Nane ((アルメニア語:Նանե), ''Nanė''; (グルジア語:ნანა), ''Nana''; (ブルガリア語:Нане), ''Nanė''; (ロシア語:Нанэ), ''Nanė'', (ペルシア語:ننه)) was an Armenian pagan mother goddess. She was the goddess of war and wisdom. Nane looked like a young beautiful woman in the clothing of a warrior, with spear and shield in hand,〔(С. Б. Арутюнян. Армянская мифология )〕 like the Greek Athena, with whom she identified in the Hellenic period.〔http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Gazetteer/Places/Asia/Armenia/_Texts/KURARM/34 *.html〕 She has also been referred to as ''Hanea, Hanea, Babylonian Nana, Sumerian Nanai or Sumerian Nanai.''〔“Armenian Mythology - Mythology Dictionary.” Accessed September 15, 2015. http://www.mythologydictionary.com/armenian-mythology.html.〕 ==Early religion== Though originally worshipping nature, Armenia slowly moved to a Zoroastrian like religion, following the path of truth while believing that one must do the right thing, simply because it is the right thing to do. Soon after this new religion, they formed gods of their own around images of everyday hardworking, ambitious and kind people similar to themselves. The created gods quickly grew to be idolized and worship was cult like involving rituals and sacrifices.〔Ananikian, Mardiros Harootioon.
