Dôn
By Jimmy Joe
Don was the mother-goddess, similar to Danu the mother of the Tuatha dé Danann.
Don was the daughter of Mathonwy and sister of Math. She married Beli, the god of death. Don was the mother of Amathon, Aranrhod, Gilvaethwy, Govannon, Gwydyon and Nudd.
Her children represented the tribal deities of light as opposed to the children of Llyr, who were the deities of darkness.
