Goddess?

[edit]

Is there any evidence for Bandua being a goddess? To me, the use of deo seems pretty conclusive in the other direction. Q·L·1968 22:10, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well. His epithets appear to be masculine, although many are of geographic nature (the diversity in the dative endings are the alleged effect of the interference of local Lusitanian/Celtic and Latin + diachronic/synchronic differences): BANDVE AETOBRIGO, BANDV[.] ETOBRICO, BANDVE CADOGO, BANDVE VEIGEBREAEGO, BANDVE VERVBRIGO, BANDVE BOLECCO, BANDV VORDEAECO, BANDE RAEICO, BANDIAE APOLOSEGO, BANDI ARBARIAICO, BANDEI BRIALEACVI, BANDI ISIBRAEGVI, BANDI TATIBIIAICVI, BANDI [L?]ONGOBRICV, BANDI MALVNAICO, BANDI OILIENAICO, BANDI SAISABRO, BANDE VELVGO TOIRAECO, BANDI VORTEAECEO, BANDVE ROVDEAECO... Then we have a BANDVA LANSBRICAE or BANDV ALANSBRICAE, and a silver tray with the legend BAND * ARAVGEL, with the representation of a goddess inside.
