Talk:Endovelicus

Serious editing
All of these articles on Lusitanian deities are in need of serious editing. Unfortunately, I have no resources available regarding the mythology of the Lusitanians and thus am not able to do more than correct some of the spelling and grammar. Please feel free to expand this article in any way you can. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.113.86.77 (talk) 20:48, 21 April 2005‎

None of the external links is currently working. How are we supposed to deal with this? --Xyzt1234 (talk) 22:53, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

What Olivares says
Here’s all that Olivares of the University of Alicante has to say in his article on the god at http://www4.uwm.edu/celtic/ekeltoi/volumes/vol6/6_12/olivares_6_12.html:

"'The first thing that is seen from his inscriptions is the relationship of the god with the private or family environment. Of the 51 inscriptions to the god that have a named dedicator, 17 were by women, some 33% of the dedications. This is a very high proportion, much higher than for the rest of the Hispanic deities (excluding Arentius and therefore Vaelicus) and is similar to the data that we have for the dedications to the indigenous gods Apollo and Mercury in the rest of western Europe. The oracular and healing character of Endouellicus, and his association with the individual and the family are, in our opinion, the most outstanding features of the inscriptions, and they profile a divine typology comparable to that which we have for Lugus or Arentius, which is not contradicted by the location of the sanctuary of this god on a small hill.'"

Quite whence all the 'information' about 'Lucifer' in reference to this theonym comes in the temples and cults section, I'd love to know! The Spanish and Portuguese versions of this Wikipedia article are not nearly as lengthy. Clearly more must have been written in English about this god than in the languages of the countries of the Iberian peninsula where he was once worshipped!!!

Self art
I am deleting the depiction of Endovelicus. Self art should be treated as self-investigation: original material, not relevant. Voj 2005 (talk) 11:05, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Deleted link
The link to the Paleohispánica magazine was deleted because it doesn't hold anything relatable to Endovelicus or the Lusitanian gods (but to Tartessic ones, at best): https://ifc.dpz.es/recursos/publicaciones/21/92/_ebook.pdf Voj 2005 (talk) 14:37, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
