I was interested in looking at all of the Hindu Gods and Goddesses. There are a lot! This article mentions the beginning of some of these deities in the Vedic period.
c. 1500 – c. 500 BCE started around the late Bronze Age. This age followed the Indus Valley Civilization,
and contributed to many incredible innovations. The Kuru Kingdom followed after.
Took place in the Iron Age. The Kuru kingdom decisively changed the religious heritage of the early Vedic period, arranging their ritual hymns into collections called the Vedas, and developing new rituals which gained their position in Indian civilization as the srauta rituals,which contributed to the so-called "classical synthesis" or "Hindu synthesis". - wiki
