Product Details

after two 1st century finds from Vindonissa Switzerland and Albaniana Netherlands. This bracelet was

probably worn by an officer when acting as a priest. Cicolluis or Cicoluis (also known as Cicollus, Cicolus, Cicollui, and Cichol) is a god in Celtic mythology worshiped by the ancient Gaulish peoples and having a parallel in Ireland. The name is Gaulish and means“All-Breast” or “Great-Breasted” and is probably used to signifystrength. In the Gallo-Roman religion, Cicolluis is thought to be acommon epithet for Gaulish Mars. A Latin dedicatory inscription from Narbonne (which was in the far south of Gaul), France, bears the words MARTI CICOLLUI Mars Cicolluis.
