Behind the Mythos[edit | edit source]

Groth-Golka was created by Robert E. Howard for the non-Cthulhu Mythos story "The Gods of Bal-Sagoth". Lin Carter incorporated these gods into the Mythos, but for a time confused Groth-Golka and Gol-goroth. Efforts have been made to untangle the confusion.^{[citation needed]}
