A historiography of the study of Lithuanian calendar holidays rather than a study of the holidays themselves, which is what this site needed: it documents who attached pre-Christian content to the annual festivities, when, and under what conditions, without asserting continuity in either direction. Read in full from the publisher's own open-access PDF. Author, title, year, volume, issue, pages and DOI confirmed against the journal's article record; the publisher line is the journal's own description of its publishing arrangement, taken from its About page, which also gives ISSN 2613-7844 (print) and 2613-7852 (online) and states that the yearbook is peer reviewed. Note the scope limit: this is LITHUANIAN ethnology. It does not settle anything about Latvian Jāņi.
