Re: [tied] Artemis: Twin

Sorry, I use the wrong words. I didn't mean 'Twins", but just brother and sister.

Oengus is never represented as a twin in Irish myth (though he IS given a sister) as far as I know.

Which is not to say that Oengus did not have Dioskouric traits - but rather that Brigit is not necessarily his "twin" (despite being, like Oengus, a child of the Dagda).

Apollon & Artemis was a couple of twin gods. Is it possible to connect them with other similar couples of twins...

UTU and INANA

FREYR and FREYJA

OENGUS and BRIGIT
