Agricultural legacy shapes plant diversity patterns in mountain grasslands of Maramureș and Bukovina
We investigated farming practices and grassland plant diversity patterns in the historical regions of Maramureș and Bukovina, located in the central Eastern Carpathians of Romania and Ukraine. We explored the influence of social and historical factors on recent grassland plant diversity, including changes and modifications in land use and grassland management practices. We used stratified random sampling to select 48 grassland parcels in eight vi…
Shepherding and the Dynamics of Intangible Heritage
Animal husbandry is one of the oldest human occupations, and it is well spread over the world. Most importantly, during the centuries of practising this occupation, humans have developed a solid understanding of the environment they were living in, developing, in time, a specific traditional ecological knowledge. This traditional knowledge is part of an intangible heritage that the communities have and cherish, although it is constantly changing …

Introduction. From Transcribing Orality to Oral Practices of Writing
This special issue of Martor problematizes the complex relationship between the written and the oral in the production of meaning that defines “traditions,” community and group relations, in different contexts of change (post-communism, migration, the use of hypermedia, storytelling and so on). It approaches the new ways orality is found in contemporary societies, but also open avenues for methodological discussions in ethnological research regar…
The Mute
The article focuses on the importance and meanings of the masked character of the Mute (Mutul), part of the Căluş ritual performed at the Whitsuntide feast in several regions of Romania and observed in two villages in Argeş County (Stolnici and Bârla). The Căluşari (the members of the Căluş group) perform specific dances meant, first of all, to cure the ritual illness inflicted by Iele (mythological feminine creatures) and also intended to provid…

Rebuilding Communities Through Their Heritage
The Meadow is the Mother of the Field.” Comparing Transformations in Hay Production in Three European Agroecosystems
This research compares the production of hay in three historical European agroecological systems: in northern Romania, central Sweden and eastern central France. We analyse hay production in relation to the entire production system, the local natural conditions, and the variety of ways by which hay production was transformed over time. We found broad commonalities, but also discovered significant differences in each of three historical trajectori…
Intangible Hay Heritage in Șurdești
This article presents the intangible heritage related to haymaking and shared by a specific community, namely the village of Șurdești in northern Romania. First the traditional knowledge associated with haymaking is introduced, as exemplified in the practices of cutting and gathering the hay. Secondly, the local beliefs associated with dangerous holidays (when haymaking is forbidden) are outlined. The two aspects of the intangible heritage are pr…
