The idea it's an actual god might be too far
Prayer in this game is a weird subject, but it's highly implied that it doesn't have much to do with actual religion, but instead summoning the power of the dead to aid you - I'd imagine then that a significant enough cultural icon could have the same power as any traditional alter, just how the Rune Essence memorial to Guthix by falador eventually gathered enough power to become an alter itself just through the community around it, it certainly isn't Guthix that gave it that himself.
.
that's actually a very good explanation!
I always wondered what sense did it make that praying in altars of different gods gave the the exact same benefits, and how even zamorak and bandos worshippers could still use protection prayers
and since getting prayer xp is gained nearly exclusively by honoring the dead in some way or another, everything perfectly fits into place.
