ENT_WEL_BRAN,PER_CEL_IRON_AGE Brân the Blessed ENT_WEL_BRAN Celtic Iron Age PER_CEL_IRON_AGE low The Celtic severed-head cult documented archaeologically from the Iron Age (Roquepertuse, Entremont; La Tène period) provides the probable cultic substrate for Brân's speaking head tradition; Green (1992) argues for continuity between Iron Age head-cult practice and the Mabinogi narrative; confidence is low as there is no direct inscription or attestation for a "Brân" figure in the Iron Age SRC_GREEN_CELTIC_GODS reviewed
ENT_WEL_DON,PER_CEL_IRON_AGE Dôn ENT_WEL_DON Celtic Iron Age PER_CEL_IRON_AGE low The name Dôn has been compared to Irish Danu and potentially to Gaulish divine-mother figures; if the comparison holds, the divine-mother prototype has Iron Age currency across the Celtic world; confidence is low because the equation of Dôn with Danu is debated and because the Irish Danu herself barely appears in the texts (she too is known primarily through her children's epithets) SRC_GREEN_CELTIC_GODS reviewed
ENT_WEL_LLEU_LLAW_GYFFES,PER_CEL_IRON_AGE Lleu Llaw Gyffes ENT_WEL_LLEU_LLAW_GYFFES Celtic Iron Age PER_CEL_IRON_AGE medium Gaulish *Lugus is attested in Iron Age inscriptions from Spain (Uxama Argaela; the Celtiberian city Lugudunum) and is the probable common Celtic prototype for Lugh (Irish) and Lleu (Welsh); the "many-skilled" deity prototype has Pan-Celtic Iron Age currency; confidence is medium because the Welsh Lleu's specific mythology is only preserved in medieval texts SRC_GREEN_CELTIC_GODS reviewed
ENT_WEL_RHIANNON,PER_CEL_IRON_AGE Rhiannon ENT_WEL_RHIANNON Celtic Iron Age PER_CEL_IRON_AGE low The etymology *Rigantona ("Great Queen") and the Epona parallel suggest her divine prototype has roots in Iron Age Celtic religion; her horse-goddess attributes (the impossible white horse, the processional approach) parallel the Gaulish Epona cult documented in Iron Age and Roman-period inscriptions; confidence is low because no direct Iron Age textual evidence for a Welsh Rhiannon-figure exists SRC_GREEN_CELTIC_GODS reviewed
