Toutatis

Today I wanted to write about Toutatis, a Gaulish god of protection; and possibly war.

Toutatis is often mentioned alongside two other Gaulish gods, Esus and Taranis, likely his brothers.

He was primarily synchronized with Mercury but at least one source synchronized him with Mars.

The asteroid Toutatis is named after him.

Numerous rings with the inscription TOT have been found in former Roman Britain that have been connected to the worship of Toutatis in the area.
