Halilintar / Thunderbolt

Thunderbolt
A thunderbolt is a traditional expression for a discharge of lightning or a symbolic representation thereof. In its original usage the word may also have been a description of meteors^[1], although this is not currently the case. As a divine manifestation it has been a powerful symbol throughout history, and has appeared in many mythologies. Drawing from this powerful association, the thunderbolt is often found in military symbolism and semiotic representations of electricity.
Lightning plays a role in many mythologies, often as the weapon of a sky and storm god. As such, it is an unsurpassed method of dramatic instantaneous retributive destruction: thunderbolts as divine weapons can be found in many mythologies.

• In Hindu mythology, the god Indra is known as the god of lightning. His main weapon is the thunderbolt (Vajra).
• In Hittite and Hurrian mythology, a triple thunderbolt was one symbol of Teshub.
• In Greek mythology, the thunderbolt is a weapon given to Zeus by the Cyclops.
• In Roman mythology, the thunderbolt is a weapon given to Jupiter by the Cyclops.
• In Germanic mythology, Thor is specifically the god of thunder and lightning, wielding Mjolnir.
• In Maya mythology, Huracan is sometimes represented as three lightning bolts.
