@ -14,7 +14,7 @@ But… Where does Easter come from? Is its origin linked with Christianity?
Short answer: definitely not.
The name, as Wikipedia [explains](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter#Etymology), comes from the Old Germanic pagan goddess [Ostara](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%92ostre), who was widely known through all Europe with slightly different names.
To put it simple, she was a goddess of Spring.
About *her origins*, though, we probably could go back **10,000 years ago**: as frequently happens in European traditions, we can find the roots in Slavic pantheon(s).[^1] As we [already told](articles/pagan-gods-trinity/), these gods had several "forms" and names according to the cycle of the seasons.

[Austeja](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Lithuanian_gods_and_mythological_figures), also called "**The Weaver**" or "**The Bee Goddess**", was a Spring deity.
Bees were told to be her messengers because her voice could be heard in their hum.
