Borvo
Borvo or Bormo (Gaulish: *''Borwō'', ''Bormō'') was an ancient Celtic god of healing springs worshipped in Gaul and Gallaecia., s.v. ''Borvo''. He was sometimes identified with the Graeco-Roman god Apollo, although his cult had preserved a high degree of autonomy during the Roman period. Name The Gaulish theonym ''Boruō'' means 'hot spring', 'warm source'. It stems from the Proto-Celtic verbal root *''berw''- ('boil, brew'; cf. Old Irish ''berbaid'', Middle Welsh ''berwi''), itself from Proto-Indo-European *''bʰerw''- ('boil, brew'; cf. Latin ''ferueō'' 'to be intensely hot, boil', Sanskrit ''bhurváni'' 'agitated, wild'). The ''Bhearú'' river (River Barrow) in Ireland has also been linked to this Celtic root. The variant ''Bormō'' could have emerged from a difference in suffixes or from dissimilation. Known derivates include ''Bormanicus'' ( Caldas de Vizela), from an earlier *''Borwānicos'', and ''Bormanus'' or ''Borbanus'' ( Aix-en-Diois, Aix-en-Provence), from an ea ...
