Frankish mythology comprises the mythology of the Germanic tribe of the Franks, from its roots in polytheistic Germanic paganism through the inclusion of Greco-Roman components in the Early Middle Ages. This mythology flourished among the Franks until the conversion of the Merovingian king Clovis I to Nicene Christianity (circa 500), though there were many Frankish Christians before that. After that, their paganism was gradually replaced by the process of Christianization, but there were still pagans in the Frankish heartland of Toxandria in the late seventh century.
