The nature of Slavic pagan religion remains obscure. There is no consensus among scholars, and neo-pagan movements do not supply the demand for objective information. This work is a reexamination of the sources, particularly the medieval chronicles; it deconstructs the Slavic pagan pantheon, and presents Slavic gods as relatively late and artificial constructions, heavily influenced by Christian cultic figures. In parallel, the most ancient of Slavic totemic myths, based on the foundation legends of various Slavic tribes, are reconstructed.
