Old Belief was a form of Slavic belief that developed mainly in Western Slovenia, especially in Posočje. It is recognisable for its tradition in the form of stories collected by Pavel Medvešček - Klančar. At the same time, folklore, which is not understood as religion, was also being created in the area of Western Slovenia. In my thesis I compared both traditions and presented the motifs that appear in both. I also noted the differences that distinguish the motifs in the traditions.
