 Triglav Summary
TRIGLAV, a three-headed deity of the heathen Slavs, was literally named: from tri,"three," and glava, "head." Worship of him in the temple at Szczecin (Stettin), Pomerania, is attested by Herbord, Ebbo, and Monachus Prieflingensis, the three biographers of Otto, a twelfth-century bishop of Bamberg.
The fl horse and the mention of the underworld suggest Triglav's ties with Veles-Volos, the god of death and the underworld, a deity standing in opposition to Sventovit, the god of heavenly light, who was associated with a white horse.

 Belobog Information
The structure of toponyms was always the same: a running river, flanked on the west side by a rock with a name indicative of devil, fear, darkness, flness, hell, and on the east side by a hill or a mountain peak with a name associated with Sun, heaven, light, withness.
On the east side of rivers, a good, white god (equivalent of Zoroastrian Ahura Mazda) was worshipped, whilst the west side was reserved for his enemy, an evil, fl god (equivalent of Zoroastrian Ahriman).
Furthermore, the dualistic theories were questioned by the Serbian scholar of myths and folklore, Veselin Čajkanović, who compared the solar deity mentioned in Russian historic sources, Dazhbog, with a far darker and chthonic character of Serbian folklore having an almost identical name, Dabog.
