Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue
Abstract
The article points out that the horseshoe became the basis of the Rurik Dynasty’s Bident. This thing acted as an attribute of economic, legal and political identification of the owner of a horse. A suggestion was made that a Bident could come to Russia from a territory where a horse cult and a friendly culture were present. The region that meets this requirement could be the Baltic.
