Branches and affiliations

Many paths. Shared histories.

What this means

Association and branching, in both directions. Traditions overlap, split and re-merge; this is not a single-origin family tree, and being listed under another tradition is not the same as being recognised by it.

Does not imply a clean single-origin family tree · that the parent recognises the branch

What this means

Records whose own statements name this tradition — 4 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.

A god named in a tradition is a figure of its accounts; a picture of one is a work of art, not a likeness.
