Asha
Asha (Avestan aṣ̌a / arta), later personified as Asha Vahishta, is the foundational Zoroastrian cosmic and moral principle of truth, right order, and right-working; it functions both as an abstract ontological principle (truth = existence) and as one of the Amesha Spenta, the divine hypostases serving Ahura Mazda.
Ashaqlun
Ashaqlun is recorded in a single source as a Manichean demon — a hostile spiritual being situated within Manichaean dualist cosmology. The available record supplies only the name and classification without further detail on attributes, appearance, or practices.
Ashenafi
Ashenafi is attested in the supplied sources only as an Amharic personal name (Amharic: አሸናፊ). The provided materials contain no evidence that 'Ashenafi' functions as a folk demon, evil spirit, or other supernatural entity in Ethiopian tradition.
Asherah
Asherah is a major ancient Northwest Semitic mother-and-fertility divine figure closely associated with sacred trees and wooden cult poles. Attested across Ugarit, Canaanite/Phoenician, Israelite, Akkadian and related Levantine contexts, her cultic presence is debated in later Israelite texts where references are often recast as objects (asherah poles, groves) and subject to iconoclastic reform.
Ashgi
Ashgi (Sumerian Ašgi, 𒀭𒋓𒄄) is an early Mesopotamian city-associated deity attested primarily in sources from the Early Dynastic and Sargonic periods. He functioned as the tutelary god of Adab and was linked with Kesh, appears in hymns and offering lists (once characterized as a warrior in the Kesh temple hymn), and later lost prominence when Ninhursag (Digirmah) became the principal city deity.
Ashi-magari
Ashi-magari (足まがり) is a ghostly phenomenon from Kagawa Prefecture, Shikoku, Japan, described as a soft, unseen thing that wraps around a person's legs at night and impedes walking. It is commonly presented in local accounts as a tactile obstruction rather than a visually manifest creature and is often attributed to tanuki trickery.
Ashide
Ashide denotes (a) a historical Turkic clan/noble family closely allied with the Ashina ruling house of the Göktürk Khaganate and (b) a Japanese pictorial calligraphic technique (literally "reed-hand") in which cursive characters are disguised within painted natural motifs. Neither usage in the supplied sources describes a supernatural being.
Ashima
Ashima is an ancient West Semitic goddess personifying fate — the portion, name, or allotted lot — attested in West Semitic onomastic and textual contexts. She appears in Iron Age Samaritan cult lists and in the wider Near Eastern lexical field of deities and terms for 'fate' (cognate with Akkadian shimti and South Semitic Manāt).
Ashina Buzhen
Ashina Buzhen (Chinese: 阿史那步真) was a 7th-century member of the Ashina ruling house of the Western Turks who acted as a military and political claimant to khaganate authority on the Tang frontier. Recorded in Tang-era sources and modern summaries, he engaged in inter-elite rivalry, participated in Tang military campaigns, received an imperial-bestowed khagan title from Emperor Gaozong, and died in 667.
Ashina Helu
Ashina Helu (阿史那賀魯 / 阿史那贺鲁, āshǐnà hèlǔ) was a mid‑7th century member of the Ashina clan who claimed the title qaγan (khagan) of the Western Turkic polity. Active as a tribal shad and later self‑declared khagan, he contested Tang authority, was defeated by General Su Dingfang in 657, handed over by Chach, spared by Emperor Gaozong, and spent his remaining years in Chang'an.
Ashina Mishe
Ashina Mishe (Chinese: 阿史那彌射; ?–662) was a mid-7th century member of the Ashina clan installed and recognized by the Tang court as a khagan and frontier protector-general over portions of the former Western Turkic territories. His career illustrates Tang imperial practices of using titled Turkic elites as intermediaries to administer and pacify western protectorates; his death in 662 following an intrafamilial rivalry weakened Tang influence in the region.
Ashina Nishufu
Ashina Nishufu was a member of the Ashina clan proclaimed qaghan in a short-lived Göktürk revolt against the Tang dynasty (679–680 CE). Declared by Turkic leaders Ashide Wenfu and Ashide Fengzhi, his uprising was defeated by Tang general Pei Xingjian; he was killed by his own men and the revolt’s leaders and many Göktürks were executed in Chang'an.
