Helith: An Anglo-Saxon Pagan Deity

A small free eBook by Swain Wodening and GardenStone.

The names Helia, Heile, Helið and Helith are recorded in several medieval and later publications as names for a pagan deity who was venerated in the southwest of early Anglo-Saxon England. Strange enough, actual scholarly related literature does not mention those records. This publication gives a fair overview on what is known about this pagan god.
Therefore this contribution, in which the two authors showed both their craving for this kind of clarification and could indulge their passion for historical research in the fields of their interests, closes a 'historical gap'.
