Thanks Greg Singh and Hama,
For Hama, I cannot remember anymore why I add mari people in the map. Did It came from some book or did I add it, because Wolga-finnen where part of Idel-Ural legion. The origen or ancestors of finnish and maris are the same, and when one look pictures of Wolga-finnen legionaries, some look like many actual finnish people. Interesting the mention about mari paganism.
For Greg Singh, thanks for the name of the headdress. Except it is very confusing when reading about it in internet. Necessary to read more. I think nobody is really sure, but it seems that in the photo they are Tatars, maybe of Idel-Ural legion. As it mention about Taqiyah, turkistan people wore a turban over it, like one can see in photos about Ostturkisher Waffenverband der SS.They also wore SS runes collar patches in the late stage of war. In this photo the prayer seems to wear also SS runes, but never heard that Idel-Ural leginaries wore them.
Could these two photos be from same occasion?
Thanks
Arto
