Raacca

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This article about a deity appears to be a hoax. I cannot find any relevant sources about Raacca on Google. A Google Books search returns irrelevant results. This article was tagged as a hoax by, who questioned the article's validity per the following content that s/he removed from the article:

Other than that, not much has been documented about Raacca.

==Modern-Day Belief==

It is believed that Raacca selects her chosen every 900-1,000 years. The last known "chosen one" is documented to have existed exactly 1,000 years ago from today (7/19/2010) Some cultures still choose to believe that Raacca indeed exists and will make her next selection very soon. It is not known whether or not she has chosen.

 * As User:Cunard says I spotted this probable hoax, my understanding is that there are no worshippers of the old Sumerian gods still around today, let alone "some cultures". Plus some of the other things feel varnished and insane.  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers  22:38, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
