Encyclopedia > Artos

In Celtic mythology, (specifically known from Switzerland), Artio was a goddess of wildlife, specifically the bear, and was worshipped at Berne, which actually means "bear". She was often called Artio of Muri. She may have been married to Esus. A similar goddess was Andarta.


Her name is derived from the Celtic word artos, bear, which may also be the source for the modern name Arthur.
