Revisiting the Horned God (and Goddess?)

London is a magnet for Horned Goddesses: from the patroness of London, Elen of the Ways, who is said to have appeared to Chesca Potter in St Pancras Old Church, to the theorised deities of Flinders Petrie and Harold Peake, to the Gallo-Roman figurine of a seated antlered woman held in the British Museum (room 69).
Dr Anna Milon discusses why Horned Goddesses have held such fascination for us over the past century, and what they have to do with their better-known counterpart, the Horned God. And speaking of the British Museum figurine, who is she? Our speaker holds that she is the goddess Rosmerta, usually a consort of Mercury, but this time associated with Cernunnos.
