Norsery Rhymes from A to Z Garmangabis, The Rich Giving

Happy Thor’s Day, here's another 20 min sketch of a Norse or Germanic, or Celtic mythological characters. This week it’s Garmangabis / Garmangabi / Germangabis / Eormangafi. A Goddess worshiped at an alter in Longovicium, now Lanchester, Co. Durham, mentioned alongside "Divine spirit of Gordianus our Lord". And in Suebi in Germany.

Her name translated from rom Old English to “vast” or "rich" from 'eormen', and “giving” from 'gife'.

One of the Disir and Dísablót, her worship was either brought by Germans in the Roman army back from England, or brought from Germany to England. She was likely a goddess related providing bountiful food and wealth to her people.
