Litavis

Litavis

Litavis (également connu sous le nom Litauis[1], Litaui, Litauia[2],[3], et Llydaw[4]) est une déesse de la mythologie celtique vénéré par les Gaulois. Son nom se trouve sur les inscriptions trouvées à Aignay-le-Duc et Mâlain dans le département de la Côte-d'Or, où elle est invoquée avec le dieu Gallo-romain Mars Cicolluis, dans un contexte qui laisse à penser qu'elle aurait pu être son épouse[5] . De plus, une inscription latine de Narbonne, porte la mention «MARTI CICOLLUI ET LITAVI" ("Mars Cicolluis et Litavis")[2],[3].
