Template:Short description Gontia (Template:IPAc-en) was a Celtic goddess. She was the tutelary deity of the river Günz,[1] near Günzburg in Germany. She is known from an inscription on a Roman-era altar at Günzburg (Template:Langx)[2] that reads Gontiae / sac(rum) / G(aius!) Iulius / Faventianus / (centurio) leg(ionis) I Ital(icae),[3] 'Gaius Julius Faventianus, centurion of the Legio I Italica, (made) this offering to Gontia'.
