Camulos is a ram-horned god whose name means ‘the Powerful One’.  He is originally from Belgium, and though there is only one inscription, and a plaque mentioned earlier, coins dedicated to him have also been found around Colchester in Essex, and there are also old place names which were associated with him.  These are Camulodunum (meaning ‘Fort of Camulos’), the old name for Colchester; Cambodunum, now Slack in Yorkshire; and Camulosessa (‘Seat of Camulos’) in southern Scotland.
