even inside) the cities in Europe as late as 19th c.

Nagoloven is a term which was used for male headbands, but those were not decorated and purely utilitarian. It was also worn regularly only by a rare few men who had to move their head a lot while working like wool beaters and coopers.

Militarily they were superlative horse-archers and at the heart of that supremacy was the design, not only of the Scythian bow, but also of other key items of inter-connected equipment.

The Scythians had a coherent system of well-designed and distinctively unique archery tackle, from the bows themselves to the arrows and poison, the ingenuity of the gorytos and the bolstered saddle. It is little wonder that they won such fame on the battlefield.

Under Christianity we are Jew-worshippers; or else, in despair or confusion, we worship nothing at all beyond the immediate money values, or similar depravity. In either case we lose touch with our source of life and strength.

I was surprised to see the village of Boxford, a place I used to get drunk with friends as a youth, is in the news. An oak Mesolithic "totem pole" used by WHG in their rituals was found in peat. Dated between 4640BC and 4605BC, it is the oldest decoratively carved timber found in Britain. These timbers were set in post holes much like the Megalithic monuments that the first farmers would build when they arrived later, and they are sometimes found on the same sites, hinting that monuments like Stonehenge may have been a continuation of a WHG custom.

Seven early christucks owned by one Pagan

Then some Jews who went around trying to drive out demons attempted to use the name of the Lord Jesus on those who had evil spirits, saying, “I command you by that Jesus whom Paul preaches!” Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this.
Then the man with the evil spirit jumped on them, got the better of them, and so violently overpowered all of them that they fled out of the house naked and bruised.

So a male headband may not have been as much of a taboo as some claim when it comes to Slavic lands.
Though it is true that by the time Vladimir Dal (a famous lexicographer) was writing his Explanatory Dictionary (19th century) the only ones wearing decorated headbands were women and that was probably the case for 3-5 centuries before that.

I personally find them esthetically pleasing and functional when it comes to long hair.

So, superficially it does seem that males of Ancient Ruse never wore decorated headbands. But, we know that in Scandinavia it was somewhat common.
Examples from Gisli saga:

king gave him a robe of honour, and golden-seamed gloves, and a fillet with a knot of gold on it, and a Russian hat.

a round buckler, and a silken band round his brow, and his hair was brushed back behind his ears.

one man who had a scarlet cloak over his shoulders, and a gold band round his head, and an axe studded with silver in his hand.

Ochelie is a term historically sed for female headbands. This is clear in the sources. But, again, modern Pagans call male headbands ochelie too. This is indeed inaccurate.
