Animism is an umbrella term for early religions that worship objects and/or animals.

    Doesn't animism pertain to things that are animate, tho? I thought it was worship of living things in particular.

    I remember a lecture long time ago about history of religion and it mentioned rocks, trees and flowers as examples of animism. But my major was very far from that topic, so don't quote me on that.
