Tharapita

Tharapita (Tharapitta, Turupit), Gott der Öselaner, flog nach der esthnischen Mythe von Wierland (einem Kreis des esthnischen Festlandes) nach der Insel Ösel, als ums Jahr 1219 durch den Priester Dietrich sich das Christenthum in Esthland ausbreitete. Der Platz seiner Verehrung in Esthland soll bei dem Dorfe Ebbacher im Kirchspiel Klein Marien, an der Quelle der Pala, gewesen sein.
