Description
Camulus - God of War
In the ancient Celtic pantheon, Camulus or Camulos was a theonym for a god whom the Romans equated with Mars by interpretatio romana.[1] He was an important god of early Britain and Gaul, especially among the Belgae and the Remi,[1] a Gaulish tribe who lived in the area of modern northern France, around Reims.
Camulus is named in combination with Mars in five inscriptions coming from Reims,[2] Arlon,[3] Rindern,[4] Mainz,[5] and Bar Hill, Scotland.[6] The name Camulos appears independently in one votive inscription from Rome.[7]
At Rindern, Germany, Mars Camulos appears on a stone with a corona of oak.[1] Elsewhere he was portrayed with a ram-horned head.[1] Evidence of his popularity can be seen in several place-names notably Camulodunum.[1] Attempts to link him with the nursery character Old King Cole and Fionn's father Cumhall have been rejected by contemporary scholars.[1]
The town Camulodunum (now Colchester) in Essex may have been named after him, and is the possible basis for the legendary city Camelot.[8]
