Slavic Religion
Early Slavs worshiped a variety of spirits. They also believed that their ancestors could influence their lives, and often worshiped them. A popular Slavic god was Perun, the god of thunder and lightning. These gods and spirits would be carved into their homes, public buildings, and into works that were placed on the highest point in a Slavic village.
