In
Latvian mythology,
Cerklicing was a fertility god, associated with
agriculture and
farmers. The
Jesuit Joannis Stribingius[?] discussed Cerklicing when he went to eastern
Latvia in
1606. The deities are therein described by the word "pop". The first bite of any food, and the first drop of any drink, was given to this deity.
