Chislobog – the god of numbers, one of the most popular pseudo-gods today. Andrey Shishkin, 2015
Other namesЧислобог
Venerated inYnglism

Chislobog (Числобог) is a Slavic pseudo-deity of time and/or numbers invented in the 1900s, mentioned in the Book of Veles[1]. A book normally seen as a literary forgery which is claimed to be an ancient Slavic mythical text.[2][3][4].

Despite his dubious origins, he is worshipped prominently in Ynglism,[5] a new religious movement which claims to be reviving ancient Slavic religion.[6]

His name comes from number (число, chislo), god (бог, bog)[lower-alpha 1].

He is said to control the river of time[7]

He is sometimes considered a goddess rather than a god[8]

Notes

  1. Due to the nature of the Veles book as a forgery, not written in an actual language, these words cannot be said to be in any given language; however, they are recognizable to most Slavic speakers
