Baduhenna
In Germanic paganism, Baduhenna is a goddess. Baduhenna is solely attested in Tacitus's Annals where Tacitus records that a sacred grove in ancient Frisia was dedicated to her, and that near this grove 900 Roman soldiers were killed in 28 AD by the Frisii. Scholars have analyzed the name of the goddess and linked the figure to the Germanic Matres and Matronae.
