Totemic Bird of the Árpáds

Hungarian · deity · mythic / origin legend · deity

Hungarian ⟨Turul⟩ (likely from a Turkic word for a bird of prey, togrïl/falcon-eagle). Classed as a deity-tier figure (totemic ancestor-spirit) per the schema, since no demigod/scion tier fits a theriomorphic divine bird; explained here in notes. The world-tree (égig érő fa) and the táltos shaman are the cosmological frame in which it sits.
