Icovellauna

Icovellauna

Icovellauna était une déesse celtique vénérée en Gaule. Ses lieux de culte comprenaient un temple octogonal tel celui situé au lieu-dit "Le Sablon" à Metz, à l'origine construit sur une source[1], dans laquelle cinq inscriptions qui lui étaient dédiées ont été retrouvées[2] ; un autre à Trèves, où Icovellauna a été honorée sur une inscription retrouvée dans le temple d'Altbachtal[3],[4]A[›]. Ces deux lieux se trouvent dans la vallée de la Moselle à l'Est de la Gaule, dans ce qui est aujourd'hui la Lorraine en France pour Metz et la Rhénanie-Palatinat en Allemagne pour Trèves.
