Ivan Tsarevich realizes his wife and children are alive, punishes Egi-baba, and brings his family back to his kingdom. Finland Tale type 707 is known in Finland as Kolme kultaista poikaa ("Three Golden Boys"). In a late 19th century article, Finnish folklorist Antti Aarne noted that the story was found "all over" Finland, but it was "especially common" in the eastern part of the country, namely, in Arkhangelsk and Olonets.
