Celtic Gods and Goddesses Abilus Commune of Châlons-en-Champagne  This Celtic God was worshipped at Arnay-le-Duc in the Cote-D'or in France, and associated with the Celtic Goddess Damona. Damona was worshipped in Burgandy, France. She seems to have been a Goddess of fertility and healing and was sometimes associated with Apollo Moritasgus, Abilus Bormo, and other Water Gods at healing springs. One inscription links her with the practice of incubation, wherein pilgrims slept at healing shrines to receive cures through dreams. The name Damona means 'great or divine cow.'
