Description

Sveiki!

In this course I will teach about Latvian mythology. It's about god pantheon, deities, creatures and mythical beings like wizards, mermaids. Also have added symbols, holy places etc. At the beginning I have a lesson about the Baltic tribes(Latvians & Lithuanians), and how they are split or  called before they merged into modern day countries. Also maps about which parts tribes are located in. After that I am explaining how the gods are split into different levels, for example, some are considered cosmic gods residing in the sky, representing the starts, sun and the moon, but there are gods living in the underworld. Besides gods other beings like wizards or house spirits are considered as lower level beings to them.

So this course is for students, who have interest in Latvian culture or mythology in general. Some gods or creatures are also mentioned in Lithuanian or Slavic folklores as well. Besides the maps the course is also filled with illustrations of all deities and other beings, so it's easy for students to have a clear understanding how the deity or a being looks like.

The benefits can be to learn a new aspect of Baltic culture like knowing gods & goddesses, that where worshipped. Also to recognise the symbols, and to know what each of them represent.
