Vasily Abaev, Ossetian Soviet linguist, suggested a Mongolian origin of nar, from Mongolian nara "sun", ultimately from ProtoAltaic: *ŋḕrá ("day, sun, light"). In Chechen the word nart means "giant". The central hero of the saga is the woman Satana. As it has been narrated in Karachay-Balkar Nart epos, Satanay Biyche is the daughter of the sun and the moon. Her father is the sun and her mother is the moon.
There is a clue about the meaning of her name in Karachay-Balkar Alan variants of Nart epos. While she was a little child, a witch has brought up her in a desolate island. Satanay has liked to play with coral stones in this island. The witch has seen that and has decided to name her as Satanay which has meant “little coral stone” (Aliyeva 1994: 299). In Divanu Lugatit Turk of Mahmud Kashgari we can find the same Turkic word “sata” which means coral (Atalay 1986: 496).
In Nart epos there is an extraordinary character which is known as “The Leader of Narts”. His name is Wuerzemec, who is the son of the Goddess of Sea in Adige Nart epos (Özbay 1990: 150). He is known as Wrijmeg, the son of Nart hero Ihsharteg in Osset Nart epos (Dumezil 2005: 34). His mother is the Goddess of Sea just like in Adige variant. In Karachay-Balkar Nart epos the leader of Narts is Örüzmek who has born from a comet which has fallen to the world. He has grown up in seven days with the milk of a wolf (Aliyeva 1994: 74). The name of Wuerzemec ~Wrijmeg~ Örüzmek reminds us the name of Uruz Beg, the son of Salur Kazan in Dede Korkut.
Those motifs of Nart epos are more connected to Dede Korkut and Oguzname than Homeros’ Odysseia.

From the Circassian Nart Epos:
"The Anthem of Nart Sosriqwe"
[«Нарт Сосрыкъуэ и пшыналъэ»; "Nart Sosriqwe yi Pshinalhe"]
There are many versions of this ancient chant that differ in the details but are unitary concerning the main theme. Two versions are presented hereby. The first, some three millennia old, is sung (in Kabardian) by Vladimir Bereghwn (Baragunov). The second is a modern rendition by the popular singer Sultan Uragan (Hezhiroqwe; Хьэжырокъуэ СулътIан).
Transcribed and interpreted by Amjad Jaimoukha. Produced by Sanjalay Jaimoukha.
Jaimoukha, Amjad, Circassian Culture and Folklore, London: Bennett and Bloom, 2010.
http://www.bennettandbloom.com/circassians.htm
This is perhaps the best known melody in the Nart Epos musical repertoire, and one of the most difficult to interpret, given the plenitude of archaic words and expressions, and the presence of at least two layers of semantics transposed in different eras. This gives rise to two interpretations; one archaic and somewhat obscure, and the other more recent and tractable.
This is the story of the epic duel between crafty Sosriqwe and guileless Toteresh on Mount Hereme. In the first meet, the invincible Toteresh son of Albech easily prevails over Sosriqwe, but (foolishly) grants him a stay of execution until the next day. 'He who forfeits tomorrow's encounter shall don the coward's cap!' he said as he let Sosriqwe go. Terrified, Sosriqwe goes back to his over-protective mother Satanay, who counsels him to use ruse to overcome his formidable adversary ('the lone rider, who's the terror of whole armies'), and she invokes black magic in aid of her pet son. In fact, the brash Nart was many a time saved from certain death by the intervention of the mighty sorceress. On the set date, Sosriqwe casts a dark mist over the sacred Mount, causing Toteresh to nod off. Sosriqwe makes his appearance with loud clamour issuing from the bells attached to the mane and tail of his steed, Tx'wezchey. Toteresh's horse takes fright, and is killed by the enraged Toteresh. As Sosriqwe stands over the fallen Toteresh with sword in hand, the supine Nart pleads for a third encounter. However, wily Sosriqwe refuses, cuts off Toteresh's head and returns triumphant to his mother.
Notes on the text:
The expression "мэIуху=shield" is an imposition on the original expression "мыIуэху", whose exact designation is mooted.
Schible is the Circassian God of Thunder.
Ariq (Арыкъ) is a toponym used in the Nart Epos. In current Kabardian, "арыкъ" designates "foothills".
"ПIинэ", "пIынэ": a little cap of rags worn usually by women for everyday use. If someone displays cowardice during a battle or a campaign, he is forced to don this cap, and keep it on until he accomplishes a feat of bravery or heroism, wherefore it is taken off by the womenfolk.
Qwehipsch [literally: Prince of the Ship; qweh (къуэхь)=ship in Old Circassian, pschi (пщы)=prince] is here interpreted as a proper name, although the original designation has been lost in the mist of time. This word is an atavism that was spared the phonetic differentiation undergone by Kabardian (from main Circassian, roughly in the last millennium), one feature of which was the generation of the "new" phoneme qx'w [кхъу; in such words as кхъуэ=pig, кхъуей=cheese, кхъухь=ship], which is not found in the other dialects of Circassian, having kept the original phoneme qw (къу) [къо=pig, къуае=cheese, къухьэ=ship].
In one interpretation, "Лъэдакъэ цыджэт" is rendered "[the Bay] had a shaggy fetlock"!
Toteresh is actually Sosriqwe's maternal cousin. Toteresh's mother, Barembipx'w (Барэмбыпхъу), is Lady Satanay's sister.
Some of the variations on the name of the fierce (but dim) lone rider: Toteresh (Тотэрэш), Totiresh (Тотырэш), Totresh (Тотрэш), T'ot'eresh (ТIотIэрэш).

