Ancient Deer Skull Mask dated to be over 11,000 years old. The mesolithic people of Star Carr carved eye holes into the crania of dead deer.
The skulls of 33 of these ancient masks were found in 2018 in Yorkshire, Northern England.

Silvesterklaus comes on New Year’s Eve in Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Switzerland.
Locals dress up and go door to door wishing happy new year by singing a traditional yodel. They wear massive bells so you can hear them coming.

The Calennig Apple is the Welsh tradition of decorating an apple with cloves or nuts and greenery, then standing it on a tripod of twigs. It is given as a gift or kept in the home to ensure good luck and prosperity during the coming year.

Blwyddyn newydd dda!
Happy new year!

In Greek tradition, one throws a pomegranate against the floor or wall on New Year’s Day to signify health, happiness, and luck for the new year.

In Scotland the first person to enter the house after midnight on NewYearsEve is said to affect the fortune of the household for the year ahead. They should come bearing gifts, traditionally being a lump of coal, a black bun, shortbread and whisky, and be a dark-haired male. Someone with fair hair is said to bring bad luck, believed to be a throwback to the Viking invasion when a fair-haired male on the doorstep meant anything but good luck!

My fellow ethnic Europeans, although we are not physically together during these winter celebrations, we are together in spirit. I wish you all a happy New Year! This coming year let’s dig even deeper into our true history, and unravel more hidden truths about our people, about our past.

Let’s all continue to honor our ancestors, and our gods, and never let the flame go out. Let’s continue to counteract the actions of those who wish to deliberately tamper with our history, our folklore, and mythology, those who deny that ethnic Europeans are included in the list of indigenous people of earth, those who want to erase us as a people. And we do this by continuing with our independent research, and spreading awareness, by educating people about European heritage, European history, Folklore, Mythology, and our NATIVE TRIBAL NATURE-BASED SPIRITUALITY.

I love you all. Be well, and happy new year, Happy Kolyada! It’s not necessary for you to be an ethnic European to be part of this, because as long as you are someone who respects your own ancestors, and your own heritage, and you respect the sovereignty of indigenous people everywhere, which of course includes ethnic Europeans, then we are on the same side.

Bust of Janus, Roman god of doors, gates and transitions. Fitting as we say farewell to another year gone by and welcome the fresh start of a new one.

“The Road goes ever on and on / Down from the door where it began. / Now far ahead the Road has gone, / And I must follow, if I can.”
— The Fellowship of the Ring

Happy birthday JRR Tolkien!

This is a good little article that briefly introduces the reader to Christianization of European nations, and to the native faiths of Europeans prior to Christianization. However, this is only the top layers of the surface of this deep topic. There is so much more to this. These kinds of articles/blogs are good for the beginners, for those who have never independently studied Christianization of Europe, or the native, pre-Christian faiths of indigenous Europeans.
