the encyclopedia of celtic mythology and folklore: ↳ EponaAmong people whose vision of divinity was so polytheistic that the same name of a god or goddess is rarely found more than once, Epona is an exception, for statues and altars to her have been excavated across continental Europe, the center of her worship, and in Britain – more than for any other god or goddess of the Celts. Yet little is known of this goddess except that she was connected with HORSES. Her name means “horse,” from the Gaulish epos, and she was depicted astride a horse (usually a mare), surrounded by horses, or even occasionally lying naked on the back of one. -- source link
