Day of Remembrance
The most important holidays in the country are Orthodox. Believers celebrate them according to tradition. People honor the days of memory of saints and martyrs, go to the temple, pray for the repose of souls. September 15 is the feast of the Mamant Shepherd. A very interesting story this day.
In Russia, Mamant was known as the patron saint of sheep and goats. But this day was unlucky. People did not drive cattle out of the yard, as misfortune could happen to her. A rich table was set in each house; an abundance of goat milk dishes was amazing. Cottage cheese, cheese, milk stew - all this was prepared in advance according to old recipes, passing from mother to daughter.
Mamant Shepherd
Mamant and his parents, who belonged to a noble family, were revered in the church. During the persecution, they failed to hide from the attack. Rufina gave birth to a child and died, entrusting him to the Lord. Baby Mamant was brought up to a rich widow, who gave him love, affection, care and a good education. Most importantly, she instilled in him faith in Christianity, and he decided to become a preacher. The guy was eloquent and convincing, had many associates. But Emperor Aurelian was a pagan. He ordered to drown in the sea of Mamant, who carried faith in the people of the unwanted power. God saved the guy by not allowing him to drown in muddy waters. The preacher settled in the desert and founded a church there.
For centuries, on September 15, festivities and banquets have been held in honor of Mamant. In Russia he was called the Sheepdog, because he was the patron saint of sheep. Wild goats themselves came to him in the desert, and he always had fresh milk on the table.
Even on this day, snakes crawled to the surface and behaved aggressively. Therefore, people tried not to go into the forest and not to be near the water.
