Curious! I don't know of any culture that deified gravity. Plenty that deified the sun, wind, sea, etc. It seems like a glaring omission! This mysterious force that pulls everything down and causes so much mischief, and no one in the ancient world sought to blame a god for that.

Perhaps the reason is that gravity is so consistently even-handed a deity. No cycles or torments, no regional variation, just the same exact instantaneous acceleration for all mortals and their measurements. Gravity is in that sense, indirectly venerated through its measure as weight.

"This mysterious force that pulls everything down and causes so much mischief"

The mischief of beeing tied to this celestial body and not being able to float in space?
