"Cernunnos" is believed by some Celticists to be an obscure epithet of a better attested Gaulish deity; perhaps the god described in the [[interpretatio Romana]] as [[Mercury (mythology)|Mercury]] or [[Dis Pater]], which are considered to share Cernunnos's [[psychopomp]] or [[chthonic]] associations. The name has only appeared once with an image, when it was inscribed on the ''[[Pillar of the Boatmen|Nautae Parisiaci]]'' (the sailors of the [[Parisii (Gaul)|Parisii]], who were a tribe of [[Gauls]]). Otherwise, variations of the name Cernunnos has also been found in a Celtic inscription written in [[Greek alphabet|Greek characters]] at [[Montagnac, Hérault|Montagnac]], [[Hérault]] (as καρνονου, ''karnonou'', in the [[dative case]]). A [[Vulgar Latin|Gallo-Latin]] [[adjective]] ''carnuātus'', "horned", is also found.<ref>Equivalent to Latin ''cornutus'', "horned"; Delamarre, citing J. Vendryes, ''Revue Celtique'' 42 (1925) 221–222.</ref> ==Epigraphic evidence碑文学的証拠 ==

プロト・ケルト語のテオニムの形態は、*''Carno-on-os''として再構築されている。マポノス、エポナ、マトロエナ、シローナなどのように、増大詞の-on-はテオニムの特徴である<ref>Delamarre, citing M.

「ケルヌンノス」は、ケルト人によっては、ガリア神話の中でもっとよく知られた神の不明瞭な蔑称であると信じている。おそらく『ローマ語訳（Interpretatio Romana）』にメルクリウスまたはディス・パテルとして記述されている神で<ref name="Anne Ross 1967"/>、ケルヌンノスの精神文化または神々の関連性を共有していると考えられていた<ref name=Breviary2005>Celtic Culture: A Historical Encyclopedia, Breviary A., Kock John T., ABC-CLIO, volume1, 2005, Celticism, pages396, isbn:978-1851094400, id:f899xH_quaMC, page=396</ref>。この名前は一度だけ図像付きで登場し、「船乗りの柱（ガリア人の一族であるパリシイ族の船員による））」に刻まれた。その他、エロー県モンタニャックのギリシャ文字で書かれたケルト語の碑文にも、ケルヌンノスの名前のバリエーションが見られる（καρνονου, karnonou, in dative case）<ref>Xavier Delamarre, ''Dictionnaire de la langue gauloise'' (Éditions Errance, 2003), pp. 106–107.</ref>。ガロ・ラテン語の形容詞carnuātus「角のある」も発見されている<ref>Equivalent to Latin ''cornutus'', "horned"; Delamarre, citing J.

Due to the lack of surviving Gaulish literature regarding mythologies about Cernunnos, stories with various possible epithets he might have had, or information regarding religious practices and followers, his overall significance in Gaulish religious traditions is unknown. Interpretations of his role within Gaulish culture vary from seeing him as a god of animals, nature and fertility to a god of travel, commerce and bi-directionality.<ref>{{cite book |last=Green |first=Miranda |title=Animals in Celtic Life and Myth |pages=227–8 |year=1992 |publisher=Routledge}} https://ceisiwrserith.com/therest/Cernunnos/cernunnospaper.htm</ref> The only evidence that has survived are inscriptions found on various artifacts.
