Although it is a well-known fact that there are not many textual sources concerning early medieval Slavic culture and religion, some aspects of their customs and rituals can be reconstructed by referring to folkloristic materials. According to many scholars, Slavic folk culture (especially that of Eastern Slavs) has preserved some traces of pre-Christian practices, but it is important to maintain a careful approach to ethnographic sources and avoid far-reaching interpretations of archeological evidence in their light. In spite of methodological difficulties, by critically combining different categories of sources it seems possible to offer new interpretations of Slavic beliefs.engUznanie autorstwa-Użycie niekomercyjne-Bez utworów zależnych 3.0 Polskahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/sacrificesSlavic ritualsSlavic folkloreethnographic sourcesfolk beliefsSacrifices among the Slavs: Between Archeological Evidence and 19th Century FolkloreOfiary u Słowian: pomiędzy znaleziskami archeologicznymi a dziewiętnastowiecznym folkloremarticle
