Dimstipatis is a masculine deity in Lithuanian mythology. Based on scant sources, some mythologists have reconstructed it as one of the Lithuanian household gods, the guardian of houses and carer of house fire. According to the reconstructions, people sacrificed roosters and black hens to the deity. Birds were boiling; later people were getting down around the kettle and eating boiled birds. Bones were burning. Sometimes Dimstipatis is reconstructed as a god of housewives, to whom pigs were sacrificed. Dimstipatis was also seen as a power, protecting for fires.
