Anahit may be an armenian name in our days. But that wouldn't be meant by Scelsi. Anahit(a) is the name of an avestian (zarathustrian) goddess. Her properties changed in the run of history. In the ancient days of the avestian religion she is assotiated with the mythem "motherhood". Somtimes joined with Ahura Mazda and Mithras in a triade. Her original "homeland" was the parthian empire, it is evident that her name develloped to an armenian female prename.
In my defense, I'll say that I don't have any first hand knowledge about it. - I'm only repeating what I read in the liner notes. But thanks for the information.
Anahit was the Godess of Fertility and healing, wisdom and water in Armenian mythology.
