(urth) Wind god

[Lee Berman]

>Stanislaus B.- I suggest reading Dumezil, especially on Varuna-type gods including 
>Odin, and their servant creatures/people, such as luperci, centaurs and 
>Gandharvas. Without Dumezil Pan etc is imposssible to understand.

In the biography, Wikipedia notes:
 
>Many themes of Dumézil's work have continued influence in ancient religious studies: for 
>example, his impulse to comparative study, and his basic insight that polytheistic gods 
>must be studied not simply by themselves, but in the pairs and ensembles in which their 
>worshippers grouped them.
 
Thanks Stan. Yes, this is EXACTLY what I am finding in RttW as a unifying theme which 
extends back to  the subtext of BotNS. I find the general concept confusing but focusing 
on the things (gods) Wolfe seems to be focusing on is at least allowing a vague explanatory 
model to appear, for me.
