Camulus

Camulus, it would seem, was one of the deities worshipped by the ancient Celts. As a war-god, he would correspond to the Roman Mars; but he seems also in some respects to have resembled Jupiter as well. The name survived in Camulodunum (Colchester), and perhaps in the Irish Cumhal who appears as father of Finn. See Anwyl; C. Squire, Myth.
