Irish Gods: Dian Cecht

Got this from Wikipedia.

In Irish mythology, Dian Cécht (Old Irish pronunciation [dʲiːən kʲeːxt]; also known as Cainte or Canta) was the god of healing, the healer for the Tuatha Dé Danann. He was the father of Cu, Cethen and Cian.[1] His other children were Miach, Airmed, Étan the poet and Ochtriullach.[2][3] Dian Cécht is described as a son of the Dagda in the Dindsenchas.
