Lugh and the sword of light of Nuada. The Tuatha De Danann means the children of the Danu, who are said to have ruled over Ireland some 4000 years ago. Danu is considered to be the mother of all Irish Gods and in Wales they honour her as the Goddess Don, Don and Danu being one and the same.

Danu is also known as , in county Kerry there are two mountains named after her which are known as the . Patricia Monaghan in her book " the encyclopaedia of " writes " Most significantly we find an Irish divine race, thought to represent the God of the Celts called the Tuatha De Danann, the people of the Goddess Danu". In her book Valerie Estelle Frankel writes " It is believed that the Celts started with the concept of a mother Goddess named Danu ( meaning water from heaven ). The name of the Danube river is derived from Danu and evidence shows that Celtic civilisation evolved at the headwaters of the Danube river around this time. Water was venerated as the source of life, personified by Danu. Numerous rivers in Europe bear her name, such as the Don rivers of England, France, Scotland, and Russia. The Irish called themselves the "Tuatha De Danann" the people of the Goddess Danu ".

The Goddess Danu descends from the Vedic tradition, she is the daughter of Daksa and wife of Muni. Its interesting how in the Irish tradition her father is known as Dagda which is similar to Daksa espescially when we consider the "K" and "G" and their phonetic similarity. In the word Danu means "flowing water" she was know as the Goddess of rivers, being the daughter of Daksa she was also the sister of the wife of Lord Shiva. For those billion plus souls who follow and practice Vedic tradition the Lia Fail stone is recognised as the Shiva Linga, espescially when one considers its Vedic and family connection to Goddess Danu, Sati and Lord Shiva.
