The paper describes the Caucasus as one of the ancient centres of Christianity where the doctrine of the Christ began to penetrate in the same centuries as in the Roman Empire. The Northwest Caucasus has gone through two waves of Christianization. The first wave – Orthodox – dates back to 7th-13th centuries. It is associated with the influence of the Byzantian Empire. The second wave – Catholic – is related to occurrence in the region in the 1260s – 1270s of a plenty of Genoeses and other natives from the Apennines. This period lasted till 1470s and has resulted in distribution of Catholicisms in Zikhiya-Circassia. And though there have already been two episcopal faculties in Zikhiya in the middle of the 14th century, the Christian religion has not received deep penetration and Circassians perceived only an external basically ceremonial system the elements of which were densely bound with a fabric of Adyghe Paganism.
