Karelians, Estonians, Finns, Ingers, Isurians, Vadjaians and Vepsas, Samis and Maris, Ersas and Mokshas, Udmurts and Komis, Khantys, Mansis and Hungarians have believed that the world begins with an egg, that the first piece of land is brought from the bottom of the primeval sea in its beak by a water bird, that our ancestors origin from the sky and go back there, that both humans and gods can take the form of an animal or a bird or a plant, that a person has many souls and some of them can take the form of an insect, a butterfly or a mouse, that our ancestors also return with the migratory birds that arrive in spring , that if the birds and ancestors are greeted beautifully, the field will be more fertile, the herd will flourish, the fish will be caught in the net and the rabbit will jump, that the descendants must also ask the ancestors that the bear hears and the forest remembers.
