Such a motif was also found on the back of a 19th century sled where the Sun, in the form of a circle, is in the palace and two Zoryas stand in the exit, and on a peasant rushnyk from the Tver region where Zoryas on horseback rides up to the Sun, one is red and the other is green. These motifs are also confirmed by the Russian saying "The sun will not rise without the Morning Zoryushka". There are also darkened suns on this relief, possibly dead suns appearing in Slavic folklore. On a carved and painted gate of a Slovak peasant estate (village of Očová): on one of the pillars is carved the Morning Zora, with a golden head, above her is a glow, and even higher is the Sun, which rolls along an arched road, and on the other pillar is carved the Evening Zora, above it is a setting sun. Similar images to the one from the Psalter and the Nashik appear in various parts of Slavic lands, e.g. The Sun in the form of a wheel appears in the Indo-Aryan Rigveda, or the Norse Edda, as well as in folklore: during the annual festivals of the Germanic peoples and Slavs, they lit a wheel which, according to medieval authors, was supposed to symbolize the sun. Some other bas-reliefs depict two goddesses of the dawn, Ushas and Pratyusha, and the Sun, accompanied by Dawns, appears in several hymns. The bas-relief depicts two women: one using a torch to light the circle of the Sun, and the other expecting it at sunset. A very similar motif was found in a cave temple from the 2nd or 3rd century AD in Nashik, India. This should be interpreted as the Morning Zorya releasing the Sun on its daily journey, and at sunset the Evening Zorya awaits to meet the Sun. This stripe ends in another woman's right hand, in green, signed as "evening zora", with a bird emerging from her left sleeve. One of them, fiery red, signed as "morning zora", holds a red sun in her right hand in the form of a ring, and in her left hand she holds a torch resting on her shoulder, ending in a box from which emerges a light green stripe passing into dark green.

Chludov's Novgorod Psalter of the late 13th century contains a miniature depicting two women. These images date back to ancient concepts from the initially fetishistic (the Sun in the form of a ring or circle) to the later anthropomorphic. Zarubin undertook a comparison between Slavic folklore and the Indo-Aryan Rigveda and Atharvaeda, where images of the Sun and its companions, the Dawns, have been preserved. Įvening and morning Zoras from Chludov Psalter In the Eastern Slavic tradition of zagovory she represents the supreme power that a practitioner appeals to. She lives in the Palace of the Sun, opens the gate for him in the morning so that he can set off on a journey through the sky, guards his white horses, she is also described as a virgin. She is often depicted as the sister of the Sun, the Moon, and Zvezda, the Morning Star with which she is sometimes identified. Although Zorya is etymologically unrelated to the Proto-Indo-European goddess of the dawn *H₂éwsōs, she shares most of her characteristics. Depending on tradition, she may appear as a singular entity, often called "The Red Maiden", or two or three sisters at once. "Dawn" also many variants: Zarya, Zara, Zaranitsa, Zoryushka, etc.) is a figure in Slavic folklore, a feminine personification of dawn, possibly goddess.
