Proto-Celtic paganism

Proto-Celtic paganism was the beliefs of the speakers of Proto-Celtic and includes topics such as the mythology, legendry, folk tales, and folk beliefs of early Celtic culture. By way of the comparative method, Celtic philologists, a variety of historical linguists, have proposed reconstructions of entities, locations, and concepts with various levels of security in early Celtic folklore and mythology (reconstructions are indicated by the presence of an asterisk). The present article includes both reconstructed forms and proposed motifs from the early Celtic period.

Deities

Proto-Celtic reconstruction Ancient Goidelic Brittonic Etymology Notes
*Belenos[1] Gaul. Belenus[2]
–
 W Belyn[2] Traditionally derived from PIE *bʰelH- ('white, shining'), although this has come under criticism in recent scholarship.[1][3] The river name Bienne and the place name Bienne attest of a feminine form *Belenā.[1] See Belenos for further discussion.

A term common to Celtic and Germanic, where a war-goddess is known as Badu-henna. The meaning 'crow', a bird symbolizing the carnage in battle, emerged later in Celtic languages.[4][6] Middle Irish bodb must be understood as the 'bird on the battlefield and manifestation of the war-goddess'.[5] See Bodb Derg and Badb for further discussion.

*adbertā[58] 'offering, victim'
–
 OIr. edbart[58] OW aperth[58] From PCelt. *ad- ('to') attached to *ber-tā < *ber-o- ('carry, bring, bear').[59] The OIr. word is the verbal noun of ad-opair < *ad-uss-ber-o ('sacrifices, offers').[58]
*adgaryos[60][61] 'summoner' (or 'accuser') Gaul. adgarion[60] OIr. accrae[60]
–
 From PCelt. *ad- ('to') attached to *gar-yo- ('call, cry').[61] See also OIr. ad-gair ('summon, subpoena') < *ad-gar(i)et. The OIr. accrae ('complaint') <*ad-garion is also only used in legal contexts, although the original PCelt. meaning may have been 'to summon the deities [as witnesses]' (cf. OIr. deogaire 'seer' < *dewo-garios 'who summons the deity').[60]
*anamon-[62] 'soul'
–
 OIr. anim[62] MBret. eneff;[62] Anaffoun (pl.)[63] From PIE *h2enh1-mon- ('breath').[62] The Insular Celtic forms were influenced by the Lat. cognate anima.[62] See also anaon ('souls of the dead' in Breton mythology);[64] and Gaulish anatia 'souls'.[65]
*awe-[66] 'poetic inspiration'
–
 OIr. aui[66] MW awen[66] Related to PCelt. *awelā ('breeze, wind'), itself from PIE *h2uh1-el- (id.).[66] The PCelt. reconstruction is difficult because the OIr. and MW forms do not agree. MoBret. awen ('inspiration') is a loanword from Welsh.[66]
*bardos[67][68] 'bard, poet' Gaul. bardo-[67][68] MIr. bard[67][68] MW bardd, MBret. barz, OCo. barth[67][68] From PIE *gʷrH-dʰh₁-o-s ('praise-maker').[67][68] See Bard for further discussion
*brihtu-[69] 'magical formula, incantation' Gaul. brixta[69] OIr. bricht[69] MW -brith, OBret. brith[69] Perhaps from PIE *bherg̍h- ('enlighten'), or related to PCelt. *berxto- ('bright, beautiful').[69] See Brixta for further discussion.

 From PIE *dh2p-no- ('offering').[70] See Aois-dàna, 'people of the arts; poet'.
*dedm-[71] 'rite, ceremony'
–
 OIr. deidmea[71] MW deuawt, OBret. domot[71] From PIE *dhedh(h1)m- ('custom').[71] The reconstruction of the vowel in PCelt. *dedmV- is difficult: OBret. domot points to *dedmāto- while OIr. deidmea points to *dedmi-.[71]
*druwid(e)s[57][72] 'priest, druid' Gaul. druides[57] OIr. druí[57]
–
 Presumably from PIE *dru- ('oak') attached to *weyd- ('see, know').[57] The Brittonic forms MW derwydd and OBret. dorguid come from *do-are-wid- ('who sees beyond').[72] See Druid for further discussion.
*ferissā[73] 'religion, belief'
–
 OIr. iress[73]
–
 Probably from PIE *peri-dh1-teh2.[73]

