Telo (mythology)

Telo is a Celtic god, the eponymous spirit of Toulon in the Var. He was the deity of the sacred spring around which the ancient settlement sprang up. A series of dedications to Telo come from Périgueux nearby: on three of these Telo is invoked with another deities: the goddesses Sianna(in 3 inscriptions)[1][2][3] and Vesunna (in one inscription)[4] .[5] The etymology of the deities Telo and Sianna is close related with Roman Apollo and Diana.[6][7]
