==Influence==
In the late 9th century, jarlskona Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan traveled to Ireland and fought a Druidic cult known as the Children of Danu, who strongly believed in their rightful connection to her lands.
==Behind the scenes==
Danu as a name is purely a linguistic reconstruction as the goddess herself doesn't appear in any surviving Irish myths. It is possible she is the same individual as and . Further connections are made to the Welsh deity and even the Vedic via the Proto-Indo-European root *dʰenh₂- "to run, to flow", possibly the root for the river Danube as well. However this theory is not universally accepted by all scholars with other etymologies also being proposed.
