Danu (Irish Goddess)
In Irish mythology, ''*Danu'' () is the reconstructed mother goddess of the Tuatha dé Danann (Old Irish: "The peoples of the goddess Danu"). Though primarily seen as an ancestral figure, some Victorian sources also associate her with the land. Etymology The hypothetical nominative form of the name, ''*Danu'', is not found in any medieval Irish text, but is rather a reconstruction by modern scholars based on the genitive ''Danann'' (also spelled ''Donand'' or ''Danand''), which is the only form attested in the primary sources (e.g. in the collective name of the Irish gods, '' Tuatha dé Danann'' "Tribe of the Gods of Danu"). In Irish mythology, ''Anu'' (sometimes written as ''Anann'' or ''Anand'') is a goddess. She may be a distinct goddess in her own right or an alternative name for Danu, in which case ''Danu'' could be a contraction of ''*di Anu'' ("goddess Anu"). The etymology of the name has been a matter of much debate since the 19th century, with some earlier schola ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Irish Mythology
Irish mythology is the body of myths native to the island of Ireland. It was originally passed down orally in the prehistoric era, being part of ancient Celtic religion. Many myths were later written down in the early medieval era by Christian scribes, who modified and Christianized them to some extent. This body of myths is the largest and best preserved of all the branches of Celtic mythology. The tales and themes continued to be developed over time, and the oral tradition continued in Irish folklore alongside the written tradition, but the main themes and characters remained largely consistent. The myths are conventionally grouped into ' cycles'. The Mythological Cycle consists of tales and poems about the god-like Túatha Dé Danann, who are based on Ireland's pagan deities, and other mythical races like the Fomorians. Important works in the cycle are the ''Lebor Gabála Érenn'' ("Book of Invasions"), a legendary history of Ireland, the '' Cath Maige Tuired'' ("Ba ...

Delbáeth
Delbáeth or Delbáed (modern spelling: Dealbhaoth or Dealbhaodh) was one of several figures from Irish mythology who are often confused due to the repetition of the name in the mythological genealogies. Name According to the Dindsenchas, the name Delbaeth is derived from Dolb-Aed, meaning "enchanted fire" or "fire shape(d)." Family His father is variously listed as Aengus or Ogma of the Tuatha Dé Danann or Elatha of the Fomorians, and his mother was Ethniu of the Fomorians. He succeeded his grandfather Eochaid Ollathair (“the Dagda”) as High King of Ireland. Delbáeth ruled the united Tuatha Dé Danann and Fomorians for ten years, before dying at the hand of his son, Fiacha. Children His daughters, by Ernmas, were the three eponymous Irish goddesses Ériu, Banba, and Fodla. In some traditions the goddess Eithne is mentioned as his daughter. Portions of ''Lebor Gabála Érenn'' identify Delbáeth as the father of Brian, Iuchar, and Iucharba, and also mention that Delb ...

Brian (mythology)
In Gaelic mythology, Brian (or Uar) was one of the three Sons of Tuireann along with Iuchar and Iucharba. Name In many extant institutionally-held manuscripts of the ''Oidheadh Chlainne Tuireann'', Brian is actually called Uar (or Uair), but the name has been emended by editors to "Brian" which conforms with the name in ancient texts.

Plot In ''Oidheadh Chlainne Tuireann'' (The Tragedy of the Sons of Tuireann), the three set out to kill their father's enemy Cian. Cian is the father of Lugh, one of the greatest of the Tuatha Dé Danann. Cian shapeshifts into a pig to disguise himself, but the brothers shapeshift into dogs and hound him. They kill him, dismember his body and try to cover up their crime. In recompense, Lugh makes them quest all around the known world fetching magical weapons, which Lugh plans to use at the Second B ...