*kaylo-[77] 'omen' Gaul. caelo-, CIb. caeilo-[77][47]
–
 OW coil(i)ou, OBret. coel, OCo. chuillioc[77] From PIE *keh2ilo- ('whole, wealthy').[77] Source of PCelt. *dus-kaylo- (bad omen'; cf. Gaul. dus-celi-, OIr. do-chél) and *su-kaylo- ('good omen'; cf. Gaul. su-caelo, MW hy-goel).[47] OIr. cél is a loanword from Welsh.[77]
*kentu-samonyo-[78] 'May'
–
 OIr. cétamain[78] MW kintevin[78] A compound of *kentu ('first') and *samon- ('summer').[78] Meaning 'first summer'.[78]
*krābri-[79] 'devotion, religious practice'
–
 OIr. crábud[79] MW crefydd[79] Unclear etymology.[79] MW crefydd is built on a yo-suffix and OIr. crábud on a itu-suffix.[79]
*kreddī-[80] 'believe'
–
 OIr. creitid[80] MW credu, MBret. crediff, OCo. cresy[80] From PIE *ḱred-dheh1- ('believe, trust').[80] The geminate must be recent since PIE *dd would have yielded PCelt. *ss.[80]
*kreddīmā[80] 'faith, believing'
–
 OIr. cretem[80] MBret. critim[80] Verbal noun of *kreddī-.[80]
*kredro/i[81] 'relic, sacred object'

