Episode 6: Jaakko Puntus, the Shepherd Warrior | Libretto Short Stories

from Chronicles from the Lake Ladoga Shores · host Libretto Orchestra

Was he man or giant? Warrior or builder? Jaakko Puntus left his mark across the Karelian landscape—furrows platform-high that seem impossible to plow, bridges across impossible terrain, and the legend of a shepherd who became a giant-killer. His name echoes from Vakokangas to Lippumäki, the eternal guardian standing watch over a land that still remembers his strength and cunning.🎵 Libretto Orchestra Music Albums: Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube🌐 libretto.fi#folktales #folkfore #KarelianFolklore #laatokka #LakeLadoga #laatokankansantaruja  #KansantarujaLaatokanluoteisrannikolta #TheodorSchwindt