Circassian Nart Rhapsody
Exhilarating music depicting some of the exploits of the mighty Circassian Narts, which would transport those familiar with the Nart Epos to wondrous Nartia – a fabulous world of superhuman heroes and strange creatures, mightful gods and goddesses, demigods and anti-gods, monsters and ogres, giants and Lilliputians, witches and warlocks, Caucasian Medusas and tree-ladies... A little-known fantastic universe that nevertheless would rival the high exoticism and endless rapture of Classical Greece.
“The Narts”:
I. Zhansherx’ (Жаншэрхъ. Challenging Nart game in which a massive wheel with cutting blades is rolled downhill, with the Nart braveheart
attempting to stop it in its tracks lower down the precipitous height).
II. Dance of the Archers.
III. Zhansherx’(reprise).
IV. Battle with the Eagles of the Heights.

From the Circassian Nart Epos:
«Лашын Нартыжьхэм Хуаусэ»
"Lashin Addresses the Great Narts"
Sung by Elena Pasch'e (Pacheva)
The role of Ashemez is sung by Ziramikw Qardenghwsch'
Translated by Amjad Jaimoukha
Produced by Sanjalay Jaimoukha
In this ancient song of satire Lashin in turn refuses Amisch, Lhepsch, Schebetiniqwe, Sosriqwe, Ariqschawe, Lhebitsezchey, Yex'wtenijizch, Schawey son of Qanzh, as suitors, but avows to accept Ashemez son of Ashe as a husband if he offers his solicitations. When Ashemez refuses her suit, she adds him to her list of non-suitors. The words of the song retain some of the archaic features of mediaeval Circassian.
One's appreciation of this song is infinitely amplified should one read about the Nart heroes targeted by the petulant shrew and their principal traits and vocations.
In Circassian folklore, the generic figure of Lashin plays the role of the satirist. She is often used to mock the enemies of the Circassians, as in "Kitai Khan and the Legend of Lashin" -- "The Mongol khan, Kitai, after a whirlwind tour of occupation and pillage, came to the frontiers of Circassia some time in the 13th century. The Circassians amassed an army to repel the invading army. In other versions it was the Kalmyk horde that had to be contended with. The Khan elected not to wage war against the Circassians; instead, he challenged one of their braves to a duel with his top wrestler, Qaisin. The Circassians picked up the gauntlet and chose a female commoner, Lashin, to do battle with the Mongol gladiator. According to legend, Lashin's father-in-law saw her lift a cow in anger and throw it some distance away. Fearing for his son, he decided to get rid of her, and when the opportunity arose, he volunteered his daughter-in-law for the challenge. At any rate, Lashin was disguised in male garb so as not to raise a hubbub. The legendary duel took place near river Chegem at a place still known as 'Lashinqey.' Lashin possessed extraordinary strength and she managed to prevail upon her foe within the hour. The Khan acknowledged the defeat, but he could hardly hide his ire. To rub a sore wound, the Circassians revealed the identity of their champion and dared Kitai to try again, this time against one of their real men! The Khan wisely decided to cut his losses and politely declined the offer. He presented the Circassians with many presents and went back home brooding."
Another legend has Lashin defeating the Russians in a battle during the Circassian-Russian War -- perhaps an invocation of the mythical figure to help the Circassians undo their mortal enemies, who took the nation to the brink of extinction.
Mount Lashinqey, located near the western edge of Lashinqey, a settlement on the left bank of the River Chegem in Kabarda, also known as Tox'wtemischey, is thought to be the burial mound of the Nart heroine.
This song is from the epic album «Адыгэ Нарт Пшыналъэхэр» ["Circassian Nart Melodies"], Melodiya, 1987.

