pagan deity
Pre-Christian divine being
A pagan deity is a god or goddess from a polytheistic religion, especially those of ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt, or Norse cultures.
The term implies worship outside the Abrahamic traditions—Christianity, Judaism, and Islam.
The temple was dedicated to a pagan deity of the harvest.
Modern pagans and Wiccans may worship or honor such deities in contemporary practice.
