Henotheism (from henos theou "of one god") is the worship of a single, supreme God while not denying the existence or possible existence of other lower deities.^[1]^[2] Friedrich Schelling (1775–1854) coined the word, and Friedrich Welcker (1784–1868) used it to depict primitive monotheism among ancient Greeks.^[3]