 OIr. cretair[81] OW creirriou, MBret. kreir, Co. crêr[81] Related to *kreddī- ('believe').[81]
*(f)litu-[82] 'festival, celebration' Gaul. litu-[82][10] OIr. líth[82] OBret. lit[82] Unclear etymology.[82] The absence of cognates in other Indo-European languages makes the PCelt. reconstruction (*flitu- or *litu-) uncertain.[82]
*marwo-natu-[83] 'funerary poem, eulogy'
–
 OIr. marbnad[83] MW marwnad[83] A compound of PCelt. *marwo- ('dead') and *natu- ('poem').[83] The compound, pertaining to poetic language, can probably be projected back to Proto-Celtic.[83]
*meldo-[84] 'lightning, hammer of the thunder-god' Gaul. Meldio[84]
–
 MW Mellt[84] Cognate with PGmc *meldunjaz and PBalt-Slav. mild-n-.[84] See Perkwunos#Thunder-god's_weapon
*natu-[85] 'poem, song, incantation' Gaul. natia, nato-[85] OIr. nath[85] MW nad[85] Probably from PIE *(s)neh1- ('sew').[85] The semantic development could be explained in terms of poetic metaphors, whereby a poem is identified with a thread.[85]
*nemetom[86][87] 'sacred grove, sanctuary' Gaul. nemēton, CIb. nemeto-[86][87] OIr. nemed[86] OBritt. Nemetona, OW -nivet, OBret. -nimet[86][87] A t-stem derived from PIE *némos ('sacrifice'), itself from *nem- ('distribute'),[87] or possibly related to PCelt. *nemos ('heaven').[86][88] Related to or borrowed into PGmc *nemedaz ('holy grove'). Greek (némos) and Latin (nemus) share the meaning 'forest, (holy) clearance', which evolved from the PIE sense 'what is distributed, sacrifice' (cf. Skt námas- 'worship, honour', Alb. nëmë 'curse, imprecation').[87] See Nemeton, goddesses Nemetona and Arnemetia, tribe Nemetes.
*nemos[86] 'heaven, sky'
–
 OIr. nem[86] OW nem, OBret. nem, OCo. nef[86] From PIE *nebhos ('cloud, cloudy sky').[86] The irregular *-m- of the Celtic forms is best explained as the result of assimilation (n ...bh > n ...m).[86]
*noybo-[89] 'holy' Gaul. noibo-[89][90] OIr. noíb[90][90]
–
 From PIE *noybhos.[90]
*rūnā[91] 'secret, magic' Gaul. -runus (?), Lep. Runatis (?)[91] OIr. rún[91] MW rin, MBret. rin, Co. rin-[91] Related to PGmc *rūnō ('secret, mystery').[91] Gaul. Cobrunus (< *com-rūnos 'confident') is probably cognate with MW cyfrin, MBret. queffrin and MIr. comrún ('shared secret, confidence'); Lep. Runatis may be derived from *runo-ātis ('belonging to the secret').[92] See Runes#Etymology.
*samoni-[93] 'assembly, (feast of the) first month of the year' Gaul. Samon-[93] MIr. Samain[93]
–
 From PIE *smHon- ('reunion, assembly').[93] Name of a month or feast. The original meaning is best explained as 'assembly (of the living and the dead)' (cf. OIr. -samain 'swarm'). Links to PCelt. *samon- ('summer') appear to be folk etymologies.[94][93] See Samhain for further discussion.
*sakro-[95] 'consecrated, cursed' Gaul. sacro-[96][95]
–
 MW hagr, MBret. hagr, Co. hager[95] From PIE *sh2k-ro- ('sacred').[95] The Brittonic cognates mean 'ugly', i.e. 'cursed' < 'consecrated to infernal, malevolent deities'. The original meaning was probably close to that of Latin sācer, meaning 'consecrated', but also 'worthy to be sacrificed', 'cursed'.[96][95] Cognate to Latin sacerdos, 'priest'.
*sedo- ~ *sīdos[97] 'tumulus (inhabited by supernatural beings), peace' Gaul. sedum, sidum[97] OIr. síd[97] MW hedd, OBret. hed[97] From PIE sēds gen. sedos ('seat').[97] See sidhe.
*soyto-[98] 'magic'
–
–
 MW hud, MBret. hud, Co. hus[97] Probably originally identical to PIE *soito- ('string, rope'), from *seh2i- ('to bind').[97][46] Cognate with PGmc *saidaz ('magic, charm') and Lith. saitas ('soothsaying, talisman').[46] Source of PCelt. *soyto-lo- ('charming, illusory')[97]
*to-fare-ufo-kan-o-[99] 'prophesise'
–
 OIr. do-aurchain[99] MW darogan[99] From PCelt. to-fare- ('towards'), attached to *ufo- ('under') and *kan-o- ('sing').[99]
*wātis[100] 'seer, sooth-sayer' Gaul. wáteis[100] OIr. fáith[100]
–
 From PIE *weh2-ti- ('prophet').[100] See vates.
*wātus[101] 'poetic inspiration'
–
 OIr. fáth[101] MW gwawd[101] From PIE *weh2-tu- ('prophesy').[100]
*weletos[102][103] 'seer' Gaul. uelets[103] OIr. filed[103] MW gwelet, MBret. guelet[103] From PIE *wel-o- ('to see').[102] OIr. filed is the genitive form of filí ('poet, seer'). The ancient Germanic Weleda, the name of a seeress, is most likely a borrowing from Gaulish *ueletā ('seeress'), with regular Germanic sound shift -t- > -d-.[103]
*widlmā[104] 'seeress, sorceress' Gaul. uidluas[104] Fedelm[104] W gwyddon[104] From PCelt. *wēdo- ('sight, presence').[105] Gaul. uidluas may be a genitive form of *uildua, in which case it may be derived from *widlmā with lenition (like in anuana < *anman- 'name').[104]
*yālo-[106] 'praise, worship'
–
 OIr. áil[106] MW iawl, OBret. iolent[106] From PIE *(H)yeh2lo- ('zeal').[106]

With both Welsh and Irish evidence leading us to believe that there was a Celtic god known as Fionn in Ireland, and as Gwynn in Wales, we turn to the Gallic evidence. In Gaul we have already found the element Vind, from which both Fionn and Gwynn derive through a form *Vindos, appearing in a god-name Vindonnus.
