Goddess of Celtic mythology, associated with war, death, sex and life. He was one of the primitive and mythical inhabitants of Ireland known as Tuatha De ("people of gods"). Its name may be associated with rigan ( "queen" ), which is perhaps a latinization by regina, ae ( "queen") and not its original name, since the first mentions about it are in the ecclesiastical realm of the ninth century; instead mor yes would be an ancient Celtic voice from Scandinavian to define the "nightmare", the "terrifying", or perhaps it comes from the archaic Irish moor ( "big, magnificent") . In current Irish it is usually written as Mor-rioghain. See Carrie .
