I noticed a possible connection between folk tales from Lithuania and Turkiye. I found these tales thanks to Pinterest.com
There seems to be a strong similarity between the Turkish story of the Shah Maran and the Lithuanian story, Eglé the Queen of Serpents.

I do not guarantee anything. I may or may not research this further. By the way, I am not afraid of snakes. Well, not very much, maybe just a little. Now that it is deepest winter, I can explore this subject without any worries. I'm curious enough to go on with this because the other day I noticed that the Yazidi peoples may still know how to use snakes as medicine ??? It was just a brief mention on a Wikipedia page about Yazidis.
Again, I am not a pagan. But I study pagan things (including Yazidi beliefs) because they are very ancient. I want to know what our earliest ancestors thought about.
