Votra
The vatër (or votër; Albanian definite form: vatra or votra) is the domestic hearth in Albanian culture. The fire of the domestic hearth (zjarri i vatrës) holds divine attributes in Albanian beliefs, being considered the sustainer of the continuity between the world of the living and that of the dead, and ensuring the continuity of the tribe (fis) from generation to generation. In Albanian tradition fire (zjarri) has been evidently deified as Enji, the deity to whom Thursday – e enjte – was dedicated in the Albanian language.
