Resource Toolbox

in the mythology of the Kalmucks, is the goddess of flowers. By a simple act of the will she transforms flowers into men. She is represented very much like Herli Kan and Jamandaga, in the centre of a number of goddesses, not seated, however, on a crushed man, but on a most beautiful flower.
