298 Myths and Legends of the Celtic Race[347][350]Roman times, and dedicated to him under the name of Nodens,has been discovered at Lydney, by the Severn. On a bronzeplaque found near the spot is a representation of the god. Heis encircled by a halo and accompanied by flying spirits and byTritons. We are reminded of the Danaan deities and their closeconnexion with the sea; and when we find that in Welsh legendan epithet is attached to Nudd, meaning “of the Silver Hand”(though no extant Welsh legend tells the meaning of the epithet),we have no difficulty in identifying this Nudd with Nuada of theSilver Hand, who led the Danaans in the battle of Moytura. 217Under his name Lludd he is said to have had a temple on thesite of St. Paul's in London, the entrance to which, according toGeoffrey of Monmouth, was called in the British tongue ParthLludd, which the Saxons translated Ludes Geat, our presentLudgate.GODS OF THE HOUSE OF DŌNManoganMāthonwy+---------+------+Māth(wealth,increase)Beli-------+------Dōn(Death, (Mother-goddess,Irish Bilé) Irish Dana)217 See p. 107.
