Armenian Demons Called Kaj: Image and Name

Արմեն Պետրոսյան · 2018

Catalogue summary

An ethno-cultural and etymological study catalogs the Armenian kaj, their leader Vahagn, mountain dwellings, ritual behavior, and parallels in Iranian and Indian traditions.

Why this matters

The source links Armenian demonology and vocabulary to wider Indo-European myth, giving a bounded entry point into ancient religious imagination.
