[pagan-magik] Romuva

[Ivan Kaliayew]

hello all,
 
Here and now, I introduce you the Lithuanian pagan movement Romuva, some kind of revival of the old prechristian Baltic belief. Lithuania is the last christianised country of Europe, after two crusades and brutal baptasing of Jesuits. Officially it turned to christianity around 1400, but in practice and in the villages of course much later. You can still find in Lithuania many pagan 'hills' and symbols. They say Romuva has now about 3000 members and is quite wellknown in Lithuania. In short a very interesting country and history for people interested in paganism.
 
greetings from Belgium,
Raf
