    "Baba Yaga" is a character in the Russian fairy tale "Vasilissa the Beautiful". It is a tale that has similarities to Cinderella. It is a matter of conjecture as to which tale came first, or if the similarities are merely coincidence. The original 'Babba Yagga' is believed to be derived from Mongol folklore during the Mongolian occupation of the region. The following link gives the story of "Vasilissa the Beautiful".
