Horagalles

In Sámi shamanism, Western Sámi Horagalles, often equated with Eastern Sámi Tiermes, Baján, and Aijeke or Äijih (lit.'old man'), is the thunder god. He is depicted as a wooden figure with a nail in the head and with a hammer, or occasionally on shaman drums, two hammers.
There is a theory that Tiermes is the original Sámi sky god, while West and South Sámi sky god Radien-attje was born later out of Norse pagan and Christian influences.
