Pillan
Powerful, respected male spirits in Mapuche cosmology associated with the realm of good (Wenumapu) and with volcanoes on Earth; they are moral enforcers and benefactors who receive communal ritual attention (ngillatun) and may punish (or allow the wekufe to punish) with drought, flood, earthquakes, or disease. Antü is named as the most powerful Pillan, and female counterparts called Wangulen accompany them.
Pillywiggin
Pillywiggins are very small faery or 'little people' in English and Irish folkloric compilations who function as guardians and personifications of spring flowers and small flora.

Pinga
Pinga is an Inuit goddess associated with the hunt, the well‑being of animals (especially caribou in Caribou Inuit contexts), and with medicine.
