Mentions of Tellervo in runic songs are limited to Kainuu, North Karelia, the Karelian Isthmus and White Karelia. In Kainuu and White Karelia, Tellervo is asked to help with hunting a bear; in North Karelia, to find help against an illness that came from the forest; on the Karelian Isthmus, to protect cattle. It has been suggested that the Tellervo name is a variant of Hillervo, Mother of Otters, mentioned in one runic song. This view has been supported by e.g. M.A. Castrén and Martti Haavio. Name The name Tellervo has been theorized to originate from Pellervo, associated with an agricultural god.

Jacob Grimm suggested the name to come from ''telta'', '' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
