Sequana was worshipped at the river’s source with votive offerings of healing. She embodies the restorative power of sacred waters. Poets invoke Sequana to celebrate riverine divinity, the hope of cure, and the ancient reverence for natural springs as portals to the divine.

Sequana is a Gaulish river goddess of the Seine, known from Roman-era inscriptions and votive offerings. Not part of Irish myth, but valuable for comparative studies of Celtic water deities. Students should understand Sequana as representative of continental river worship, often linked to healing. Poets reference her in pan-Celtic or eco-poetic contexts to explore the sanctity of rivers, the universality of water goddesses, or the cultural connections between Insular and continental Celtic traditions—especially when contrasting her with Boann or other Irish figures.
