![]() ![]() Nehalennia is a Goddess of sea travelers Who was worshiped in two sites along the coast of the North Sea in the present day Netherlands. She is known from many votive stelae and altars found at those sites, and is almost always shown with a dog, perhaps as a symbol of loyalty, or as a companion on the journey (which includes the journey to the Afterlife). She is usually depicted in a distinctive (local?) outfit of a cap and short cape. Her name means 'Steerswoman', and She was invoked for safe and profitable sea journeys. Done as the requested Goddess of the month over on my Patreon. This design is available on prints through ArtPal. |
