2344	ENT_FINN_VAINAMOINEN	aligned_with	ENT_ORPHEUS	medium	Väinämöinen and Orpheus share the structural role of the shaman-bard whose music has cosmic power — both charm nature with their playing, both descend to the realm of the dead to retrieve something (Väinämöinen descends to Tuonela; Orpheus to Hades), and both are associated with mysteries of death and immortality. Pentikäinen (1999) pp. 150-155 notes the parallel. The alignment is structural and comparative, not a historical equation; both figures draw on widespread shaman-bard archetype patterns.
