CIT_FINN_KALMA_KALEVA ENT_FINN_KALMA SRC_KALEVALA The Kalevala The Kalevala It would seem that the earliest beliefs of the Finns regarding the dead centred in this: that their spirits remained in their graves until after the complete disintegration of their bodies, over which Kalma, the god of the tombs, with his black and evil daughter, presided.
