While also feared for the storms and hale he could bring, the Aztec and their neighbors worshipped Tlaloc is the god of rain and where water is kept, in caves and cenotes. Lord of fertility and a benevolent god more often than not, the Mexican marigold was his. #MythologyMonday

Another great collection of folk tales is "Mythen und Sagen Tirols" by Johann Nepomuk von Alpenburg. Not only are the local legends of the Tyrolean Alps endlessly fascinating, but I recognize the author for a fellow folklore enthusiast with _views_ - which he is never shy about sharing them with his readers. #MythologyMonday https://wiki.sunkencastles.com/wiki/Category:Alpenburg_-_Mythen_und_Sagen_Tirols

The Wildg'fahr is an alpine monster which makes a rustling noise like dried furs when it moves. This is because its skin rasps across its bones — it does not have any flesh. #MythologyMonday https://wiki.sunkencastles.com/wiki/The_Wildg%27fahr