Nart saga
The Nart sagas (Adyghe: Нартхымэ акъыбарыхэ; Karachay-Balkar: Нарт таурухла; Ossetian: Нарты кадджытæ; Narty kaddžytæ; Chechen: Нарт Аьрштхой) are a series of tales originating from the North Caucasus. They form the basic mythology of the tribes in the area, including Abazin, Abkhaz, Circassian, Ossetian, Karachay-Balkar and Chechen-Ingush folklore.
Etymology
The term nart comes from the Ossetian name of Narts, Nartæ, which is plurale tantum of "nar". The origin of the root nar is of Iranian origin, from Proto-Iranian nar for "hero", "man", descended from Proto-Indo-European *h₂nḗr. In Chechen the word nart means "giant".
Characters
Some of the characters who feature prominently in the sagas are:

Saga
Sagas are stories mostly about ancient Nordic and Germanic history, about early Viking voyages, the battles that took place during the voyages, about migration to Iceland and of feuds between Icelandic families. They were written in the Old Norse language, mainly in Iceland.
The texts are tales in prose which share some similarities with the epic, often with stanzas or whole poems in alliterative verse embedded in the text, of heroic deeds of days long gone, "tales of worthy men," who were often Vikings, sometimes pagan, sometimes Christian. The tales are usually realistic, except legendary sagas, sagas of saints, sagas of bishops and translated or recomposed romances. They are sometimes romanticised and fantastic, but always dealing with human beings one can understand.

Circassian Nart Rhapsody
Circassian Nart Rhapsody Exhilarating music depicting some of the exploits of the mighty Circassian Narts, which would transport those familiar with the Nart Epos to wondrous Nartia – a fabulous world of superhuman heroes and strange creatures, mightful gods and goddesses, demigods and anti-gods, monsters and ogres, giants and Lilliputians, witches and warlocks, Caucasian Medusas and tree-ladies... A little-known fantastic universe that nevertheless would rival the high exoticism and endless rapture of Classical Greece. “The Narts”: I. Zhansherx’ (Жаншэрхъ.

Nart Song of Satire: "Lashin Addresses the Great Narts"

Vasily Abaev, Ossetian Soviet linguist, suggested a Mongolian origin of nar, from Mongolian nara "sun", ultimately from ProtoAltaic: *ŋḕrá ("day, sun, light"). In Chechen the word nart means "giant". The central hero of the saga is the woman Satana. As it has been narrated in Karachay-Balkar Nart epos, Satanay Biyche is the daughter of the sun and the moon. Her father is the sun and her mother is the moon.
There is a clue about the meaning of her name in Karachay-Balkar Alan variants of Nart epos. While she was a little child, a witch has brought up her in a desolate island. Satanay has liked to play with coral stones in this island. The witch has seen that and has decided to name her as Satanay which has meant “little coral stone” (Aliyeva 1994: 299). In Divanu Lugatit Turk of Mahmud Kashgari we can find the same Turkic word “sata” which means coral (Atalay 1986: 496).
In Nart epos there is an extraordinary character which is known as “The Leader of Narts”. His name is Wuerzemec, who is the son of the Goddess of Sea in Adige Nart epos (Özbay 1990: 150). He is known as Wrijmeg, the son of Nart hero Ihsharteg in Osset Nart epos (Dumezil 2005: 34). His mother is the Goddess of Sea just like in Adige variant. In Karachay-Balkar Nart epos the leader of Narts is Örüzmek who has born from a comet which has fallen to the world. He has grown up in seven days with the milk of a wolf (Aliyeva 1994: 74). The name of Wuerzemec ~Wrijmeg~ Örüzmek reminds us the name of Uruz Beg, the son of Salur Kazan in Dede Korkut.
Those motifs of Nart epos are more connected to Dede Korkut and Oguzname than Homeros’ Odysseia.

