Ernmas

In Irish myths, she was a mother goddess. Ernmas was the daughter of Etarlam, who was the son of Nuada.

Ernmas was the mother of a son named Fiachna and three daughters who were the three sovereignty goddesses of Ireland – Banha, Fodla and Eriu. According to one version, her son impregnated her with these three daughters. Sometimes, Eirnin was said to be the mother of the three goddesses.

Ernmas was possibly the mother of the three war goddesses: Morrigan, Badb and Macha; she was also the mother of Dana (Ana). Their father was Delbáeth, son of Angus Og and Eithne.

Ernmas was killed in the First Battle of Magh Tuiredh.
