 Cernunnos: (Celtic)
Horned God and Consort of the Lady. Cernunnos wears the torc (neck-ring) and is ever in the company of a ram-headed serpent and a stag. Extremely popular among the Celts, the Druids encouraged the worship of Cernunnos, attempting to replace the plethora of local deities and spirits with a national religion. The Celts were so enamored of Cernunnos that his cult was a serious obstacle to the spread of Christianity. Also Kernunnos. (Ref 2) The lord of nature, animals, fruit, grain, and prosperity. He is usually depicted wearing the sacred torc often associated with the Continental Celts.
