From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia...

"Coventina was a Romano-British goddess of wells and springs. She is known from multiple inscriptions at one site in Northumberland county of the United Kingdom, an area surrounding a wellspring near Carrawburgh on Hadrian's Wall."

Inscribed bas-relief of Coventina

Bas-relief of triple Coventina
"Coventina is known from numerous dedications found at Carrawburgh, Northumberland. Her Carrawburgh sanctuary, which followed a simple, unroofed design similar to that of a small Romano-Celtic temple, was sited beside a well fed by a sacred spring and was associated with the Roman fort of Brocolitia."

"Perhaps the most important water-goddess from northern Britain was Coventina whose cult, like that of Sulis, was concentrated at one particular site, Carrawburgh, on Hadrian's Wall. Her name is Celtic; she was the personified spirit of a spring that welled up out of the ground to feed a pool."
