Quote from: rogue69 on 27 February, 2024, 11:25:42 PMI was just reading the other day that Ukko was a Indo-European God of the Sky, Thunder, Lightning & Harvest in the same vain as Thor in Norse Mythology
Ukko is also held as the most significant god of Finnish mythology & is Finnish for 'male grandparent', 'grandfather'& 'old man"
Not quite the Ukko we all know and love
In Finland there is a town called Raahe. Raahe has a museum. In the museum is what is thought to be the world's oldest surviving diving suit, (18th century). The diving suit is known as "Wanha Herra" or "The Old Gentleman", is made of leather and has feet resembling traditional Finnish footwear.
This is what the suit looks like...
...which may seem somewhat familiar...
