Korean Mythological Pantheon

Tamonten
Tamonten is a label attested in available sources in two different classificatory contexts: one places the name within the cosmology of Buddhist devas (the Cāturmahārājakāyika, the realm associated with the Four Heavenly Kings), and a separate modern dataset entry links the same label to the category "tengu in Japan." The supplied materials are fragmentary and do not provide a unified account of Tamonten as an individual figure.

In the novel he is a devout, compassionate pilgrim sent from Chang'an to Tianzhu to retrieve the Tripiṭaka; portrayed as a reincarnation of the Golden Cicada, he is protected by supernatural disciples and is ultimately elevated to the Buddha of Sandalwood Merit.
Tangaloa
Tangaloa is a family of sky-associated divine personages in Tongan mythology whose members together occupy roles tied to rulership of the sky and genealogical links between heavenly beings and human chiefly lines. The name is a Polynesian cognate found across island traditions with variable local functions.
Tangaroa
Tangaroa is a principal Polynesian atua of oceanic realms — in Māori tradition he is the great atua of the sea, lakes, rivers, and creatures within them, especially fish. Cognate figures (Tagaloa, Tangaloa, Taʻaroa, Kanaloa) appear across Polynesia with varying rank and functions from departmental sea-god to supreme creator in regional traditions.
Taniwha
In Māori tradition, a taniwha is a class of large, place‑bound supernatural beings associated with deep pools, caves, rivers and the sea. They can act as kaitiaki (protective guardians) of tribes and places or as dangerous, predatory creatures that punish violations of tapu and sometimes attack or abduct people.
Tannin (Jewish Tradition)
A sea monster from Jewish tradition, representing chaos and evil in Canaanite and Hebrew mythology.

Tano (Ta Kora)
Tano (also written Tanoɛ), identified in one source as Ta Kora (also Tando in Fante), is an Abosom in Akan/Asante religion associated with war and strife and, in Asante accounts, with thunder and lightning. The supplied materials treat Tano primarily as a named member of the Akan Abosom category rather than providing extended mythic narratives or iconography.
Tantalus
Tantalus is a figure of ancient Greek myth: a once-mortal king punished eternally in Hades/Tartarus as an exemplar of hubris and the consequences of violating divine law. His canonical image—standing in water beneath fruit that recedes or branches that elude him, or beneath a suspended rock—functions proverbially to signify unreachable gratification.
