Rigantona
The name Rigantona is a derivation from the Proto-Celtic word Rigani, meaning Great Queen.
She was the Great Mother Goddess on whom the Brythons relied for their survival from year to year. As such she was their protectress, midwife, and fertility Goddess who travelled with them through the cycle of the year.
She was worshipped as the deity from whom the rivers and springs flowed, the crops grew, the animals produced young, and who was a personification of the Earth itself.
