*Danu ([ˈd̪anu]) is presumed to have been a goddess in Irish mythology, whose sole attestation is in the name of the Tuatha Dé Danann, which is usually translated 'the folk of the goddess Danu'. Despite a complete absence from the primary texts, some later Victorian folklorists attempted to ascribe certain attributes to Danu, such as association with motherhood or agricultural prosperity.