From the Circassian Nart Epos:
"The Anthem of Nart Sosriqwe"
[«Нарт Сосрыкъуэ и пшыналъэ»; "Nart Sosriqwe yi Pshinalhe"]
There are many versions of this ancient chant that differ in the details but are unitary concerning the main theme. Two versions are presented hereby. The first, some three millennia old, is sung (in Kabardian) by Vladimir Bereghwn (Baragunov). The second is a modern rendition by the popular singer Sultan Uragan (Hezhiroqwe; Хьэжырокъуэ СулътIан).
Transcribed and interpreted by Amjad Jaimoukha. Produced by Sanjalay Jaimoukha.
Jaimoukha, Amjad, Circassian Culture and Folklore, London: Bennett and Bloom, 2010.
http://www.bennettandbloom.com/circassians.htm
This is perhaps the best known melody in the Nart Epos musical repertoire, and one of the most difficult to interpret, given the plenitude of archaic words and expressions, and the presence of at least two layers of semantics transposed in different eras. This gives rise to two interpretations; one archaic and somewhat obscure, and the other more recent and tractable.
This is the story of the epic duel between crafty Sosriqwe and guileless Toteresh on Mount Hereme. In the first meet, the invincible Toteresh son of Albech easily prevails over Sosriqwe, but (foolishly) grants him a stay of execution until the next day. 'He who forfeits tomorrow's encounter shall don the coward's cap!' he said as he let Sosriqwe go. Terrified, Sosriqwe goes back to his over-protective mother Satanay, who counsels him to use ruse to overcome his formidable adversary ('the lone rider, who's the terror of whole armies'), and she invokes black magic in aid of her pet son. In fact, the brash Nart was many a time saved from certain death by the intervention of the mighty sorceress. On the set date, Sosriqwe casts a dark mist over the sacred Mount, causing Toteresh to nod off. Sosriqwe makes his appearance with loud clamour issuing from the bells attached to the mane and tail of his steed, Tx'wezchey. Toteresh's horse takes fright, and is killed by the enraged Toteresh. As Sosriqwe stands over the fallen Toteresh with sword in hand, the supine Nart pleads for a third encounter. However, wily Sosriqwe refuses, cuts off Toteresh's head and returns triumphant to his mother.
Notes on the text:
The expression "мэIуху=shield" is an imposition on the original expression "мыIуэху", whose exact designation is mooted.
Schible is the Circassian God of Thunder.
Ariq (Арыкъ) is a toponym used in the Nart Epos. In current Kabardian, "арыкъ" designates "foothills".
"ПIинэ", "пIынэ": a little cap of rags worn usually by women for everyday use. If someone displays cowardice during a battle or a campaign, he is forced to don this cap, and keep it on until he accomplishes a feat of bravery or heroism, wherefore it is taken off by the womenfolk.
Qwehipsch [literally: Prince of the Ship; qweh (къуэхь)=ship in Old Circassian, pschi (пщы)=prince] is here interpreted as a proper name, although the original designation has been lost in the mist of time. This word is an atavism that was spared the phonetic differentiation undergone by Kabardian (from main Circassian, roughly in the last millennium), one feature of which was the generation of the "new" phoneme qx'w [кхъу; in such words as кхъуэ=pig, кхъуей=cheese, кхъухь=ship], which is not found in the other dialects of Circassian, having kept the original phoneme qw (къу) [къо=pig, къуае=cheese, къухьэ=ship].
In one interpretation, "Лъэдакъэ цыджэт" is rendered "[the Bay] had a shaggy fetlock"!
Toteresh is actually Sosriqwe's maternal cousin. Toteresh's mother, Barembipx'w (Барэмбыпхъу), is Lady Satanay's sister.
Some of the variations on the name of the fierce (but dim) lone rider: Toteresh (Тотэрэш), Totiresh (Тотырэш), Totresh (Тотрэш), T'ot'eresh (ТIотIэрэш).

