From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In
Greek religion and
mythology, Theandrios (
Greek: Θεάνδριος, "God-Man") or Theandrates (Θεανδράτης) is a
deity that was worshipped in towns and villages around
Mount Hermon by
North Arabian tribes of
pre-Islamic Arabia.
[1] Theandrios is evidenced by a dedication to a male god found at
Beit Rime,
Syria and it is supposed that the Greek name was imposed on a previous god of the region.
[2] He has been considered the
Arabian version of similar "God-man" deities such as
Dionysus,
Heracles,
Mithras,
Krishna and
Jesus.
