The winged horse is one of the sacred symbols of Turkmenistan. This nation has always worshiped and glorified the strength and power of this animal. And it is not by chance that this image is still alive, because the country was frequently attacked by aggressive invaders. This strong intention of people not to cry for mercy yet to fight till the very victory like tenacious warriors did on the numerous battlefields, still remains in national character. Many years have passed since these belligerent invasions. Today Turkmenistan is an independent and free country where Moslem and Orthodox worlds coexist. The interrelations between these two religions and their status in the country are analytically highlighted by the author of this book.
