Pashupati

Pashupati is a god associated with animals and nature. He arose from the Mohenjo-daro culture of India. He is a stag-horned god, much like the Celtic Cernunnos. Sometimes connections have been drawn from Pashupati to Shiva, a later, Hindu god, with Pashaputi as the forerunner, so to speak.
