Selvans
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". In Etruscan mythology and religion, Selvans is god of the woodlands and boundaries, including sacred boundaries.[1] He is possibly cognate with Roman Silvanus. As the god of boundaries, he is known by the epithet tularias as stated by a dedication of a statue to the god.[1][2] His name is 10th on the list of 16 gods on the outer rim of the Piacenza Liver (a bronze model of a sheep’s liver used as a reference or teaching tool for divination).[2] Votive inscriptions from the liver show that he was a popular god in Etruria.[1]
Only one certain representation of Selvans has been found, alongside a statue of Culśanś. He is portrayed as a naked youth wearing a cap made of a bear’s hide and high boots.[1] This contrasts from the Roman Silvanus, who is usually shown as a bearded man.[1]
