A legend
In Slavic folklore, Baba Yaga (or Baba Jaga) is a witch with beady eyes, stringy hair, and a long nose covered with warts. She lived somewhere in Russia inside a hut perched on chicken legs. The hut was surrounded by human skulls which Baba Yaga received by devouring people. She would fly through the air inside a pot. She flew around in a giant mortar, (a mixing bowl) pushing herself through the air with the pestle, and behind her was a broom, sweeping away all trace of her travels. She usually ate women or children.
The Polish word for grandma is "babcia".
