Ašvieniai

Ašvieniai are divine twins in the Lithuanian mythology, identical to Latvian Dieva dēli and the Baltic counterparts of Vedic Ashvins.

[2] Like the Greek Dioscuri Castor and Pollux, they are reflexes of a common Indo-European mytheme, the Divine Twins.

[1] Ašvieniai, depicted as žirgeliai or little horses, are common motifs on Lithuanian rooftops,[1][4] placed for protection of the house.

[5] Similar motifs can also be found on beehives, harnesses, bed frames, and other household objects.

[7] Usins, one of the Ašvieniai, is described as driving a solar chariot pulled across the sky by a pair of white horses.
