A list of the Gods and Goddesses...
I decided to compile a list of all of the Gods and Goddesses that I will be writing about. This is just as much for organization, as it is for reference. They are separated into their appropriate grouping as well. Hope you enjoy!
This list, by no stretch of the imagination makes me the authority on theology/mythology. What I have written here, is my take on the various Gods and Goddesses found within Celtic Polytheism.
If there is anything that I have missed, misconstrued or that you feel as though should be added, please let me know via the âaskâ section of my page. Thank you, so much!

Smertrios (Smertios, Smertrius) - This is not the name of a God, but more like a title gifted to Gods of War. However, there are depictions that would lead to the belief that Smertrios was deified. Chiefly, a specific image with the water Goddess Ancamma where he is depicted as a bearded god holding a rearing snake in one hand, while the other hand held either a club or a firebrand. Möhn, near Trier, there was a large sacred spring, enclosed by a temple which led to the belief that he could be a God of healing springs and god of plenty.
Sucellos (Sucellus, Sucellos) - Possibly the god of feast and providence, woodland and agriculture. He was consort to Nantosuelta, a Goddess of nature and water. He was often depicted carrying a long-handed hammer and a cauldron, suggesting that those who invoked his name, either ask him for protection or provision. This sort of associated him with the Irish god Dagda, due to the Dagda having a magical Cauldron, and his weapon; a huge club on wheels. Sucellus was also seen accompanied by a raven and a three-headed dog. These link him to the funerary practice.
