Udmurt Vos
Udmurt Vos (Udmurt: Удмурт Вӧсь, literally "Udmurt Faith") is the ethnic religious revival of the Udmurts, a Finno-Ugric ethnic group inhabiting the republic of Udmurtia in Russia. Among the Udmurts, as in other Finno-Ugric republics in the Volga region, the revival of Paganism is inextricably intertwined with the revival of national-ethnic culture and awareness.〔Filatov-Shchipkov, 1997, p. 177〕
The Udmurtian Pagan revival circles sprang out of the ''Demen'' (Udmurt for "Society") movement which was established in December 1989 for the protection and restoration of the Udmurt ethnic culture.〔Victor Schnirelmann. ''(“Christians! Go home”: A Revival of Neo-Paganism between the Baltic Sea and Transcaucasia )''. Journal of Contemporary Religion, Vol. 17, No. 2, 2002. p. 206〕 Udmurt Vos as an institution was founded in 1994.〔Taagepera p. 279〕
According to 2012 statistics, 2% of the population of Udmurtia adheres to forms of Paganism. Victor Schnirelmann reported an adherence of 4% for the Udmurts alone.
