Rauni

Finnish · deity · primordial · deity

THE CORPUS HELD UKKO AND NOT HIS WIFE, in a tradition whose word for thunder — ukkonen — is his name, and where the pair is the oldest one attested. Akka and Rauni are recorded as one figure with two names rather than as two records, which is the reading the treatments consulted take.
