Yer Tanrı is the goddess of earth in Turkic mythology.
With her husband, Gök Tanrı, she was the parent of Ay Tanrı, Umay, Ülgen, Koyash, and Erlik. As a fertility goddess, she was recognized as the giver of crops and abundance. In the spring and in the autumn — before the beginning of the agricultural season and after the harvest — she was worshiped with sacrifices of food.
