Milda (mythology)

Goddess Milda by Kazimierz Alchimowicz (1910) in private collection, Vilnius

Milda, in the Lithuanian mythology, is the goddess of love.[1] However, her authenticity is debated by scholars. Despite the uncertainty, Milda became a popular female given name in Lithuania. Neo-pagan societies and communities, including Romuva, organize various events in honor of goddess Milda in May.[2] The Milda Mons, a mountain on Venus, is named after her.[3]
