The oak (ozols) is the most common 'vecs koks' in folklore, representing male strength. The linden (liepa) is the female counterpart, often described as a 'vecs koks' with healing powers. Trees were believed to have souls. Cutting down a 'vecs koks' without a good reason was thought to bring bad luck. Latvians often name their farmsteads (mājas) after old trees found on the property.
