Description

The Kalevala is Finland's National Epic, featuring stories from traditional Finnish and Karelian rune songs. These runolaulu (rune songs) were compiled by Elias Lönnrot into the Kalevala. These stories make up traditional Finnish folklore and mythology.

This shirt features the three main heroes:

Steadfast Old Väinämöinen – the primordial bard, sage, and adventurer.

Ilmarinen: The Eternal Blacksmith – the forger of magical objects such as the Dome of the Sky and Sampo.

Wanton Lemminkäinen: The Farminded – also known as "Ahti Saarelainen", the reckless warrior who swoons maidens and was resurrected after dying.

These three heroes travel through the lands of Kalevala, Pohjola (the Northlands), Tuonela (the Underworld), and other realms during their adventures in the Kalevala.

Show your appreciation of the Kalevala, Finnish culture, or just mythology in general with this beautiful and comfortable t-shirt.
