At least 8 of them, pre christian have several 'made up' gods as goddesses. I wonder who made them up? :/
Who ever became leaders, of the pre christian group......And even though the person is long gone, the group serves the gods or goddesses that they chose to believe in...
I don't see Sumeria, it would go back further than the chart.
And the Dilmun before them with their ancient creation myth and tales.
Plus the Vedic tradition goes back at least a thousand years before 2500 BC
And the chart missed another one.
The ancient goddess worship of the "Earth Mother", diversely called Uni, or Gaia, or whatever, later embodied as Hera / Juno, and then still later, transmogrified into the Virgin Mary complete with her token flower of the Lily and other symbols, is one of the oldest 'cults' in the world, and is still going strong today.
Now, as for the "made up" gods and goddesses, I'd love to see a couple of examples of that.
