Ivan Modunkaev, Zul
In his childhood, Ivan recalls, they made candles in the form of small boats from dough. Such candle-boats were made for each member of his family. Also, two extra candle-boats were made for the ancestors. Grass called betk ovs was erected vertically on each boat-candle. Ivan looked forward to Zul, because the candle-boats that were fried in oil were very delicious. After Zul, men were not supposed to go far from their homes for several days.
