Summary "Kansantaruja Laatokan luoteis-rannikolta: kesällä 1879" by Theodor Schvindt is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This book explores the folklore and legends of the indigenous peoples living along the northwestern shores of Lake Ladoga, primarily focusing on the Karelian and Lappish communities. It serves as a compilation of local tales, archaeological findings, and cultural practices that reflect the rich history and traditions of the area. The content of the book is structured around various chapters detailing folklore related to the ancient Meteliläiset and Lappalaiset, the significance of sites like Linnamäki and old battlefields, monasteries, and burial grounds. Schvindt recounts stories of giants, ancient warriors, and mythical figures like Jaakko Puntus, blending historical references with local folklore. The text also documents customs regarding sacrifices and the significance of various locations, alongside mentions of archaeological discoveries like weapons and currency. Through these narratives, Schvindt paints a vivid picture of the cultural heritage and the historical legacy of the inhabitants near Lake Ladoga during a transformative era in their history.
