2452	ENT_DAC_DERZELAS	aligned_with	ENT_THRA_ZALMOXIS	medium	Derzelas and Zalmoxis share the chthonic-vitalistic function characteristic of Dacian-Thracian religion: Zalmoxis promises immortality and receives the dead in his underground hall; Derzelas presides over vital abundance and health with a chthonic dimension. Both are attested in the Thracian-Dacian cultural zone and represent the indigenous Dacian synthesis of chthonic death-power with vital life-force. The alignment is functional and regional rather than attested by an explicit ancient identification. Popov (1989) discusses Derzelas's chthonic dimension in relation to the broader Thracian divine complex.	SRC_HERODOTUS_HISTORIES	reviewed	PER_THRA_IRON_AGE
