Removed the sentence "In other cases, devotional objects might have mixed symbols of different religion, for example popularizing and entrenching pagan elements in Christianity, resulting in objects such images of Black Madonna.[1]" because the cited source does not say what this sentence does. The source says
"Cult statues and icons of the Virgin and the saints are also essentially ‘popular’ images and may in some cases have perpetuated pagan and folklore imagery." and then follows the next sentence, "Images of the ‘Black Virgin’, often considered indicative of some primitive devotion, can probably be explained in terms of the respect for an old image that could not be touched."
