godlore

noun

1. The study or knowledge of God or gods; theology; divinity; mythology; religion.

   uncountable

   All these have apparently nothing to do with northern mythology, as was first supposed. The whole find has now reached the Danish National Museum, and we see that these pieces belong to the godlore of the Gallic peoples.

Where it comes from

From god + lore (“learning, study of”). Compare German Gotteslehre, Danish gudelære.
