Dyaus Hindu
Prithvi, the earth, and Dyaus, the sky or heaven, were symbolized as cow
and bull. They were early deities, worshipped as fertility gods and considered
to have engendered all the other gods and men. Their importance diminished
however and, though they survived into later pantheons, their progeny was
much reduced. Usha, the dawn, was their daughter and Agni, the fire, their
son. But their greatest claim to fame is through Indra, another son. Prithvi
was the heroic female and Dyaus, the vigorous god.
