in German mythology, was an earth-born god, from whom all Germans are said to have sprung. He was highly esteemed by his son, man. The Druids sacrificed human beings to him. According to the accounts given by Caesar, these sacrifices were made not only in Germany, but throughout the whole of Gaul. Some hold him to be a historic person, others a personified idea.
