cofgod A ''Cofgod'' (plural ''Cofgodas'' ("cove gods")) was a household god in Anglo-Saxon paganism. The Classicist Ken Dowden opined that the ''cofgodas'' were the equivalent of the ''Penates'' found in Ancient Rome. Dowden also compared them to the Kobolds of later German folklore, arguing that they had both originated from the ''kofewalt'', a spirit that had power over a room.〔 It is generally accepted that the English hob and Anglo-Scottish brownie are the modern survival of the ''cofgod''.〔"Cove-Gods", ''An Other Dictionary''.〕 ==References==
