 abstract={An analysis of the source and interpretation base for the so-called masks from Opole is the prime objective of this article. These objects became a part of studies on the religion of the Western Slavs in pre-Christian times and quickly took on iconic status. However, the virtually uncritical acceptance of the identification of these two artifacts, proposed more than half a century ago Helena Cehak-Hołubowiczowa, is surprising at the very least. None of the later researchers questioned the findings, thus entrenching the research paradigm. The masks from Opole have also been used to develop a variety of ideas concerning pagan rites in Polish lands in early medieval times. The article undertakes a revision of currently accepted interpretations and a critique of theories put forward on their basis},
