Nittaewo

A figure of Sri Lankan Veddah and broader folk tradition: a legendary small, bipedal, hairy hominid/cryptid said to have lived in forests and caves of Sri Lanka, described in oral testimony as antagonistic to Veddah people and allegedly exterminated by them in the recent past.

Riri Yaka (Riri Deviyo)

Riri Yaka (also rendered Riri Deviyo) is a named entity in Sri Lankan folkloric queries but the supplied source excerpts do not provide descriptive material about its nature, appearance, powers, or cult. Available excerpts reference Sri Lankan ritual calendar items (Esala Poya, Vassa) but do not substantively discuss Riri Yaka.

Galehaut

Galehaut is a literary figure of the medieval Arthurian cycle: a sovereign prince and great knight-commander of the Distant Isles (Sorelois/Surluse) who first opposes King Arthur, then surrenders and becomes a close companion of Lancelot. In the Prose Lancelot and related romances he functions as an exemplar of chivalric magnanimity and tragic devotion; some redactions describe him as the son of a 'Fair Giantess' (a half‑giant) while later literature repurposes his name as a mediator of illicit love.

Galla demons

Galla are presented in the supplied sources as members of the broader Mesopotamian conception of non-divine, nonhuman spirits associated with the unseen world and the underworld; the provided materials do not contain a dedicated primary text about Galla, so specific attributes remain uncertain and must be inferred from related Mesopotamian spirit categories (e.g., udug/utukku, Pazuzu).

Galli

The galli are ritual specialists associated with the Phrygian goddess Cybele (Magna Mater) and her consort Attis who, in Hellenistic and Roman contexts, performed ecstatic mourning rites, adopted feminine presentation, and in some accounts underwent castration. They functioned as liminal performers of sacred ecstasy and mediators of the goddess’s power within an officially recognized foreign cult in Rome from the early 3rd century BCE onward.

Gallû (gallu)

In the supplied sources, gallû (gallu) are identified as underworld spirit‑beings of Sumerian and ancient Mesopotamian religion, commonly labeled in English as demons or devils of the Mesopotamian Underworld. The name has been reused in modern fantasy role‑playing material, which adapts the term with additional fictional traits.

Galtxagorri (Galtzagorris)

Galtxagorri (also spelled Galtzagorris in the cited tourism material) are described in the supplied source as tiny elfin beings from Basque mythology who are presented in a local Zarautz tourism experience where they are hidden around the town's historic monuments for families to find.

Gamayun

Gamayun (Russian: Гамаю́н) is a prophetic, wisdom-bearing bird of Russian folklore, normally depicted as a large bird with a woman's head that "spreads divine messages and prophecies" and "knows everything of all creation, gods, heroes, and man." She is placed in the mythic geography on an island in the east near paradise and is presented as a symbol of wisdom rather than a hostile creature.

Gambo (cryptid)

Gambo is the name applied in modern cryptozoological and popular accounts to a carcass discovered on Bungalow Beach, The Gambia, in 1983; treated in sources as a globster or candidate sea‑serpent and discussed within the 'prehistoric survivor' paradigm of cryptozoology.

Gamigin

Gamigin (also Samigina, Gamygin/Gamygyn) is a Goetic spirit attested in late-medieval to early-modern demonological grimoires (notably The Lesser Key of Solomon and Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum). Described as a marquis who commands legions, he is reported to teach liberal arts and to compel certain souls (drowned and those in purgatory) into airy bodies to answer questions; in Thomas Rudd's tradition he is opposed by the Shemhamphorasch angel Ieuiah.

Gamma Corps

Fictional Marvel Comics gamma-irradiated supersoldiers assembled as military units. Two distinct iterations appear in Hulk-related storylines: the original Gamma Corps (World War Hulk tie-in) and a later Gamma Corps: Black roster tied to Dark Reign-era plots.

Gamora

Gamora is a fictional character created by Jim Starlin for Marvel Comics (first appearing in Strange Tales #180, June 1975). In Marvel continuity she is presented as the adopted daughter of Thanos, an elite warrior and assassin described as one of the last members of her species and who appears across numerous cosmic storylines and film adaptations.
