| 2334 | ENT_ARM_ASTGHIK | syncretized_with | ENT_APHRODITE | high | Agathangelos §22 explicitly equates Astghik with Aphrodite. Khorenatsi I.15 describes her Vardavar festival — a water-pouring and dove-releasing celebration — features directly parallel to Aphrodite's cult symbols (dove, water, love). The Ashtishat place name ("city of Ashtart") reveals the deeper Semitic Astarte layer that underlies the Armenian Aphrodite equation. | SRC_AGATHANGELOS_HISTORY | reviewed | PER_ARM_PAGAN |
