Muslim influences, so the names of gods often correspond to the names of saints.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>These divinities play a more or less important role in the epic of the semi-divine race of the Nartes. This mythology influenced or was influenced to different degrees by the legends of neighboring peoples, especially the Tatars, <a href=\"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/circus-mythology\/\">Circassians<\/a>, Chechens and Ingush. Pagan myths and cults have survived through worship and oral traditions despite the influence of monotheisms in the region.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>These stories were then transcribed in writing since the second half of the 19th century.<sup>e<\/sup>\u00a0century and possible comparisons with other <a href=\"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/\">mythologies<\/a> Indo-Europeans have since been reported. The vast majority of French-speaking literature on Ossetian mythology was brought to us by the French philologist and comparatist Georges Dum\u00e9zil, who recognized in this mythology a heritage of the religion of the <a href=\"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/scythian-mythology\/\">scythians<\/a>, of which the Ossetians would be the descendants.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"
