Description
In the mythology of the Komi peoples, he personified the eddy currents of air that cause the rotation of water in reservoirs, snowdrift in the field in winter, and during haymaking, spreading already harvested hay throughout the meadow.
It was believed that he was afraid of tobacco and it was enough to pronounce the name of the plant aloud so that he would stop playing pranks in the meadow.
