Abstract
The paper is a critical study of the Armenian demonic nomenclature of the ancient and later periods, covering the Classical and Middle Armenian texts and modern dialects, including Western Armenian traditions, which were alive until the first decades of the 20th century among the population of the Armenian provinces of the Ottoman Empire. The author presents a full list of the Armenian demons of different periods, critically revising the origin of their names and functions on a comparative background.