Circassian Nart Rhapsody
Exhilarating music depicting some of the exploits of the mighty Circassian Narts, which would transport those familiar with the Nart Epos to wondrous Nartia – a fabulous world of superhuman heroes and strange creatures, mightful gods and goddesses, demigods and anti-gods, monsters and ogres, giants and Lilliputians, witches and warlocks, Caucasian Medusas and tree-ladies... A little-known fantastic universe that nevertheless would rival the high exoticism and endless rapture of Classical Greece.
“The Narts”:
I. Zhansherx’ (Жаншэрхъ. Challenging Nart game in which a massive wheel with cutting blades is rolled downhill, with the Nart braveheart
attempting to stop it in its tracks lower down the precipitous height).
II. Dance of the Archers.
III. Zhansherx’(reprise).
IV. Battle with the Eagles of the Heights.
From the Opera-Ballet “The Narts” by Truvor K. Sheibler (1957)
“Symphony of the Caucasus”: Classical Music of Circassia
International Youth Symphony Orchestra of the Choir “Taurida”, conducted by Mikhail Golikov. Grand Hall of the Moscow State Conservatoire (named after P. Tchaikovsky), 3 November 2014.

From the Circassian Nart Epos:
«Лашын Нартыжьхэм Хуаусэ»
"Lashin Addresses the Great Narts"
Sung by Elena Pasch'e (Pacheva)
The role of Ashemez is sung by Ziramikw Qardenghwsch'
Translated by Amjad Jaimoukha
Produced by Sanjalay Jaimoukha
In this ancient song of satire Lashin in turn refuses Amisch, Lhepsch, Schebetiniqwe, Sosriqwe, Ariqschawe, Lhebitsezchey, Yex'wtenijizch, Schawey son of Qanzh, as suitors, but avows to accept Ashemez son of Ashe as a husband if he offers his solicitations. When Ashemez refuses her suit, she adds him to her list of non-suitors. The words of the song retain some of the archaic features of mediaeval Circassian.
One's appreciation of this song is infinitely amplified should one read about the Nart heroes targeted by the petulant shrew and their principal traits and vocations.
In Circassian folklore, the generic figure of Lashin plays the role of the satirist. She is often used to mock the enemies of the Circassians, as in "Kitai Khan and the Legend of Lashin" -- "The Mongol khan, Kitai, after a whirlwind tour of occupation and pillage, came to the frontiers of Circassia some time in the 13th century. The Circassians amassed an army to repel the invading army. In other versions it was the Kalmyk horde that had to be contended with. The Khan elected not to wage war against the Circassians; instead, he challenged one of their braves to a duel with his top wrestler, Qaisin. The Circassians picked up the gauntlet and chose a female commoner, Lashin, to do battle with the Mongol gladiator. According to legend, Lashin's father-in-law saw her lift a cow in anger and throw it some distance away. Fearing for his son, he decided to get rid of her, and when the opportunity arose, he volunteered his daughter-in-law for the challenge. At any rate, Lashin was disguised in male garb so as not to raise a hubbub. The legendary duel took place near river Chegem at a place still known as 'Lashinqey.' Lashin possessed extraordinary strength and she managed to prevail upon her foe within the hour. The Khan acknowledged the defeat, but he could hardly hide his ire. To rub a sore wound, the Circassians revealed the identity of their champion and dared Kitai to try again, this time against one of their real men! The Khan wisely decided to cut his losses and politely declined the offer. He presented the Circassians with many presents and went back home brooding."
Another legend has Lashin defeating the Russians in a battle during the Circassian-Russian War -- perhaps an invocation of the mythical figure to help the Circassians undo their mortal enemies, who took the nation to the brink of extinction.
Mount Lashinqey, located near the western edge of Lashinqey, a settlement on the left bank of the River Chegem in Kabarda, also known as Tox'wtemischey, is thought to be the burial mound of the Nart heroine.
This song is from the epic album «Адыгэ Нарт Пшыналъэхэр» ["Circassian Nart Melodies"], Melodiya, 1987.

