Hey so I did some research into Bozic and one of the main things I saw that isn't really mentioned in the article is the difference between Swarozyc and Swarog. From my research, Bozic was the Christian appropriate name for Swarozyc (winter solstice deity). Swarog is the summer solstice deity- I couldn't find too much further explaining them other than Swarozyc replaces Swarog and Christians interpreted that as the birth of Christ. Bozic meaning "little god" from what I could find. The issue with editing the actual wiki page is there's not a lot of reputable sources so I'm just putting what I found and my sources here so hopefully someone in the future can find better ones. </https://cogniarchae.com/2021/02/20/radegast-and-simargl-two-slavic-gods-that-never-existed/></https://www.google.com/books/edition/How_Christmas_Became_Christmas/dfmZEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=bozic+christmas&pg=PA41&printsec=frontcover>
