"Cernunnos is the conventional name given in Celtic studies to depictions of the horned god of Celtic polytheism.The name itself is only attested once, on the 1st-century Pillar of the Boatmen, but depictions of a horned or antlered figure, often seated in a "lotus position" and often associated with animals and holding or wearing torcs, are known from other instances."

Wow! Amazing work! Love it!

I was wandering if you could let me us this image for an Android game called "Kingdoms of Myth", it's turn based strategy game based on a fantasy World. You can find a little bit more info in this rough website made by my colleges [link] (Sorry for the bad English). Of course you will have full credits of your work and link to your webpage if you want :)

Lot of thanks for your time ;)

This is a beautiful piece, a pleasure to the eye.

Can you answer a question for me? Why have you named it "Cerumnos the Horned God" and then given Wikipedia's description of my god, Cernunnos? Is it a typo, or is there a particular reason you chose to alter the name?

Thank you in advance, I'm truly curious.

hi, thanks.
gosh, do you believe I realized only after reading your comment that I wrote the name wrong? XDDD and after all this time? hahah so to answer your question I believe there is no particular reason apart a mispelling of the name!

I guess I'll keep the name as it is now.. thanks for the comment !
