Page "Slavic mythology" Paragraph 9

Major works include a chronicle of Thietmar of Merseburg from the beginning of the 11th century, who described a temple in the city of Riedegost ( Radegast ) where the great deity Zuarasic ( Svarožič ) was worshipped.

According to Thietmar, this was the most sacred place in the land of pagan Slavs, and Svarožič was their most important deity.
