#donu

Or as I write it, Dánu. Also known as Donu or Deh₂nu

She is the goddess of rivers and fertility. She may be worshiped effectively at local rivers, especially the major river in a watershed, and especially at that river's source.

This source characterizes her as one of the G̑hṃg̑ṇ̄tṓs, twelve primordial deities who existed before the déiwōs. Dánu in specific would become the mother of Dhéghom, Apóm Népots, Diwóna and Dyéus, whose father was another one of the G̑hṃg̑ṇ̄tṓs, Séwətōr. Because of this, the déiwōs are also called Dānéwyōs, that is "children of Dánu".
