Suleviae

Dedications to Sulevia(e) are attested in about forty inscriptions, distributed quite widely in the Celtic world, but with particular concentrations in Noricum, among the Helvetii, along the Rhine, and also in Rome.

[2] In the same vein, Patrizia de Bernardo Stempel connects Suleviae with Welsh hylyw 'leading (well)' and Breton helevez 'good behaviour'.

[5][6] Van Andringa interprets the Suleviae as "native domestic divinities honoured at all social levels".

This theory is disputed by some researchers who find no direct links with Sulis, and suggest instead that the similarity in names is coincidental.

[2] Another theory connects the Suleviae with the Xulsigiae, known from a site at Trier;[8] but this suggestion has also been contested.
