This study contends that folk stories emerge from and reflect actual practices, challenging anthropocentric and idealist interpretations. Folk stories are not stories about humans only. Rather than being human-centered and human-specific, these stories arise from the interactions of diverse beings, objects, and symbols that constitute the fabric of society. Crucially, folk stories underscore the entangled nature of sociality by emphasizing the agency of non-human actants, such as flutes, arrows, pitchers, and trees, alongside beings like horses, cows, buffaloes, and dogs. Together these shape and sustain stories and societies. Building on this perspective, this study further argues for the dynamic and non-fixed nature of culture and sociality.
