Wooden doll Panki – whole, undivided and strong.
Russian folk dolls panki actuated from a single piece of any tree. This, as a rule, animals, birds or humans treated rather roughly, a shovel!
Initially northern dolls -panki most likely were pagan idols and pagan rituals meant for magic, but even with the advent of the northern lands of orthodoxy, they have retained their archaic form and meaning.
Complex patterns and murals did. Panks were denied details.
Facial features her in the old days either absent or barely were planned depressions and incisions. So the master acted quite deliberately: thus provides protection against invasion of strangers into a doll evil spirits, which, according to pagan beliefs, can penetrate the eyes, mouth, nose and ears.
