Hey, I was reading a pdf here on the body in south slav magic, but can't find it anymore. I thought it was in the Academic folder. Did it disappear or am I retarded?

>>3371368
Lemme look, it may have been shifted into another folder when I reconsolidated Shamanism.
>>
>>3371368
>>3371375
Nope, it's still in "Academic":
"Human Body in Southern Slavic Folklore", right about halfway through the list.
