Usład
Slavic deity
Usład is a Slavic deity, mentioned by Maciej Stryjkowski in 1582.[1][2] It is not believed to be a real deity.[1][2]
Stryjkowski gave a fictitious description of the statue of Perun, displayed in Kiev by Prince Vladimir the Great, Stryjkowski then gave a list of the remaining deities of the pagan pantheon:[1][2]
The other idols were named Usład, Khors, Dazhbog, Stribog, Simargl, Mokosh[1][2]
In reality, the name Usład made its way into the chronicler's account due to a misunderstanding or distortion of words from The Tale of Bygone Years.[1][2]
A statue of Perun was described as us zlat, which means 'golden mustache'.[1][2]
