She has been revered as the goddess of the Black Forest itself, the goddess of Abnoba Mountain located within the Black Forest and goddess of childbirth. She is the protector of woods, springs, rivers and wild animals. Abnoba's name is derived from the Brythonic root for river (afon or abon). Further broken down, “abo” means river and “no” means wetness in pro-Celtic components. Therefore, her name means “She of River Wetness.”
