Nantosuelta

Celtic

Nantosuelta was the Gallic goddess of nature, the valley and streams. She was the consort of Sucellus, the god of fertility or prosperity.

The Gaul craftsmen depicted Nantosuelta holding a pole topped with a dove-cote. Nantosuelta was a mother goddess or fertility goddess because she was seen carrying a cornucopia.

Her symbol was also the raven, which linked her with the dead and the Underworld.
