Art/Literary - History / Девичья Башня
Russian term or phrase: мировоззренческой принадлежности
"Что касается мировоззренческой принадлежности конкретно Бакинской ДБ, то А. Мехтиева считает, что Башня была построена до зороастризма, и относит ее к местным традициям, а именно к религии огнепоклонников, не осуществляя при этом мировоззренческой и этнической идентификации этой религии и его носителя."

Спасибо. (Ничто не приходит в голову, кроме ideology)

English translation:system of beliefs (which which it is) associated
Explanation:
"Regarding the system of beliefs with which the Baku Maiden Tower, specifically, is associated, it is M's view that..."

Something like that. I would avoid "religion," only because it tends to denote a social organization, whereas here the guy is saying it was built by pre-Zoroastrians who were fire-worshippers, but I'm not sure that is "a religion." I suppose "the world outlook" or "view of the world" or "world view" could work, if you wanted to avoid "system."

agree  Olga Klymenko: absolutely! or even better "belief system"; you can google this one to see that it's a match

  -> Thanks, Olga. Yes, "belief system" is legal, but in order to keep the emphasis on the beliefs rather than on some "system" that we don't know much about, I would keep it as "system of beliefs."
