| 2404 | Simargl ENT_SLAV_SIMARGL | aligned_with | Perun ENT_SLAV_PERUN | low | Simargl's only unambiguous attestation is as one of the eight deities in Vladimir I's 980 CE Kiev state pantheon (Primary Chronicle s.a. 980), where he is listed among the idols erected alongside Perun, Khors, Dazbog, Stribog, and Mokosh. As Perun was the undisputed head of this pantheon (his idol had a silver head and gold mustache, superior to the others), Simargl functioned as a member of Perun's divine assembly — a guardian/protective sacred figure within the thundergod's sovereignty sphere. The alignment is primarily one of divine assembly membership rather than shared attributes; Simargl's own domains (guardian of plants and seeds per some reconstructions; winged dog-guardian per iconography) are distinct from Perun's thunder/war domain. Confidence low: the alignment is inferred from co-listing in the 980 CE pantheon, not from explicit ancient equation or shared attributes. Simargl's connection to the Iranian Senmurv/Simurgh (proposed by Rybakov and others) would provide a more illuminating long-range alignment, but the Iranian entities are not currently in the DB. | Nestor (trad.), Povest' Vremennykh Let (Primary Chronicle), compiled c. 1113 CE; Laurentian redaction c. 1377 CE SRC_PRIMARY_CHRONICLE_PVL | reviewed | Slavic Pre-Christian Period PER_SLAV_PAGAN |
