Serpents as protectors and powers

These entries show serpent beings as more than monsters. They may guard water, lineage, land, shrines, or vows, and their worship varies sharply by region.

Names and roles overlap

Naga, Nagini, and Nagadevata can overlap in popular speech, but the archive treats each page as a distinct entry with its own regional and ritual context.
