Danu, the most ancient Irish Goddess and the mother of the Irish Gods, belongs to the Tuatha Dé Danann tribe. The tribe invaded Ireland and won in a battle against the Fir Bolg. The Tuatha Dé Danann tribe were later defeated by the mortal Milesians. Upon this defeat, they went to live in hollow hills where they became the Faery Folk who are spoken of in so many legends. The Tuatha Dé Danaan, and Danu herself, were associated with craftsmanship, magic, music and poetry.
Danu is a Goddess of fertility and some believe that the Danube river was named after Her. She is close to the land and waters as she is the mother of the faeries. She is often believed to have opposing characteristics, the mother Goddess and the warrior Goddess.
