Khors is a Slavic God of the Sun and brother of Diviya, Goddess of the Moon. The Sun had several gods, but Kolyada, Yarilo or Kupalo embodied its power at different times of the year, and Khors was the very movement of the sun's disk across the firmament.
Every day in his chariot he rushes across the sky, disappearing at eveningfall, but his path does not end – he illuminates another world. That is why the dance dedicated to the Khors became a round dance, which was a circle, that is, the route of the sun in the Universe, which was in the Slavic worldview.
Along with other supreme deities, Khors is mentioned in the Primary Chronicle. The chronicler Nestor notes that the idol was erected to him by Prince Vladimir near Kiev. Later, this temple appeared several more times in other sources.
