The first piece of evidence for Cernunnos is the altar carving found in Notre Dame in Paris in 1710 CE which reads ‘ERNUNNO’, with the first and last letters lost through erosion.  This carving from 17CE does not seem to show an antlered god, as Cernunnos is popularly perceived today, but rather a god with shorter horns.  There has been speculation that the horns seen on this image are in fact those of a bull, rather than those of a stag.
