The Ossetes are in kinship with the Jasz. They constitute the only people with a significant population in the Caucasus that lives on the northern and southern slopes of the mountains in the present-day Republic of North-Ossetia-Alania. Till the Mongolian Invasion, their history was common with the Jasz: they were part of the Alanians, and it was only the defeat suffered from the Mongolians that tore them apart. In the first half of the 13th century, the ancestors of today’s Ossetes retreated into the defensible straits of the Caucasus while the progenitors of today’s Jasz (along with the Cumanians) moved to the country of Bela IV of Hungary to their present-day living place, i.e. the Jaszsag. Up until the 16th century, they spoke Digor, one of the dialects of the Ossetic language. Before the conquest of the Carpathian Basin, the Alanians lived in the proximity of the Hungarians, as attested by our Alanian loan words having stayed with us to this day. The roots of the national culture of the Ossetes go back to the approximately threethousand-year-old Nart Saga. The mythological background of the Nart Saga and its literature are extremely rich. The epic world of the Narts may be conceived of as a garden: the Nart garden represents the archaic universe. Its main treasure is the golden apple tree of the Narts: the tree of knowledge, the tree of the world and the tree of life, the source of fertility as well as of the forces of life. The translation is an extract from Valery Tsagarayev’s volume entitled The Golden Apple Tree of the Narts.

Description Methods of Kalotaszeg’s Landscape Character

Author(s): Anna Eplényi / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2017

The article introduces ethnographically relevant aspects of landscape character and historic land use patterns for a better understanding of vernacular descriptions of landscape characteristics through the case study of Kalotaszeg (Cluj County, Transylvania, Romania). Eight topics are discussed based on hand-drawn site analysis maps and historic records: geomorphology and landform types of the Kalotaszeg terrain; water tributary system with mills; a drawn aerial model of zones; description of forest types and borderlands; history, typology and aesthetic issues of the lynchet system; landscape patterns like wooded pastures, orchards and vineyards; the results of analytical land use statistics and retrogressive analyses of landscape historical events and relicts; and finally a summary of the uniformity and diversity of Kalotaszeg and its zones.

Cercetările din 1938-1939 ale Ştefaniei Cristescu-Golopenţia

Author(s): Sanda Golopenția / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 17/2017

Ştefania Cristescu-Golopenţia’s personal archive contains materials concerning two projects she undertook during 1938-1939. The first was a study of regional variation in charming on the basis of previous field-research in the villages of Drăguș, Runcu and Șanț. Runcu attested frequent evil eye charming by specialized agents, Șanț presented frequent love charms with aesthetically impressive formulas, while in Drăguș charms essentially concentrated on prosperity and were realized by means of magical gestures and objects mostly. The second project was devoted to magical rituals and beliefs concerning the integrity of the household in 35 villages from Țara Oltului and was based on three parameters: (a) the family; (b) the house and (c) the livestock. WWII and the communist regime prevented the publication of these materials, which remains to be assumed in the near future.

Magia începutului şi umbra ca jertfă a zidirii în riturile de construcţie din Moldova

Author(s): Adina Hulubaş / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 17/2017

After having found the right place for a home, villagers from Moldova start building a new house by paying attention to various magic implications; the day of the week when work starts, the phase of the moon, the stones and the wood they use for the construction are treated as keys to future life. The article presents and analyzes suggestive information from the Folklore Archive of Moldova and Bukovina, collected between 1970 and present day. The ancient immolation of humans in buildings left important traces in the collective mind of rural communities and data on the shadow as a substitute for the walled-up person is discussed from a diachronic point of view.

(Auto)identificarea materială a etnicităţii printre turcii şi tătarii din Başpunar, Independenţa şi Cobadin (judeţul Constanţa)

Author(s): Marin Constantin / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 17/2017

My article is a development of the research report that I pursued, in 2007, among the groups of Tatars and Turks, in the villages of Bairamdede, Başpunar, and Cobadin (Constanţa County). In what follows, local material culture is investigated in terms of its relevance for the ethnic (self) identification of the above-mentioned minority groups. Folk crafts, cuisine, and weaving artifacts are such “physical” embodiments of a series of symbols and traditions that the Turks and the Tatars as well specifically maintain as cultural resources for their ethnicity. The ethnographic heritage and the religious communion appear to interweave both among the Tatar and Turkish people, allowing them (from case to case) either to preserve traditional insignias, or to integrate within one spiritual belonging to Islam.

Pristolnicele din Colecţia Movileanu-Bobulescu din patrimoniul Muzeului Naţional al Ţăranului Român

Author(s): Letiţia-Mirela Cristea / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 17/2017

Within the typology of religious art objects belonging to the National Museum of the Romanian Peasant, we remark a special category, that of prosphora seals. These valuable pieces, part of Movileanu-Bobulescu Collection, stand out by the scrupulousness of handwork and the complexity of details. Part of the museum’s collection since 1999, when they were donated by the family of Constantin Bobulescu – a descendent of Movileanu family –, these prosphora seals, valued within different exhibitions, are unique pieces, testimonials of a long-forgotten craft and a mark of the spiritual richness of the Romanian people.

„Loc bun de casă”. Topografia spaţiului de locuit în credinţele şi riturile de construcţie din Moldova

Author(s): Adina Hulubaş / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 16/2016

Foundation rites came to the attention of different specialists through archaeological findings confirming human sacrifices made for large buildings, bridges and castles. The Legend of Master Manole also maintained a scientific interest in this ritual practice and folk literature. Today, superstitions and magic gestures come to select available spaces for human settlements with the intention to ward off any possible unfortunate outcome. Taboo places to build a new home are numerous. Besides the most obvious ones (churchyards, graves, crime scenes, crossroads etc.), there are other impure spaces that endanger social life. Magic rituals are used to reveal the true nature of a place, and sometimes a dialogue with genius loci is created. The Moldavian region offers a wide variety of such beliefs with a surprising vitality. Documents from The Folklore Archive of Moldavia and Bukovina are used next to an international bibliography in order to analyze the magic topography of constructing.
