Name_eng:

White and black rams

Description:

Getting to the underworld, hero should take a white ram (horse) which would carry him back to earth. By chance, he takes the black one which carries him even deeper to the lower level of the underworld. Or the hero grabs not the right but the left horn of the animal and because of this gets to the wrong place

Name_rus:

Белый и черный бараны

Description_rus:

Попав в нижний мир, герой видит белого и черного коней, баранов и т.п. Белый вынесет в верхний мир, черный опустит еще ниже. Обычно герой случайно касается черного. Иногда упоминается третий – красный или серый - баран или конь. Либо герой хватается не за правый, а за левый рог животного, и в результате оказывается не там, куда он стремится
