"Велес" meaning in Macedonian

{
  "etymology_text": "The current city's name dates to the 7th century with the arrival of the Slavs. It is thought to derive from the phrase в (v) лес (les, “in the forest”) referencing the dense woods that once surrounded the area. However, some Slavists derive the name directly from the god Veles, protector of herds and commerce, reflecting the region's pastoral landscape of grassy hills and its proximity to the Vardar River.",
