Abstract:
This article contains information about the objects of Christian worship from the famous Rekom sanctuary in the Tsei gorge of mountain Ossetia. In the messages of travelers and scientists, other sources of the XIX – early XX centuries we find numerous references to this category of things were kept in Rekom – the most revered Ossetian sanctuary. There are also Christian relics from Rekom in the museums» collections. They testify to the veneration of the sanctuary by both adherents of traditional beliefs and Ossetian Christians. The fact of the simultaneous presence of traditional religious offerings and Christian objects in the Rekom speaks of the religious tolerance of the Ossetians and the exclusive sacred significance of Rekom.
Keywords: Sanctuary Rekom, Ossetia, Christianity in Ossetia, religious views of Ossetians, Vladimir Tolstoy, Praskovya Uvarova, Vsevolod Miller, Evgeniya Pchelina
