Fig. 146, a coin of the Turones, whose ancient capital is now Tours, consists of a specky or spectral horse accompanied by an urn: this urn was the symbol of the Virgin, and the reader will be familiar with a well-known modern picture in which La Source is ambiguously represented as a maiden standing with a pitcher at a spring. _Yver_ is Norse for a _warm bubbling spring_, and on the coins of Vergingetorix we find the pitcher and the horse: the word _virgin_ is equivalent to _Spring Queen_, and as _ceto_ figures largely in British mythology as the ark, box, or womb of Ked, it is probable that Virgingetorix may be interpreted King Virgin Keto. In Gaul _rex_ meant King or Queen, but this word is less radical than the Spanish _rey_, French _roi_, British _rhi_: according to Sir John Rhys, "the old Irish _ri_, genitive _rig_, king, and _rigan_ queen would be somewhat analogous, although the Welsh _rhian_, the equivalent of the Irish _rigan_, differs in being mostly a poetic term for a lady who need not be royal".[319] The name Maria, which in Spain is bestowed indiscriminately upon men and women, would therefore seem to be _Mother Queen_, and _Rhea_, the Great Mother of Candia, might be interpreted as _the Princess_ or _the Queen_.

From _A New Description of England and Wales_ (Anon, 1724).] Among inscriptions to the Gaulish Apollo the most common are those in which he is entitled Albiorix and Toutiorix: these are understood by the authorities as having meant respectively "King of the World," and "King of the People". With the Cornish Well known as Joan's Pitcher may be connoted the variety of large bottle called a _demijohn_: according to Skeat this curious term is from the French _damejeanne_, Spanish _damajuana_--"Much disputed but _not_ of Eastern origin. The French form is right as it stands though often much perverted. From French _dame_ (Spanish _dama_), lady; and Jeanne (Spanish Juana), Joan, Jane." In our word _pitcher_ the _t_ has been wrongly inserted, the French _picher_ is the German _becher_, Greek _bikos_, and all these terms including _beaker_ are radically Peggy, Puck or Big. Pitchers are one of the commonest sepulchral offerings, and we are told that the Iberian bronze-working brachycephalic invaders of Britain introduced the type of sepulchral ceramic known as the beaker or drinking cup: "This vessel," says Dr. Munro, "was almost invariably deposited beside the body, and supposed to have contained food for the soul of the departed on its way to the other world."[320] The German form of Peggy or Margaret is Gretchen, which resolves into Great _Chun_ or Great _Mighty Chief_: Margot and Marghet may be rendered _Big God_ or _Fairy God_ or _Mother Good_.
