	Dyeus
		Dyeus was addressed as Dyeu Ph ter, literally "Sky Father" or "shining father", as reflected in Latin Jupiter, Dispater and deus pater, Greek Zeu pater, Sanskrit.
		As the pantheons of the individual mythologies related to the Proto-Indo-European religion evolved, attributes of Dyeus were sometimes redistributed to other, newer gods.
		In Greek and Roman mythology, Dyeus remained the chief god, while in Vedic mythology, the etymological continuant of Dyeus became a very abstract god, and his original attributes, and his dominance over other gods, were transferred to gods whose names cannot be reconstructed for Proto-Indo-European times, such as Indra.

		First, the root meaning of *dyeus is not "shining," but "bright." The reference may be to the sky generally instead of the sun.
		Further, while Müller assumed "father" to refer to the sun's role as impregnator, fertilizer, of Mother Earth (a reference that works even better for a "sky" father), it is quite possible that the term was already metaphorical for the god's role as an authority figure.
		And finally, *dyeus may already have taken on the general meaning of "divinity" or "god" (English deity is derived ultimately from the same word).

	Dyeus Phater: god
		So Mannu and his children became wise, and learned the ways of the world, and Theoph, fearful of the wisdom Mannu and his children possessed, remains wrapped around the World Tree till the end days, protecting it and but only seldom striking out, biding his time.
		Dghom and I, Dyeus, Earth and Sky, were the most primordial.
		In ancient times, before the rise of the Greek, the Norse and the Celt, before even the Vedic gods, nigh the whole world paid its homage to me. I, Dyeus Phater, the Shining All-father governed the gods of the world, and by that right the world itself.

	cars - Dyaus Pita
		In vedic religion, Dyaus Pita is the Sky Father, husband of Prthivi and father of Agni and Indra (RV 4.17.4).
		His origins can be traced to the Indo-European sky god *Dyeus, who is also reflected as Zeus in Greek mythology, Jupiter (from Latin Iove pater, "father-god") in Roman mythology, Div in Slavic mythology and Tyr in Norse mythology.
		Sharing a fate similar to nordic Tyr's, already in the Rig Veda, Dyaus Pita is all but featureless, appearing in hymns 1.89, 1.90, 1.164, 1.191 and 4.1 in simple invocations.

		As I understand it, proto-indo-european religion is a theorized ancestor of the various native european faiths and Hinduism.
		Do you see Zeus, Jupitor, and Tyr as the same God (maybe once Dyeus Phater) seen differently by different cultures, three completely seperate Gods, three seperate Gods with similar roles, or something else?
		What about deities in closer cultures, for example, does Thor = Thunor?
