Jesza

Early Slavs

Jesza or Jasza is an alleged Polish god. He was first mentioned around 1405–1412 in the sermons of Lucas of Wielki Koźmin, which warned against the worship of Jesza and other gods during spring rituals and folk performances. His popularity is partly owed Jan Długosz's comparison of him to the Roman god Jupiter.

However, the opinions of the 20th century and later researchers are divided with respect to the authenticity of the deity.
