Epona was the Celtic/Roman goddess protectress of horses and riders in general and foals in particular. She is usually depicted riding sideways on a horse, surrounded by foals, and was also worshiped as a mother goddess symbolising fertility and growth. The word 'epo' means 'horse', and 'na' makes it divine and female, so Epona translates as 'Divine Mare'.
