ENT_SCYTH_TABITI Tabiti   Scythian Goddess High Deity hearth; fire; divine queen; Hestia-equivalent; Scythian royalty; oaths       B           Supreme deity of the Scythians; equated by Herodotus with Greek Hestia (Histories 4.59.2). Goddess of the sacred fire and the domestic hearth. Her primacy over all other Scythian gods — ahead of Papaeus (Zeus-equivalent) — is unusual by the standards of Indo-European parallels and has been explained as a reflection of the fire-altar's central role in steppe nomadic life. Name possibly from Iranian *tápati (she who warms); Cunliffe (2019) p. 203. deity
