Letečko in Radošovce, 1930s

“Does your home have a few intertwined sprouting willow or birch twigs, decorated with eggs, ribbons or children's creations? Congratulations, in that case you can skip the next lines: this is exactly what a lito, lítěčko, létečko or máječek looks like. Some places it was made right next to the stream where Smrtka (death/Morana effigy) sailed away, others made it in advance. It symbolized the exact opposite of Morana: new life, new energy and the arrival of spring. Some places used the tops of coniferous trees instead of twigs, but the decorations were the same everywhere: blown shells, ribbons, paper doves and other small decorations, usually in green and red.”

“The létečko was often carried around the villages after Smrtka was drown; at each house, young people announced with rhymes and songs that winter was over, received some goodies in return and held a feast from the gifts they had passed down.”

Saint George comes,

Takes out his keys,

We know;

Unlocks the earth

That flowers and trees might grow

Death is floating far way,

Lovely Spring is on its way.

From Wikipedia:

Letečko (other names: letočko, letko, leto, lesola, lésola, máj, májik, hájik) is a green twig used in spring processions by girls, which symbolized the coming spring and the awakening of life. In accordance with the ideas in the traditional peasant environment, it was necessary to ensure the arrival of spring and ensure favorable conditions for obtaining a living through ritual actions. Adolescent girls with a letečko would go around the village houses, wishing for health in the family and prosperity in the economy, for which they were rewarded in kind or financially. It was either a separate ceremony or these processions took place immediately after the destruction of Morana , a symbol of winter and death. The processions took place from the fourth Sunday of Lent to St. George's Day (April 24) and were accompanied by songs:

We bring you May,

under the green grove,

to make the grass grow

above the knee.

We planted sparks,

they didn't want us to grow

without God's grace.

Saint Peter, Saint John,

Bring us a jug of wine.

Saint George is calling,

the earth opens,

all kinds of flowers,

until the mountain shines,

rose, violet.

And you, dear mother,

Bring us an egg,

because one, because two,

but it will subside a little.”

– a song from the area around Hlohovec

Dear summer, dear,

Where have you been for so long?

In the basement on a bench

in a red rose.

Be there, grandmothers, cheerful,

But we'll bring you the flyer (letečko).

Whose new house is this?

We have a new summer.

and to you, Mr. Farmer,

We sing beautifully.”

– song from the village of Láb

Nowadays, these parades belong mainly to children's folklore ensembles.

top 5 places you'd like to visit :) (and would love to hear why you want to visit them)

The Škocjan Caves. I just have always heard that in terms of Karst landscapes, this is one of the more astonishing ones. I've only seen a few images but I find myself endlessly interested in the whole of it.

The Genex Tower, but also just Belgrade in general. I dunno exactly why I just have always wanted to see Belgrade :P & lately there's been a film photographer on Instagram whose work I enjoy that talks about the Genex Tower a lot in recent months, so I've become sort of just interested by exposure I guess!

Val-Mez, CZ & Hlohovec, SK. My family was from both places so I've always wanted to just go and... see them really.

The Lascaux caves :]! I would love to see the art and just. experience it. I think it's so sincerely beautiful that humanity has always been creating visual representations of literally anything. I just love humanity and really love the works in that cave system!

Ape Cave in Washington State. My brother really likes it there and once promised to take me there the next time I go visit him so I just really would love to someday go visit him again and do that lol :P

A Rare Bronze Age Dagger Found in Slovakia

During their time off, relaxing by the River Váh, near Hlohovec, a local came across an object that they found interesting. Only when they returned home, did they discover that it was an archaeological find and paid a visit to the nearest museum.

Similar finds should be handed over to the regional offices of the Monuments Board of the Slovak Republic.

The local had discovered a short sword, or a long dagger, with a length of almost 26 cm and a weight of almost 150 g, the Trnava Office of the Monuments Board said. Its handle from organic material has not been preserved. Only traces of the rivets remained.

Potential link between two weapons

Similar short swords have been found in the Danube basin, stretching from southern Germany to the Vojvodina province in Serbia.

They are typical for the emerging Tumulus culture, which began to dominate the central European region in the 16th century BC, that is during the Middle Bronze Age,” said Matúš Sládok from the Trnava Office.

In the past, a similar sword was discovered in Včelince, near Rimavská Sobota, where it was part of discovered bronze objects.

Long daggers from the Early and Middle Bronze Ages are often found in richly filled tombs, as part of mass discoveries, and often in rivers. The sword found in the River Váh may have fallen into the water as part of the cult, but it may also be a lost object, Sládok said. The dagger's owner could have lost it, for example, when wading the river, he added.

At the end of the Early Bronze Age the first metal swords began to appear in Central Europe, as a separate invention that most likely evolved from long bronze daggers. The sword from the Váh could serve as a very interesting developmental link between these two types of weapons, Sládok argued.

More Váh finds

The sword is the fourth find from the River Váh in the Trnava Region since 2002, which has been reported and handed over, the year the Monuments Office of the Slovak Republic was established.

In the Váh, people have found a bronze blade from a dagger on a stick from the early Bronze Age, iron semi-finished products dating to the 2nd century BC - 2nd century AD, and a fragment of a millstone.
