In Slavic mythology, the god of the harvest is known as Veles. Veles is associated with cattle, commerce, and the arts, playing a pivotal role in the agricultural cycle. As a deity of the underworld and fertility, he is believed to guard the harvests and ensure bountiful crops for the community. Veles is often depicted in conflict with the sky god Perun, representing the struggle between earth and sky. His worship emphasizes the agricultural importance in Slavic culture and the reverence for the natural cycles that sustain life.