This song is from the epic album «Адыгэ Нарт Пшыналъэхэр» ["Circassian Nart Melodies"], Melodiya, 1987.

Balkar Alan folk song: "Narty" (The Caucasian Nart epos)
Vasily Abaev, Ossetian Soviet linguist, suggested a Mongolian origin of nar, from Mongolian nara "sun", ultimately from ProtoAltaic: *ŋḕrá ("day, sun, light"). In Chechen the word nart means "giant". The central hero of the saga is the woman Satana. As it has been narrated in Karachay-Balkar Nart epos, Satanay Biyche is the daughter of the sun and the moon. Her father is the sun and her mother is the moon. There is a clue about the meaning of her name in Karachay-Balkar Alan variants of Nart epos. While she was a little child, a witch has brought up her in a desolate island. Satanay has liked to play with coral stones in this island. The witch has seen that and has decided to name her as Satanay which has meant “little coral stone” (Aliyeva 1994: 299). In Divanu Lugatit Turk of Mahmud Kas...

Satanay has liked to play with coral stones in this island. The witch has seen that and has decided to name her as Satanay which has meant “little coral stone” (Aliyeva 1994: 299). In Divanu Lugatit Turk of Mahmud Kashgari we can find the same Turkic word “sata” which means coral (Atalay 1986: 496).
In Nart epos there is an extraordinary character which is known as “The Leader of Narts”. His name is Wuerzemec, who is the son of the Goddess of Sea in Adige Nart epos (Özbay 1990: 150). He is known as Wrijmeg, the son of Nart hero Ihsharteg in Osset Nart epos (Dumezil 2005: 34). His mother is the Goddess of Sea just like in Adige variant. In Karachay-Balkar Nart epos the leader of Narts is Örüzmek who has born from a comet which has fallen to the world. He has grown up in seven days with the milk of a wolf (Aliyeva 1994: 74). The name of Wuerzemec ~Wrijmeg~ Örüzmek reminds us the name of Uruz Beg, the son of Salur Kazan in Dede Korkut.
Those motifs of Nart epos are more connected to Dede Korkut and Oguzname than Homeros’ Odysseia.

From the Circassian Nart Epos:
"The Anthem of Nart Sosriqwe"
[«Нарт Сосрыкъуэ и пшыналъэ»; "Nart Sosriqwe yi Pshinalhe"]
There are many versions of this ancient chant that differ in the details but are unitary concerning the main theme. Two versions are presented hereby. The first, some three millennia old, is sung (in Kabardian) by Vladimir Bereghwn (Baragunov). The second is a modern rendition by the popular singer Sultan Uragan (Hezhiroqwe; Хьэжырокъуэ СулътIан).
Transcribed and interpreted by Amjad Jaimoukha. Produced by Sanjalay Jaimoukha.
Jaimoukha, Amjad, Circassian Culture and Folklore, London: Bennett and Bloom, 2010.
http://www.bennettandbloom.com/circassians.htm
This is perhaps the best known melody in the Nart Epos musical repertoire, and one of the most difficult to interpret, given the plenitude of archaic words and expressions, and the presence of at least two layers of semantics transposed in different eras. This gives rise to two interpretations; one archaic and somewhat obscure, and the other more recent and tractable.
This is the story of the epic duel between crafty Sosriqwe and guileless Toteresh on Mount Hereme. In the first meet, the invincible Toteresh son of Albech easily prevails over Sosriqwe, but (foolishly) grants him a stay of execution until the next day. 'He who forfeits tomorrow's encounter shall don the coward's cap!' he said as he let Sosriqwe go. Terrified, Sosriqwe goes back to his over-protective mother Satanay, who counsels him to use ruse to overcome his formidable adversary ('the lone rider, who's the terror of whole armies'), and she invokes black magic in aid of her pet son. In fact, the brash Nart was many a time saved from certain death by the intervention of the mighty sorceress. On the set date, Sosriqwe casts a dark mist over the sacred Mount, causing Toteresh to nod off. Sosriqwe makes his appearance with loud clamour issuing from the bells attached to the mane and tail of his steed, Tx'wezchey. Toteresh's horse takes fright, and is killed by the enraged Toteresh. As Sosriqwe stands over the fallen Toteresh with sword in hand, the supine Nart pleads for a third encounter. However, wily Sosriqwe refuses, cuts off Toteresh's head and returns triumphant to his mother.
Notes on the text:
The expression "мэIуху=shield" is an imposition on the original expression "мыIуэху", whose exact designation is mooted.
Schible is the Circassian God of Thunder.
Ariq (Арыкъ) is a toponym used in the Nart Epos. In current Kabardian, "арыкъ" designates "foothills".
"ПIинэ", "пIынэ": a little cap of rags worn usually by women for everyday use. If someone displays cowardice during a battle or a campaign, he is forced to don this cap, and keep it on until he accomplishes a feat of bravery or heroism, wherefore it is taken off by the womenfolk.
Qwehipsch [literally: Prince of the Ship; qweh (къуэхь)=ship in Old Circassian, pschi (пщы)=prince] is here interpreted as a proper name, although the original designation has been lost in the mist of time. This word is an atavism that was spared the phonetic differentiation undergone by Kabardian (from main Circassian, roughly in the last millennium), one feature of which was the generation of the "new" phoneme qx'w [кхъу; in such words as кхъуэ=pig, кхъуей=cheese, кхъухь=ship], which is not found in the other dialects of Circassian, having kept the original phoneme qw (къу) [къо=pig, къуае=cheese, къухьэ=ship].
In one interpretation, "Лъэдакъэ цыджэт" is rendered "[the Bay] had a shaggy fetlock"!
Toteresh is actually Sosriqwe's maternal cousin. Toteresh's mother, Barembipx'w (Барэмбыпхъу), is Lady Satanay's sister.
Some of the variations on the name of the fierce (but dim) lone rider: Toteresh (Тотэрэш), Totiresh (Тотырэш), Totresh (Тотрэш), T'ot'eresh (ТIотIэрэш).

