A place for Aryan (European) Folkish Pagans
Join us live on 8/25/25 at 4pm eastern for another Pagan Revivalist Interview with Pretani Chieftain on Anglo-Saxon Revivalism!
We will cover many subjects including the peculiarities of Anglo-Saxon Revival, as well as issues revolving around christianity, platonism, syncretism, the pie and many others.
Most likely there will be a Q&A afterwards where you will get to ask questions to the Chieftain.
We have interviewed many people over the years, and this one will be just as engaging full of interesting topics and showing how Anglo-Saxon Revivalism is strong!
In Germany, the Wichtlein (little Wights) are little old long-bearded men, about three-quarters of an ell high, which haunt the mines of the southern land. The Bohemians call the Wichtlein by the name of Haus-schmiedlein, little House-smiths, from their sometimes making a noise as if labouring hard at the anvil.

Under the general title of Coblynau I class the fairies which haunt the mines, quarries and underground regions of Wales…The word coblyn has the double meaning of knocker or thumper and sprite or fiend; and may it not be the original of goblin? It is applied by Welsh miners to pigmy fairies which dwell in the mines, and point out, by a peculiar knocking or rapping, rich veins of ore.
Wirt Sikes
The most familiar form of the Pwca story…presents a peasant who is returning home from his work, or from a fair, when he sees a light travelling before him. Looking closer he perceives that it is carried by a dusky little figure, holding a lantern or candle at arm’s length over its head. He follows it for several miles, and suddenly finds himself on the brink of a frightful precipice.

Want to give a moralist christian a heart attack? Show proof of Pagan societies not only having laws against amoral behavior in general, but even specifically against pre-marital sex. That’s something even most christians would call puritan, yet it was absolutely an element of pre-christian moral and legal codes.

Sphendosthlavos arrived sailing along the river in a Scythian light boat, grasping an oar and rowing with his companions as if he were one of them. His appearance was as follows: he was of moderate height, neither taller than average, nor particularly short; his eyebrows were thick; he had grey eyes and a snub nose; his beard was clean-shaven, but he let the hair grow abundantly on his upper lip where it was bushy and long; and he shaved his head completely, except for a lock of hair that hung down on one side, as a mark of the nobility of his ancestry; he was solid in the neck, broad in the chest and very well articulated in the rest of his body; he had a rather angry and savage appearance; on one ear was fastened a gold earring, adorned with two pearls with a red gemstone between them; his clothing was white, no different from that of his companions…

According to you the Russian people is the most religious in the world. That is a lie! The basis of religiousness is pietism, reverence, fear of God. Whereas the Russian man utters the name of the Lord while scratching himself somewhere. He says of the icon: If it works, pray to it; if it doesn’t, it’s good for covering pots.
Not that you are not a thinker, but that you have been accustomed for so many years to look at Russia from your beautiful far-away; and who does not know that there is nothing easier than seeing things from a distance the way we want to see them

The coblynau are described as being about half a yard in height and very ugly to look upon, but extremely good-natured, and warm friends of the miner. Their dress is a grotesque imitation of the miner’s garb, and they carry tiny hammers, picks and lamps. They work busily, loading ore in buckets, flitting about the shafts, turning tiny windlasses, and pounding away like madmen, but really accomplishing nothing whatever. They have been known to throw stones at the miners, when enraged at being lightly spoken of; but the stones are harmless. Nevertheless, all miners of a proper spirit refrain from provoking them, because their presence brings good luck.
W.Sikes
At the same moment the little goblin with the lantern springs across the chasm, alighting on the opposite side; raises the light again high over its head, utters a loud and malicious laugh, blows out its candle and disappears up the opposite hill, leaving the awestruck peasant to get home as best he can.

…it happened that the girl fell pregnant after having sex with a man in secret. At first she managed to hide her condition; but when Cleanax became aware of it, he was angry about the mishap, and summoning Cretheis in private he held her wholly responsible for everything, emphasising the dishonor it brought among their fellow-citizens.

When debating a christian never agree that objective truth exits. If you do you fall into a trap, because objectivity leads to universality. Even pre-christian axial "religions" (elaborate forms of atheism) like platonism believed in objective truth, but Pagan traditional religions were always against objectivity and universality. Pagan societies had ethnically exclusive belief, morals and truths. Everything was localized.

Scyles was king of Scythia; but he was in no way content with the Scythian way of life…and in every way follow the Greek manner of life, and worship the gods according to Greek usage…Octamasades beheaded Scyles on the spot. This is how closely the Scythians guard their customs, and these are the penalties they inflict on those who add foreign customs to their own.

Slavic priests (volkhvs) were the exception to the no beard custom as attested by Saxo’s description of the temple priest.
On the day before he was obliged to perform the sacred ceremony, its priest, conspicuous for his lengthy hair and beard, which went counter to common fashion in that land, used to take a broom and meticulously sweep out the sanctuary, where only he was allowed to enter.
Saxo Grammaticus
It is natural to assume that Weles, Slavic God of Magic and Underworld is also bearded since this is referenced in folklore.
Leo Deacon, Saxo Grammaticus, Ademar de Chabannes and st.Demetrius of Rostov all mention that pre-christian Slavic men did not grow beards, but had long mustache. This was true for all tribes, e.g. Saxo wrote about Wends.
