    "The horned Slavic god Veles, is one of few Slavic gods for which evidence of worship can be found in all Slavic nations. The Primary Chronicle, a historical record of the early Eastern Slavic state, is the earliest and most important record, mentioning a god named Volos several times. Here, Volos is mentioned as god of cattle and peasants, who will punish oath-breakers with diseases, the opposite of Perun who is a described as a ruling god of war who punishes by death in battle
    Veles' main practical function was protecting the cattle of Slavic tribes. Often he was referred to as skotji bog, meaning "cattle-god". One of his attributes, as mentioned, were horns of bull or a ram, and probably also sheep's wool. As stated already, Veles was a god of magic, and in some folk accounts, the expression presti vunu (weaving wool) or, particularly, crnu vunu presti (weaving of black wool) stands as allusion to magical crafts. In some of surviving Koledo songs, Koledari sing they are coming along and "weaving black wool".
    Veles also regularly sent spirits of the dead into the living world as his heralds. Festivals in honour of him were held near the end of the year, in winter, when time was coming to the very end of world order, chaos was growing stronger, the borders between worlds of living and dead were fading, and ancestral spirits would return amongst the living. This was the ancient pagan celebration of Velja noc (Great Night), the relic of which still persists amongst many Slavic countries in folk customs of Koleda, a kind of combination of carnival and Halloween, which can happen anywhere from Christmas up to end of February. Young men, known as koledari or vucari would dress long coats of sheep's wool and don grotesque masks, roaming around villages in groups and raising a lot of noise. They sang songs saying they travelled a long way, and they are all wet and muddy, an allusion of the wet underworld of Veles from which they came as ghosts of dead. The master of any house they visited would welcome them warmly and presented them with gifts. This is an example of Slavic shamanism, which also indicates Veles was a god of magic and wealth. The gifts given to koledari were probably believed to be passed onto him (which makes him very much like a dragon hoarding treasure), thus ensuring good fortune and wealth for the house and family through entire year. As seen in descriptions from the Primary Chronicle, by angering Veles one would be stricken by diseases."--WIKIPEDIA

    In the Istria peninsula along the northern part of Adriatic Coast there is ancient fesitival where the locals dress up in horned costumes with bells around their waist called "zvonchari" (men with bells) and walk from village to village to scare away evil spirits and spread fertility by scattering ashes.



    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6x4q_H12yJY

    Many of the ancient dieties were horned to represent animals, especially cattle which were greatly valued. It is therefore perhaps no coincidence that Christians always depict the epitomy of evil "The Devil" as having horns.

    It would be intresting to know whether the god has anything to do with the naming of the Roman light javelin units as Velites or Veles, who wore headdresses of wolf fur. As the name is strongly associated with the ancient Indo-European word "wel" meaning woolly or hairy and from where the English word wool comes from and volos which is the Russian name for hair.. Velox I think means swift in Latin from where the origin of the name Velites is thought to stem from, but it could have been a play on names by the Romans..
