� The Advent of Christianity and its Impact on the Legacy of Zoroastrianism in GeorgiaWhat happened to Zoroastrianism in Georgia following the arrival of Christianity?
Join us at SOAS for the Pallonji Shapoorji Mistry Annual Lecture, where Sarah Stewart, Reader Emeritus at SOAS and co-founder of the SOAS Shapoorji Pallonji Institute of Zoroastrian Studies, explores the complex history of Zoroastrianism in Georgia and the Caucasus.
Drawing on evidence from antiquity, the lecture considers what Zoroastrianism may have looked like on the periphery of the Iranian world, its relationship with local traditions, and its gradual disappearance from the Georgian historical narrative following the establishment of Christianity in the 4th century CE.
