Christianity cannot be doubted. It is already attested
in the early 4th c. (we're not sure if this pertains
to the Crimea or the Danubian area though), and while
most Goths remained pagan while in the East (there is
no evidence of massive Christianity in the burial
rites of the Chernyakhiv culture) they certainly
converted in the course of the middle and later 5th
century. The Crimean Goths BTW adopted Orthodox
Christianity of the Byzantine variety.

Dear George Knysh

I am engaged in photographing of places of stay Goths in Crimea -
I ask to inform all written primary sources, known for you, where
it is underlined acceptance of a christianity Goths in Crimea,
I shall be very grateful!
