High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Nart sagas are a series of tales originating from the North Caucasus. They form the basic mythology of the tribes in the area, including Ossetian, Circassian, Abkhaz, Abazin, Karachay-Balkar and Chechen-Ingush folklore. The Narts themselves are a race of giants and heroes. The first written account of the material is due to the Kabardian author Shora Begmurzin Nogma (written in Russian 1835-1843, published posthumously in 1861, German translation by Adolf Berge in 1866). The stories exist in the form of prose tales as well as epic songs. The word "Nart" is probably of Iranian origin, from a Proto-Indo-European root that is the source of words meaning 'man,' 'hero,' in various Indo-European languages, and all the Nart corpora have an ancient Iranian core, inherited from the Scythians, Sarmatians, and Alans (the Alans being the ancestors of the Ossetians). However, they also contain abundant local North Caucasian accretions of great antiquity, which sometimes reflect an even more archaic past.
