dc.description.abstractDocuments an annual (21st of May) purification ritual honoring St. Constantine and St. Helen, performed in northern Greece by Thracians. The ritual includes animal sacrifice, Christian blessings, trance and fire dancing. As the ritual has become a popular tourist attraction, the thesis primarily examines the cultural commodification of the ritual and the ritual objects. Fieldwork was undertaken in Lagadhas, a town in the north of Greece.en
