In the Slavic Pantheon, Perun is the highest god. He is the lord of heaven, thunder, and lightning. The name Perun roughly means “to strike” and it survived in the Polish language as piorun - thunder. ¹⁾.

Slavic rituals were mainly based on agricultural celebrations and the lunar cycles. There was, for example, Velja Noc which fell around the same time as Easter nowadays, or Kupala during summer solstice. ²⁾.

Ancient Slavic civilization was one of the most conservative civilizations known on earth. Slavs believed that the world had been created once and for all, and nothing should try to change the way of life as passed on by their ancestors. ³⁾.

There are computer games based on gods and creatures from Slavic mythology. They are Thea: The Awakening and Thea 2: The Shattering turn-based strategy survival games with unique ideas. ⁴⁾.

The creatures from Slavic mythology can also be met in the series of books about the Witcher Geralt. Following the books, there are also games and a Netflix show. ⁵⁾.
