{{See also|Wheel of the Year}}
The wheel, more specifically the [[chariot]] wheel with six or eight [[spoke]]s, was an important symbol in historical [[Celtic polytheism]], apparently associated with a specific god, known as the wheel-god, identified as the sky- sun- or thunder-god, whose name is attested as Taranis by [[Lucan]].<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=km66Nu4d-34C&dq=Celtic+wheels&pg=RA1-PA117|title=Symbol and Image in Celtic Religious Art|isbn=9780415080767|last1=Green|first1=Miranda|year=1992}}</ref> Numerous Celtic coins also depict such a wheel. The half-wheel shown in the Gundestrup cauldron [[Gundestrup cauldron#Plate C: Broken Wheel|"broken wheel" panel]] also has eight visible spokes.{{Citation needed|date=November 2019}}
