📖 Ancient Restoration Teutates was a Celtic god who was worshiped in ancient Gaul and Britain. His name is related to the concept of the túath, & means "father of the tribe". The tribe was seen as having divine life-force to the ancient Celts.
Almost all rivers in Celtic Europe have female names, reflecting the maternal deity to whom the river belonged. In Ireland the Boyne was owned by Boann ('white cow of plenty'). Sequana presided over the Seine, while the Marne derives its name from Matrona ('divine goddess')
