'''Tomor''' was the king of gods in the Albanian folklore. He was the father of both gods and humans. His consort was a mysterious goddess referred to as ''[[Bukura e dheut]]''. He was attended to by [[wind]]-spirits.
In medieval [[Albanian language|Albanian]] he was referred to as '''''En''''', and his name survives in ''enjtë'', the Albanian word for Thursday.
The cult of Tomor has been linked to [[romantic nationalism]] from many Albanian writers and is most likely brimming with fictious additions<ref>A Dictionary of Albanian Religion, Mythology and Folk culture,page253,by Robert Elsie,2001</ref>.
