In Irish mythology, Abhean (Script error: No such module "IPA".), son of Bec-Felmas, was a poet of the Tuatha Dé Danann, and in particular of Lugh. He was killed by Óengus in front of Midir, according to a poem by Fland Mainistreach in Lebor Gabála Érenn.[1][2]
Etymology
The reconstructed Proto-Celtic lexica at the universities of Leiden[3] and Wales[4] suggest that this name may be derived from Proto-Celtic *Ad-bej-ānos, literally meaning 'at-striking-related-one' and possibly denoting the concept of 'harp-strumming'.
