Finnish Mythology Family Tree Poster | 11x8.5 Research Study Chart of Deities

Includes 2 files in a Zipped Folder: 1 Copy with Deities Colored by Archetype (i.e. Sun Gods, Sea Gods, etc) and 1 Copy in Grayscale Optimized for Black & White Printing. I (Joshua J Kes) am passionate about mythology and anthropology. I have a B.S. in Geography and Sociology; the study of places and people, respectively. I've been working on a database for comparative mythological studies for a few years now, and thought I'd put together some slick informative charts/posters of family trees for various pantheons. I also produce YouTube videos on this subject @Sapienite1, with episodes on individual motifs and pantheons. If you like what you see, you may check them out for more details! Here's my video on the Norse Pantheon: https://youtu.be/-7ndyWqaza8 Finnish mythology is one among the broader Finnic group, including Estonian, Saami, and Permian mythologies, which each helped to fill in gaps within Finnish. Finland, Estonia, Lapland, and Permia have all been influenced or themselves influenced nearby cultures, like Norse, Baltic, Slavic, and its sister Uralic branch of Ugrian. Our methodology of comparison for mythological motifs usually involves planetary or astrological associations, but this time, I used a simple coding system including 11 motifs/archetypes/codes, each color-coded and in order from left-to-right: 1. HEARTH - Fire, Blacksmithing, or Domestic Deities like Ilmarinen. 2. EARTH - Earth, Fertility, or Wild Deities like Maahetar and Kalev. 3. SKY - Sky, Storm, or Messenger Deities like Ukko and Ilmatar. 4. WATER - Sea, River, or Wellspring Deities like Ahto and Vellamo. 5. CHTHONIC - Underworld Deities like Tuoni and Loviatar. 6. DAY - Sun or Light Deities like Paivatar. 7. NIGHT - Moon, Night, or Dusk Deities like Kuutar. 8. LOVE- Dawn, Love, Muse, or Justice Deities like Aamutar and Lempo. 9. WAR - War Deities, which are not present in this chart. 10. DEMIGOD - Demigods or Heroes, which are not present in this chart. 11. MONSTER - Monsters or Spirits like the Sotka Duck and Surma. ©2026 Pandemonia, LLC, all rights reserved. For personal or professional use only, educational display.
