Himavat (himavant-) is the Hindu God of snow, a personification of the Himalayan mountains. Himavat fathered the more prominent Parvati and Ganga, wife of Shiva and river goddess respectively. His wife and queen consort is vedic Mena or Menaka, the god Brahma dauther.
Sanskrit himavant- translates to "having much snow". Sanskrit himá "frost, snow" is cognate to Latin hiems "winter" from PIE ghyem-.
