Transformations of the Lithuanian God Perkunas
Abstract
In the article, later substitutions for the god Perkunas are analysed. Most frequently appear the names of the prophet Eliah (Alijošius) and St.George (Jurgis) as the hristian replacements diffused from the Lithuanian region, which borders on Belarus where converting to Christianity began earlier.
