The Phoenicians are fascinating. According to this video they created thier gods from men and women in thier communities that did heroic feats. Man became God for them.
They also supposedly hated that other cultures took those human gods and created larger than life Greek and Egyption gods from them.
It's the only culture ive found so far that was "realistic" in thier beliefs of gods. Very interesting.