Circassian Nart Rhapsody
Exhilarating music depicting some of the exploits of the mighty Circassian Narts, which would transport those familiar with the Nart Epos to wondrous Nartia – a fabulous world of superhuman heroes and strange creatures, mightful gods and goddesses, demigods and anti-gods, monsters and ogres, giants and Lilliputians, witches and warlocks, Caucasian Medusas and tree-ladies... A little-known fantastic universe that nevertheless would rival the high exoticism and endless rapture of Classical Greece.
“The Narts”:
I. Zhansherx’ (Жаншэрхъ. Challenging Nart game in which a massive wheel with cutting blades is rolled downhill, with the Nart braveheart
attempting to stop it in its tracks lower down the precipitous height).
II. Dance of the Archers.
III. Zhansherx’(reprise).
IV. Battle with the Eagles of the Heights.

From the Circassian Nart Epos:
«Лашын Нартыжьхэм Хуаусэ»
"Lashin Addresses the Great Narts"
Sung by Elena Pasch'e (Pacheva)
The role of Ashemez is sung by Ziramikw Qardenghwsch'
Translated by Amjad Jaimoukha
Produced by Sanjalay Jaimoukha
In this ancient song of satire Lashin in turn refuses Amisch, Lhepsch, Schebetiniqwe, Sosriqwe, Ariqschawe, Lhebitsezchey, Yex'wtenijizch, Schawey son of Qanzh, as suitors, but avows to accept Ashemez son of Ashe as a husband if he offers his solicitations. When Ashemez refuses her suit, she adds him to her list of non-suitors. The words of the song retain some of the archaic features of mediaeval Circassian.
One's appreciation of this song is infinitely amplified should one read about the Nart heroes targeted by the petulant shrew and their principal traits and vocations.
In Circassian folklore, the generic figure of Lashin plays the role of the satirist. She is often used to mock the enemies of the Circassians, as in "Kitai Khan and the Legend of Lashin" -- "The Mongol khan, Kitai, after a whirlwind tour of occupation and pillage, came to the frontiers of Circassia some time in the 13th century. The Circassians amassed an army to repel the invading army. In other versions it was the Kalmyk horde that had to be contended with. The Khan elected not to wage war against the Circassians; instead, he challenged one of their braves to a duel with his top wrestler, Qaisin. The Circassians picked up the gauntlet and chose a female commoner, Lashin, to do battle with the Mongol gladiator. According to legend, Lashin's father-in-law saw her lift a cow in anger and throw it some distance away. Fearing for his son, he decided to get rid of her, and when the opportunity arose, he volunteered his daughter-in-law for the challenge. At any rate, Lashin was disguised in male garb so as not to raise a hubbub. The legendary duel took place near river Chegem at a place still known as 'Lashinqey.' Lashin possessed extraordinary strength and she managed to prevail upon her foe within the hour. The Khan acknowledged the defeat, but he could hardly hide his ire. To rub a sore wound, the Circassians revealed the identity of their champion and dared Kitai to try again, this time against one of their real men! The Khan wisely decided to cut his losses and politely declined the offer. He presented the Circassians with many presents and went back home brooding."
Another legend has Lashin defeating the Russians in a battle during the Circassian-Russian War -- perhaps an invocation of the mythical figure to help the Circassians undo their mortal enemies, who took the nation to the brink of extinction.
Mount Lashinqey, located near the western edge of Lashinqey, a settlement on the left bank of the River Chegem in Kabarda, also known as Tox'wtemischey, is thought to be the burial mound of the Nart heroine.
This song is from the epic album «Адыгэ Нарт Пшыналъэхэр» ["Circassian Nart Melodies"], Melodiya, 1987.

