“Ganander listed Mammotar as the patroness of stones and the mother of snakes, a witch who lives underground. He connected Mammelainen to Hecate. In some runic songs of the origin of snakes, snakes were born out of Syöjätär's spit, but there are also versions where a snake is born out of a bristle of the brush of Maanhuten maan emäntä”
