Lusitanian mythology

Lusitanian mythology is the mythology of the Lusitanians, the Indo-European-speaking people that inhabited the westernmost portion of the Iberian Peninsula, in what became known as Lusitania following its conquest by Rome. In present times, the territory comprises the central part of Portugal and small parts of Extremadura in northwest Spain.

Lusitanian deities heavily influenced all of the religious practices in western Iberia, including Gallaecia, with their beliefs and practices becoming intermingled with those of the Roman gods as part of the romanization of the peninsula. Recently, a Vasconian substrate is starting to be recognized.
