2297 Svarog ENT_SLAV_SVAROG parent_of Dažbog ENT_SLAV_DAZBOG medium Hypatian Chronicle Malalas gloss (12th c.) states: "after [Svarog] reigned his son Dažbog" — making Dažbog the son of Svarog in the Slavic divine genealogy. Classified medium because this is a late Byzantine literary equation. Brückner (1918) pp. 85-105.

2403 Stribog ENT_SLAV_STRIBOG aligned_with Dažbog ENT_SLAV_DAZBOG medium In the Primary Chronicle's list of Vladimir I's 980 CE Kiev pantheon, Stribog and Dazbog are listed adjacently: "And Vladimir began to reign alone in Kiev, and set up idols on the hill outside the castle... Perun of wood with a head of silver and a mustache of gold, and Khors, Dazbog, Stribog, Simargl, and Mokosh" (PVL s.a. 980). The consistent co-listing of Stribog and Dazbog in both the Chronicle and (in paraphrase) in the Igor Tale suggests they function as complementary aspects of Slavic sky-force theology: Dazbog governs solar prosperity and divine bestowal of gifts (his name likely means "giving god"), while Stribog governs the wind domain (the Igor Tale's "grandsons of Stribog" phrase implies he is ancestral to the winds). Some scholars propose a semantic pairing of Dazbog/Stribog as two halves of the sky divine complex — solar wealth-giving vs. aerial wind-force. Confidence medium: the pairing is well-attested, but the exact theological relationship between the two deities is disputed; the alignment here is based on the consistent literary co-presence and complementary domain logic.

2405 Khors ENT_SLAV_KHORS aligned_with Dažbog ENT_SLAV_DAZBOG high Khors and Dazbog are the two solar deities of the Slavic tradition, consistently listed together in the Primary Chronicle (s.a. 980 CE: "Khors, Dazbog") and distinguished by domain: Khors (from Iranian *xvarnah- "solar radiance / divine glory" via Alanic/Sarmatian transmission) represents the sun disc as a physical/celestial entity, while Dazbog (Slavic "giving god") represents the sun in its aspect as divine bestower of prosperity and gifts to humans. The Igor Tale distinguishes them in the poetic passage "Vseslav spanned the path of great Khors" (referring to the prince's night journey faster than the sun's circuit) and the separate "the sons of Dazbog" phrase applied to the Rus' people — Khors as the disc traversing the sky, Dazbog as the divine father of the people. Their persistent co-listing in the Primary Chronicle and their complementary solar-domain theology makes their alignment the most secure relationship in the Slavic orphan cluster.

7592 Dabog ENT_SSL_DABOG aligned_with Dažbog ENT_SLAV_DAZBOG high Dabog is the South-Slavic (Serbian) cognate/reflex of the East-Slavic sun-god Dažbog; same theonym (modern cognate => aligned_with since cognate_of is unavailable).
