Adsullata

In Celtic mythology , Adsullata was a river goddess of the Continental Celts associated with the River Savus (Sava) in Noricum . ^[1]^[2]

Later she came to Brittany from Celtic Gaul and was believed to be a goddess of hot springs and the origin of the Anglo-Celtic sun goddess, Sul .

Etymology [ edit ]

This theonym appears to be derived from Proto-Celtic * Ad-s?g-lat-? . That derivation literally means ( allative ) "sucking liquid", which may have been a byword for the notion of "suck-giving liquid" ^[3] The Romano-British form of this Proto-Celtic reconstruction would likely have been * Adsuglata . ^[4]^[5]^[6]