https://wn.com/Nart_Song_Of_Satire_Lashin_Addresses_The_Great_Narts
From the Circassian Nart Epos:
«Лашын Нартыжьхэм Хуаусэ»
"Lashin Addresses the Great Narts"
Sung by Elena Pasch'e (Pacheva)
The role of Ashemez is sung by Ziramikw Qardenghwsch'
Translated by Amjad Jaimoukha
Produced by Sanjalay Jaimoukha
In this ancient song of satire Lashin in turn refuses Amisch, Lhepsch, Schebetiniqwe, Sosriqwe, Ariqschawe, Lhebitsezchey, Yex'wtenijizch, Schawey son of Qanzh, as suitors, but avows to accept Ashemez son of Ashe as a husband if he offers his solicitations. When Ashemez refuses her suit, she adds him to her list of non-suitors. The words of the song retain some of the archaic features of mediaeval Circassian.
One's appreciation of this song is infinitely amplified should one read about the Nart heroes targeted by the petulant shrew and their principal traits and vocations.
In Circassian folklore, the generic figure of Lashin plays the role of the satirist. She is often used to mock the enemies of the Circassians, as in "Kitai Khan and the Legend of Lashin" -- "The Mongol khan, Kitai, after a whirlwind tour of occupation and pillage, came to the frontiers of Circassia some time in the 13th century. The Circassians amassed an army to repel the invading army. In other versions it was the Kalmyk horde that had to be contended with. The Khan elected not to wage war against the Circassians; instead, he challenged one of their braves to a duel with his top wrestler, Qaisin. The Circassians picked up the gauntlet and chose a female commoner, Lashin, to do battle with the Mongol gladiator. According to legend, Lashin's father-in-law saw her lift a cow in anger and throw it some distance away. Fearing for his son, he decided to get rid of her, and when the opportunity arose, he volunteered his daughter-in-law for the challenge. At any rate, Lashin was disguised in male garb so as not to raise a hubbub. The legendary duel took place near river Chegem at a place still known as 'Lashinqey.' Lashin possessed extraordinary strength and she managed to prevail upon her foe within the hour. The Khan acknowledged the defeat, but he could hardly hide his ire. To rub a sore wound, the Circassians revealed the identity of their champion and dared Kitai to try again, this time against one of their real men! The Khan wisely decided to cut his losses and politely declined the offer. He presented the Circassians with many presents and went back home brooding."
Another legend has Lashin defeating the Russians in a battle during the Circassian-Russian War -- perhaps an invocation of the mythical figure to help the Circassians undo their mortal enemies, who took the nation to the brink of extinction.
Mount Lashinqey, located near the western edge of Lashinqey, a settlement on the left bank of the River Chegem in Kabarda, also known as Tox'wtemischey, is thought to be the burial mound of the Nart heroine.
